Abstract
The increasingly raised morbidity of hematological malignancies have attracted much attention from scientists and clinicians in recent years, especially the childhood leukemia, It has been demonstrated that extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields is closely related to pediatric leukemia. The extremely lowfrequency electromagnetic fields might change the size, appearance, quantity, chemical state and energy of cellular biological molecules and induce cascade reaction via effects on cell-to-cell signal transduction, cell proliferation and apoptosis, gene expression and DNA damage, etc, subsequently promote the development of childhood leukemia. This paper overviewed the recent advances of relationship between the extremely lowfrequency electromagnetic fields and childhood leukemia. Key words: Childhood leukemia; Electromagnetic fields; Extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields
