The majority of genetic HL cases in China were attributed to variants in four specific genes: gap junction beta‐2 gene (GJB2; OMIM accession number: 121011; NC_000013.11 GRCh38.p14), solute carrier family 26 member 4 gene (SLC26A4; OMIM accession number: 605646; NC_000007.14 GRCh38.p14), mitochondrially encoded 12S RNA (MT‐RNR1; OMIM accession number: 561000; NC_012920.1 GRCh38.p14), and gap junction beta‐3 gene (GJB3; OMIM accession number: 603324; NC_000001.11 GRCh38.p14) (Fu et al., 2019). This evidence concerns the gene GJB2 and Hodgkins lymphoma.
