Why cancer and inflammation?

The Yale journal of biology and medicine - 1 Dec 2006

Rakoff-Nahoum Seth

Abstract excerpt

Central to the development of cancer are genetic changes that endow these "cancer cells" with many of the hallmarks of cancer, such as self-sufficient growth and resistance to anti-growth and pro-death signals. However, while the genetic changes that occur within cancer cells themselves, such as activated oncogenes or dysfunctional tumor suppressors, are responsible for many aspects of cancer development, they...
