Contributions of the Gordon-Kosswig melanoma system to the present concept of neoplasia.

Pigment cell research - 1 Feb 1991

Abstract excerpt

Modern cancerology is based on the oncogene concept. This is rather new. The idea of the oncogene, however, is old, and can be traced back to two sources, namely to "cancer families," reported in 1866 by P. Broka, and to "virus induced" neoplasia, detected by P. Rous in 1911. A gene which is--to my knowledge--the first reported oncogene by definition was detected in the little ornamental Mexican fish Xiphophorus...
