A metabolic perspective of Peto's paradox and cancer.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 19 Jul 2015

Dang Chi V

Abstract excerpt

The frequency of cancer is postulated to be proportional to the number of cells an animal possesses, as each cell is similarly exposed to mutagens with every cell division. Larger animals result from more cell divisions with more mutagenic exposure, and hence are expected to have higher frequenci...
