The Evolution of Carcinogenesis

22 Jul 2018

Abstract excerpt

The recent discovery that an osteosarcoma was found in a 1.7-million-year old bone from a hominin in South Africa (Odes et al. 2016) suggests that cancer has been a disease that has afflicted the human species for thousands of generations. This view is also supported by a number of other reports suggesting the presence of this disease including multiple myeloma, prostate and breast cancer in humans between 230...
