Abstract excerpt
Recent data on cell oncogenes, recessive mutations of certain genes which result in malignization, protective effects of polyploidy are discussed from the standpoint of mutation hypothesis of carcinogenesis. In general, these data and models confirm main conclusions of the two-step hypothesis of carcinogenesis which was put forward by V. A. Strunnikov in 1958.
