Real world in cancer? Epistemology of the origin of cancer: new paradigm for the majority of cancers

2015-05-01

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> The somatic mutation theory as the origin of cancer (carcinogenesis) was born some 100 years ago, when Theodor Boveri 1914 suggested that a combination of chromosomal defects may result in cancer. This was followed by Karl-Heinrich Bauer in 1928 suggesting that mutations could cause cancer. Subsequently, in 1953 Carl Nordling proposed that a number of mutated genes could cause cancer. Alfred...
