Cancer results from a diseased genome. Each tumor contains a collection of genomic aberrations that activate oncogenes and inactivate tumor suppressor genes. A recent survey of the scientific literature identified 229 oncogenes (or “dominant” cancer genes) and 62 tumor suppressors (“recessive” cancer genes), suggesting that more than 1% of the human genome may contribute directlyContinue reading “Cancer results from a diseased genome, excited by environmental toxins”
