Physicians classify brain tumors and determine treatment options, in part, by the genes they express. According to World ...

Early genetic events in the life of cancer cells, such as changes in the maintenance of telomeric length, or the activation of an oncogene can lead to genome instability. Loss-of-function variants ...

How does a proto-oncogene become converted to an oncogene? (Figure 4) Occasionally, mutations will permanently activate proteins that normally interchange between active or inactive states.

Cancer cells exhibit many phenotypes, such as genomic instability or oncogene activation, that ought to induce apoptosis, but they nonetheless survive. A block in apoptosis is a likely requirement ...
