Cancer – Causes and Symptoms
by redsaf
Cancer is a condition where cells grow uncontrollably, or abnormally. It can occur anywhere in the body and can be deadly. Each person has trillions of cells. Normally, these cells divide to form new ones, and the body uses them to maintain itself. However, cancer can develop when these cells fail to die when they should, crowding out normal cells in the process. The result is a tumour, which can be benign or cancerous.
When cancer invades the brain, it can press on nearby nerves and interfere with function. Headaches and weakness of one side of the body can be symptoms of cancer in the brain. Sometimes the immune system reacts to cancer cells, resulting in symptoms such as seizures and difficulty walking. Symptoms can also vary depending on the type of cancer. The symptoms of cancer may vary greatly from person to person, but in most cases, cancer is discovered when the patient presents with symptoms.
If cancer cells become too numerous, they may spread throughout the body. Cancer cells may spread to distant areas of the body, including the bones, lungs, or brain. These cancer cells travel through the blood and lymphatic systems and may lodge in other organs. This is called metastasis. While most cancer cells die before spreading, a few can survive and grow into a new tumor. If they spread to the bone, the cancer is referred to as metastatic.
Cancer is the result of abnormal cell differentiation. The abnormality in cell differentiation occurs when tumor cells fail to respond to the signals that normally cause normal cells to enter G0. These cells then continue to divide and reach high cell densities. In this way, cancer mimics the uncontrolled growth that occurs in the body. Cancer is the result of a mutation in the gene that controls the growth of healthy cells. The genes responsible for faulty cell differentiation can also cause cancer.
While smoking is the number one cause of lung cancer, cigarette smoking and a poor diet are also risk factors. While sun exposure and smoking are known to increase the risk of developing cancer, the actual causes of the disease are far more complex and varied. In addition to genetic mutations, other factors affect the likelihood of cancer development. Regardless of the cause, the genes involved in cancer development play a role in determining the prognosis and treatment.
The presence of tumor cells and their interplay with other components of tissues is another factor that influences the prognosis of cancer. Malignant cells secrete proteases that break down the extracellular matrix (ECM), allowing the cancer to invade adjacent normal tissues. Collagenase is one of these enzymes. Growth factors also promote angiogenesis. Angiogenesis is important for supporting the growth of a tumor over a million cells. New blood vessels are necessary to supply oxygen and nutrients to the proliferating tumor cells.
Many types of cancer have certain risk factors. These factors increase the chances of developing the disease and make the body less resistant to it. Fortunately, there are ways to protect yourself from these risk factors through regular screenings and prevention of specific risk factors. While there are no known cures for most cancers, some are associated with risk factors and may need to be monitored. Cancer researchers are still learning about how these genes work. They can improve our lives by preventing certain cancer risks.
