Carcinogenesis
Carcinogenesis
It is the process by which normal cell are
transformed into cancer sell
Cancer
Cancer is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cell in the
body.cancer develops when the body's normal control
mechanism stop working
It's caused by the progressive changes at cellular
genetic and epigenetic level that ultimately reprogram a
cell to undergo uncontrolled cell division to form a
malignant mass
Characters of cancer
1. Metastasis
Cancer spread on others part of the body
2. Angiogenesis
In tumour makes blood vessels which requires of oxygen
and nutrients
3.Clonal origin
Dublication of same cell
4.Proliferate rapidly
Cells division rapidly
5.Insensitivity to growth signals
VEGF ( vascular endothelial growth factor)
Carcinogen
Carcinogen are the substances which causes cancer
1. Radiation induced cancer
Up to 10 % of cancer are related to radiation exposure
including both ionising and non ionising
Radiation exposure ---- Leukaemia
Radon predominantly cause----Lung Cancer
Iodine 131---- Thyroid cancer
Ionising radiation---- Skin cancer
2. Occupational cancer
Cancer Source Examples
• Bladder
• Kidney
• Larynx
• Leukaemia
Benzidine
Cadmium
Asbestos
Formaldehyde
Textile industry
Metal working
Petroleum
Rubber manufacturing
3.Oncovirus
Virus Associated cancer
Hipatitis 'B' Hepatocarcinoma
Hepatitis 'C'
HPV (human
papilloma virus)
Hepatocarcinoma
Cancer of Cervix, vulva, vagina
Epstein Barr virus Nasopharyngeal carcinoma
4. Gene linked to the cancer
The genes which contribute to cause cancer
are!
A. Tumor suppressor gene
Mutation in
BRCA-I
BRCA-II Women breast cancer
B. Oncogene
Proto-oncogene Oncogene
Mutation
Viral infection
Oncogene produces oncoprotien which cause tumor
Two common oncogene are
HER
RAS
Found in breast and ovarian
Cell growth or death
5.Bacteria
H pylori cause Adenocarcinoma
6. Food and drink linked to the cancer
Consumption of alcohol develope
Head
Neck
Liver
Breast
Cholesterol
Cancer
Treatment
1. Surgery
2. Radiotherapy
3. Medicines
E.g. vincristine (Leukaemia)
Podophyllotoxin (HPV infection
4. Methotrexate Breast, lung cancer
