What else can I help you with?
Can a wasp sting on your breast give you breast cancer?
No. Breast cancer is in the cells and may also be DNA related.
How is DNA replication related to the development and progression of cancer?
DNA replication is a crucial process in cell division and growth. Errors in DNA replication can lead to mutations, which can contribute to the development and progression of cancer. These mutations can disrupt normal cell functions and lead to uncontrolled cell growth, a hallmark of cancer.
What is the relationship between DNA and cancer?
The relationship between Cancer and DNA cancer begins when mutations distrupt the normal cell cycle, causing cells to divide in an uncontrolled way.
Why would DNA polymerase be useful in a potential anti cancer drug?
DNA polymerase can fill the gaps in the DNA that are left by removal of damage bases. DNA polymerase can help cancer cells to tolerate DNA damage.
How are cancer and DNA the same?
they aren't.
Do cancer cells have DNA?
Yes Cancer cells have DNA, just like all the rest of the cells in your (or any organisms body). The only difference is that a cancer cells DNA has been mutated (changed) and not harms the body it is a part of (usually through continual mitosis). Hope this Helps
What is meant by constitutional DNA and its role in cancer detection?
Constitutional DNA means the normal DNA of a patient with a cancer (from blood for example). It is possible to compare the constitutional DNA from healthy tissue to tumor DNA from the cancer to know the mutations that are important for tumor formation.
Are almost all early onset cancers due to familial inheritance?
No not all cancer's are family or genetically passed on. You may have the genetic code that says you can have it but as you get older you might not even see oncoming symtons or not even see anything related to the cancer when you go to the doctor to see if you have any chance of getting the cancer passed along with your DNA. Even though you have it in you DNA doesn't always mean your going to get the cancer.
Is cancer part of DNA?
Cancer is not part of DNA. Change in DNA. may cause cancer . Some people may be born with faulty DNA which might cause the cells that read the faulty section of DNA to reproduce uncontrollably, but on the other hand, exposure to radiation or carcinogens may cause the DNA in a few specific cells to mutate and thus not be controllable by the rest of the cells in your body.
Is cancer related to cells?
Cancers ARE cells. Carcinomas are nothing more than cells that have 'gone bad'. Their DNA gets screwed up and they grow out of control.
What is the relationship between DNA and cancer?
DNA mutations play a key role in the development of cancer. Changes in the DNA sequence can lead to uncontrolled cell growth and division, which are characteristics of cancer cells. These mutations can be inherited or acquired over time due to various factors such as exposure to carcinogens or errors in DNA replication. Understanding the relationship between DNA and cancer is crucial for developing targeted treatments and prevention strategies.
Are a nucleus and DNA related?
They are related to the extent that DNA is located in a cell nucleus.
