Causative agent of cancer?
There is some evidence for prior Tuberculosis infection leading to the development of lung cancer. Studies have also looked at Chlamydia pneumoniae and HPV infections possible etiological agents but the verdict is still out on those. (as of Sept. 2011)

Is prostate cancer environmental or genetic?
Prostate cancer is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Genetic predispositions, such as mutations in specific genes like BRCA1 and BRCA2, can increase an individual's risk. Additionally, environmental factors, including diet, lifestyle, and exposure to certain chemicals, also play a significant role in the development of prostate cancer. Ultimately, it is the interaction between these genetic and environmental elements that contributes to the disease.
What factors are associated with causing cancer?
cigarette smoke, air and water pollution, and exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the Sun increase the risk of cancer.
