A change in the Cell cycle causes Lung cancer or any other cancer. lung cancer doesn't affect the cell cycle. In the interphase of the cell there are three phases G1, S and the G2 phase . generally the cells enter G0(g zero) phase if further division of cells is not needed. this is controlled by the cell cycle regulatory compounds(cyclins and kinases). If the cell doesn't enter the G0 phase, this causes continuous division of them and called a cancer. this is brought up by Carcinogens (cancer causing agents).
lung cancer:primary or metastatic primary:small cell carcinoma(25%) or non-small cell carcinoma(75%) non-small cell carcinoma(75%): squamous cell carcinoma(35%), adenocarcinoma(25%), large cell carcinoma(15%)
Small cell lung cancer
Small cell lung cancer is a disease in which the cells of the lung tissues grow uncontrollably and form tumors.
The lung cell cycle is the process by which lung cells grow and divide to form new cells. This cycle consists of several phases, including interphase (cell growth and DNA replication) and mitosis (cell division). Proper regulation of the lung cell cycle is essential for normal lung function and tissue repair.
Well, honey, non-small cell lung cancer makes up about 85% of all lung cancer cases. So, if you're dealing with lung cancer, chances are it's more likely to be the non-small cell type. But hey, cancer is cancer, and it's all a pain in the butt no matter how you slice it.
lung cancer can be dangerous one it shortenes your life span by alot and twohaving lung cancer sucks
cancer of the lungs There are many types . . . non-small cell carcenoma, which includes squamous cell, adenocarcenoma, bronchioalveolar, and large-cell undifferentiated carcenoma. There is also small cell lung cancer.
Non-small cell lung cancer usually appears in the outer area of the lung. This is the more treatable/survivable of lung cancer because since it is in the periphery it can be excised (taken out) surgically.
small cell cancer
My husband was just diagnosed with secondary liver cancer. I would like to know what is the difference between small cell and larger cell cancer. This is refering to small cell and large cell lung cancer, so I don't know how helpful it'll be: Small cell lung cancer is called this because the cancer cells are small cells that are mostly filled with the nucleus. Small cell cancer spreads early on, so radiotherapy, rather than surgery, is suggested. Large cell lung cancer is called this because the cells look large and rounded. This type of cancer spreads more quickly. source: http://www.cancerhelp.org.uk/type/lung-cancer/about/types-of-lung-cancer#large
