What can cause the cell cycle to be uncontrolled?
what can cause the cell cycle to be uncontrolled is that if a pathogen gets into the cell the cell will turn into a cancer cell and that will make the cell cycle uncontrolled
if your cell turns into a cancer cell then you will have cancer cells reproducing faster than a normal cell(a normal cell is supposed to reproduce every 22 hour's a cancer cell reproduces every 10 hours)
What happens to you get cancer?

Which answer best explains why it is unlikely that there will be a single cure for cancer?
The direct answer to the question is "We don't know."
Some argue that there are cures for most cancers, but they have not been made public, though others argue that any 'cures" are simply not effective and do not cure cancer at all.
Some claim the problem with there being no cures for cancer is an economic issue; that the supposed cures involving herbs, diet, etc. are not supported by the established medical community, so money is not made available to do the proper studies, while money is made available to study drugs that are patentable. A few go so far as to make accusations that cures for cancer that are not pharmaceutical drugs, radiation, or surgery are suppressed, though those are just that: accusations which are vehemently denied.
In all fairness to both views, cancer is not an easy disease to treat, and what works for one person may not work for another. It is also possible that cancer needs to be treated using a combination of approaches, but that the division between the established medical community and the alternative community prevents them from working together.
Whatever the reasons, there are some cancers for which chemotherapy drugs are very effective, while they are not effective for other types of cancer. There are also accounts of people being healed of cancer using other methods.

What is the prognosis for perineural cysts?
It depends on the type of cyst. I know that some cysts will eventually just burst and go away. When they burst, there is a high likelihood that it will cause pain and a dark red discharge. This is something that needs to be discussed with your OBGYN for a better understanding.
No. Mouth cancer is often the result of a chronic habit/addiction, such as chewing tobacco or smoking a pipe (although some mouth cancers arise spontaneously). Cancers, however, are not communicable from person to person.
What type of cancer is tongue and throat cancer?
esophageal cancer is associated with the tongue and throat.
Is it safe to get pregnant after the first dose of cervical cancer vaccine?
If you have cervical cancer then nothing is safe. You will die if it is not treated.
What lab tests are done to diagnose cancer?
There are different markers, each one indicates a different kind of cancer.
There markers on themselve can't diagnose cancer, which can't be done in the lab. We can only monitor the process of the tumor.
Some examples of there markers are CEA (Carcino-Embryonal Adenome), CA 19.9 (Cancer Antigen) and CA 15.3.
HCG (Human Choriongonadotrofin) can also be used to monitor certain kinds of tumors.
Hope this helps.

Is the throat disturbance will leads to throat cancer?
Throat disturbances alone do not necessarily lead to throat cancer. Throat disturbances, such as a sore throat or hoarseness, can be caused by various factors, including infections, allergies, smoking, or excessive vocal strain. However, some throat disturbances can be symptoms of throat cancer, so it's essential to pay attention to persistent or unusual symptoms and seek medical advice if you are concerned.
Throat cancer, also known as laryngeal or pharyngeal cancer, is primarily linked to certain risk factors, including:
Smoking: Tobacco use, including cigarettes and chewing tobacco, is one of the most significant risk factors for throat cancer.
Alcohol: Heavy alcohol consumption can increase the risk of throat cancer, especially when combined with smoking.
Human Papillomavirus (HPV): Some strains of HPV are associated with an increased risk of throat cancer, particularly in the oropharyngeal region.
Age: Throat cancer is more common in older individuals.
Gender: Men are more likely to develop throat cancer than women.
Family history: A family history of throat cancer may increase the risk.
Exposure to certain chemicals or irritants in the workplace: Occupational exposure to certain chemicals or fumes may raise the risk of throat cancer.
What are the two types of cancer?
Malignantis cancerous. Malignant tumors can invade and destroy nearby tissue and spread to other parts of the body.
Benign is not cancerous. Benign tumors may grow larger but do not spread to other parts of the body.
How do you tell someone you've got cancer?
I'd just tell them outright... maybe in a manner similar to how James Stewart's character told John Wayne's character he had cancer in The Shootist. Yeah, that's how I'd do it.
But, the reality of it is that you know the person you'll be telling this to - your judgment on how to go about this is going to be the best one to use.
Best of luck to you.
Epidemiological studies suggested an association between isopropyl alcohol and paranasal sinus cancer; however, subsequent analysis suggests that the "strong-acid" process used to manufacture isopropyl alcohol may be responsible for these cancers [ACGIH 1991]. The International Agency for Research on Cancer has concluded that the evidence for the carcinogenicity of this process is adequate but that the evidence for isopropyl alcohol itself is inadequate [IARC 1987].

In America what is the colon cancer survival rate?
The survival rates for colon cancer depend on in which stage the cancer is originally detected. If detected at an early stage, the five year survival rate can be as high as 90%, however if the cancer goes undetected into a distant stage, the five year survival rate can drop dramatically, becoming 12%.
What is primary peritoneal cancer?
This is a very rare cancer which starts in the lining of the abdominal cavity, the peritoneum. Usually in females, peritoneal cancer is caused from metastasis from ovarian cancer, but in females where the ovaries have been removed, it can be primary, which means the site of origin of the cancer (It didn't come from anywhere else."
What body parts does a tumor affect?
A brain tumor can have an unlimited amount of effects. Not only it depends if the tumor is localized or spreads, but it also depends on the specific brain areas it affects. Also, even if a brain tumor is localized, since it is growing, a brain tumor will apply more and more pressure on the surrounding brain areas responsible for different cognitive domains such as memory, language, sensing, decision making...etc...
The chemicals of the tumor may also affect how the person interacts with others. They may develop a temper, be angry, have trouble understanding and lose their concept of time.
What is inflammatory breast cancer?
Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is the most aggressive form of breast cancer and is in a class of its own. Because there is usually no lump, this type of breast cancer, mammograms/ultrasounds do not generally detect ibc. IBC grows in nests and sheets and in most cases will be diagnosed clinically. The symptoms can be a mass on your breast that appears suddenly, a breast that is one cup size larger than your other breast, a rash, mosquito bite or what appears to be a bruise. If symptoms don't dissipate within a week after beginning an antibiotic, please insist on a skin or punch biopsy. Although this type of breast cancer is aggressive, and frightening, IF you know the symptoms and are treated immediately, yes, you can be an ibc survivor! IBC is treated with chemo first, not surgery because it is in the dermal (skin) lymphatic system. Don't ever hesitate to get another opinion if the doctor says it's nothing!
"Knowing the symptoms of IBC and prompt diagnosis is Vital For Survival." Marilyn 'Mare Kirschenbaum

What impact does cannabis have on the lungs?
It is never good for your lungs to inhale smoke; the lungs get dirty and it is difficult to expel the dirt by the normal function of lung cilia, when the dirt is constantly being replenished by continued smoking. Of course, cannabis is not only consumed by smoking. You can also use it to brew tea, which avoids any harm to the lungs although it may still constitute an illegal use of a recreational drug - unless you have a valid medical need for it.
How many people are killed by cancer each year?
Here are the lifetime chances of getting cancer and dying from cancer:
American Cancer Society Reference Information
http://www.cancer.org/docroot/CRI/content/CRI_2_6x_Lifetime_Probability_of_Developing_or_Dying_From_Cancer.asp
And here is the annual rate of cancer deaths in the U.S.:
556,902 cancer deaths in the U.S. in 2002
287,973,924 people in the U.S. in 2002
