What is Retinoblastoma and the Two-Hit Model about?
Cancer is a genetic disease caused by the accumulation of mutations that lead to deregulated cell growth, involving proto-oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes (TSGs), and DNA repair genes. The chapter discusses the roles of these genes in tumorigenesis, the genetic basis of inherited cancer syndromes, and the impact of environmental factors on cancer risk. It also highlights the historical context of cancer research and the identification of oncogenes through studies of retroviruses.
