Cancer Depends on Biophysics to Get Started
Researchers document evidence that cancer is triggered by disruption of the normal physical characteristics of the cell environment, which removes suppression on oncogenic genes. The process for initiation of cancer is termed “Load (with a gene variant) and Trigger (by a dysregulated biophysical environment)”.
