Understanding How Remnant Cell Division Could Be a Cause of Cancer
In a groundbreaking study conducted by researchers at the University of California San Diego, it has been discovered that remnant cells left behind after cell division are responsible for around half of all cancer cases. This means that the process of cell division itself can be the cause of cancer, rather than the more commonly known mutations and environmental factors. This discovery has opened up a whole new field of research for scientists, and could be the key to understanding and eventually preventing cancer.
