Understanding Cancer in Golden Retrievers
... For a normal cell to become a cancer, it must achieve the following capabilities: • it must be able to tell itself to multiply • it must be able to defy outside signals to stop multiplying • it must be able to invade other tissues where it wouldn’t normally grow • it must be able to replicate endles ...
