The Hallmarks of Cancer
Your immune system can
usually find rule breaking cells
-> Cancer cells are ninjas
Cells acquire the ability to
spread throughout the body
Lack of immune
rejection
Apoptosis is programmed
cell death, cells usually
know when they become
dangerous to the body
Evading apoptosis
Limitless
replicative
potential
Cells can usually only divide a limited amount
– cancer becomes nearly immortal
Invasion and
metastasis
Sustained
Angiogenesis
Angiogenesis is the
creation of new blood
vessels. Usually there is a
limit in making new
vessels.
Insensitive
to anti-growth
signals
Cell division is usually
controlled by signals from
surrounding cells

Clues round 1
Your research has told you that targeting P has
side effects on normal breast cells. (1)
QY has to be on the
cell membrane to
respond to anti-growth
signals. (1)
The immune system
can tell the difference
between protein C in
normal vs. Breast
Cancer X. (1)
Clues round 1 cont’d
You have found
that when you
experimentally
remove protein V,
BCX can no longer
recruit nutrients
and oxygen. (1)
IO hides deformed
protein C from the
immune system white
blood cells. (1)
You have found that too much protein P allows cells to
replicate an unlimited amount. (1)
ROUND 2 CLUES.
J is a drug pump
that gives BCX
complete resistance
to chemotherapy by
pumping drugs out
of the cell. (2)
You discovered
that OV4
oncolytic
virus can
highjack
protein R to
replicate. (2)
You have produced an antibody against IO that
allows the immune system to find protein C. (2)
IO antibody:
ROUND 2 CLUES CONT’D
You found that if you block protein
X with a drug, oncolytic viruses can
no longer infect BCX. (2)
You discovered
excess levels of
protein P
effectively
repairs DNA even
if radiation is
used. (2)
You have found that
the OV2 virus requires
protein G to replicate
and kill. (2)
Conference clue
An antibody, VXX1 was developed by a biotech company that
can perfectly block protein V’s function. (conference clue)
VXX1:
