Q

The 3 phases/steps in carcinogenesis

A
  1. initiation- an event (often a carcinogenic agent) that causes the permanent genetic alteration that gives the cell neoplastic potential
  2. Promotion- an event that stimulates clonal proliferation of the initiated neoplastic cell*
  3. Progression- the process leading to malignant behavior (invasion and spread)

*reversible (step 3 can be reversible or irreversible)
