What are the 3 basic tenets of tumor progression?
1. Cancer arises as a result of inactivation of tumor suppressor genes 2. There is a defined order of genetic events that lead to development of a malignant phenotype 3. Variations in the order of events can occur, and it is ultimately the net accumulation of genetic events that determines the phenotypic expression of malignancy.
