Ageusia - ANSWER: Loss or absence of the sense of taste
Allogenic marrow transplantation - ANSWER: Transfer of marrow from donor to
another person who is not genetically identical
Antineoplastic agents - ANSWER: Chemical agents (cytotoxics, immuniologic
preparations, hormones) or meds used to prevent the development, maturation or
spread of neoplastic cells
antioxidants - ANSWER: molecules (ie. vitamins) that blcok action of activated
oxygen molecules (free radicals) that can demage cells
antologous marrow transplantation - ANSWER: transfer of marrow from the pt's own
tissue (from hematopietic stem cells)
cancer cachexia - ANSWER: wt loss, anorexia, wasting, immunosuppression, altered
BMR, abnormalitis in fluid & energy metabolism, lessening of the body's fat & muscle
stores that accompanies advanced CA even with adequate nutrition.
carcinogen - ANSWER: an agent (physical, chemical, or viral) that induces CA

process that proceeds on a continuum but is often described in stages of initiation,

to exogenous stimuli, produce metabolic changes & wating
