Cancer progression - The advancement of cancer due to genetic or epigenetic alterations in tumor cells, involving a complex interplay between tumor cells, surrounding non-neoplastic cells, and the extracellular matrix. Oncogenes - Mutated cellular proto-oncogenes that cause hyper-activation of signaling pathways, contributing to cancer progression by changing the tumor microenvironment, angiogenesis, and inflammation. Tumor suppressors - Genes that, when inactivated, eliminate negative reg...
