Rereading the genetic origin of cancer: the puzzle of all eras

Abstract

Abstract This is a scientific introduction to review the concept of cancer from a purely genetic perspective in which we try to link the development of tumors by the driving force of the evolution of living beings: the mutations. And to prove the assumption that cancer diversity has a parallel route instead of the whole development process of the cell. Calling for expanding the rolling concept of cancer and tumors definition in general. Which may contribute to altering the angle of our vision to this dangerous biological phenomenon. This call is based on the hypothesis that cancer is a genetic phenomenon that has arisen on the margins of the evolution process, that has continued since the beginning of creation. The pieces of evidence and indications that support this view were presented successively.
