Welcome back to BioCurrent, the podcast where Dalton Sizemore delves into the world of biology as it unfolds in real time. In this episode, we journey into the molecular intricacies of cancer, a disease shrouded in both complexity and misunderstanding. Steering clear of symptom discussions and survival stats, we explore the DNA, proteins, and cellular disorder that turn normal cells deadly.
Discover the fascinating world of cells, where DNA acts as a rulebook guiding their lifecycle. Learn how cancer cells disrupt these rules, leading to uncontrolled growth and the hijacking of nearby cells.
Dive into the hallmarks of cancer, from mutations and DNA repair failures to proto-oncogenes, tumor suppressors, and immune system evasions. Experience a new way of understanding cancer, not as a singular disease, but as a series of molecular missteps offering opportunities for targeted treatments and personal empowerment.
