Overview
Cancer is a group of diseases characterised by uncontrolled cell proliferation, evasion of growth suppression and apoptosis, and the capacity to invade tissues and metastasise. It arises from the accumulation of genetic and epigenetic alterations that dysregulate signalling, gene expression and cell-cycle control, and its study spans molecular biology, genomics, proteomics, epidemiology and clinical oncology. Understanding the molecular drivers of malignancy supports the discovery of biomarkers, the identification of therapeutic targets, and the design of screening, prevention and treatment strategies. Research in this area includes GR-RNF43 regulation and gene-expression analysis of butyrate-induced apoptosis resistance in colorectal cancer; ACE gene polymorphism in relation to hypertension, stroke and prostate cancer; integrated proteomic and genomic techniques applied to cancer diagnostics and personalised medicine; cellular mechanics and therapeutic resistance in cancer relapse; and a theoretical account linking nervous-system adaptation to chronic disease. Epidemiological and clinical contributions address cervical, breast, thyroid and colorectal cancer screening and outcomes across diverse populations, including programmes in Ethiopia, Brunei, Oman and Africa, alongside dietary and lifestyle intervention for colorectal cancer. Complementary and alternative approaches to prevention are also examined. Across these strands the field connects the molecular and genetic basis of malignancy to diagnosis, treatment resistance, screening and population-level control, advancing both mechanistic understanding and clinical management of cancer.
