[The antioxidant properties of tumor cell subpopulations]
Abstract:
A study was made of the antioxidative activity (AOA), of the activity of glytathionreductase and catalase, and of SH-group concentration in suspensions of intact cells from eight fractions of the rat ascitic ovary tumor. A correlative bond was detected between AOA, the activity of antioxidative enzymes, and SH-group concentration. It was shown that antioxidative properties of the fractions containing resting (G0) and polyploid cells were higher than those of proliferating diploid cells.

Cancer-Critical Genes II: Tumor Suppressor Genes
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
Such genes that act...
