Abstract:
In the last ten years molecular biology has defined the role of oncogenes in the pathogenesis of malignant blood diseases. Included among these are: chronic myelogenous leukemia, with abl oncogene; Burkitt's lymphoma, where myc oncogene is translocated from chromosome 8 to chromosomes 2, 14 or 22 near immunoglobulin genes; some acute myelogenous leukemias; myelodysplastic syndromes with deletion of the long arm of chromosome 5.

Abnormal Proliferation
Cancer-Critical Genes I: Proto-oncogenes
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.
