The control of cell differentiation at the genetic level is fundamental to both normal growth of tissues and abnormal growth characteristic of tumors. This volume reviews recent developments in the areas of molecular and cell biology which relate to the role of critical genes in carcinogenesis. Leading researchers in the field of cancer research discuss aberrant cell differentiation, somatic cell genetics, cell to cell interaction in relation to tumor promotion, and the role of oncogenes and cellular genes in ...

The control of cell differentiation at the genetic level is fundamental to both normal growth of tissues and abnormal growth characteristic of tumors. This volume reviews recent developments in the areas of molecular and cell biology which relate to the role of critical genes in carcinogenesis. Leading researchers in the field of cancer research discuss aberrant cell differentiation, somatic cell genetics, cell to cell interaction in relation to tumor promotion, and the role of oncogenes and cellular genes in differentiation. Several critical genes responsible for carcinogenesis have been identified.
