Guest guest Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 I can accept that somehow when someone has cancer, fewer stem cells are produced, because all cell production relies on metabolic rate (and HGH). New stem cells are apparently not required then because we do build tissue even when they are suppressed. Cancer is on the same list in med. school as the rest of the mitochondrial disorders and autoimmune diseases; all have in common a condition of ATP impairment, which severely reduces cell growth and division.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 It's nice to know details but not much of a revelation, considering that we've known for a long time that gene expression can be changed from outside the cell Duncan > Posted by: " Dave Narby " dnarby@... dnarby > Date: Mon Sep 11, 2006 11:21 am (PDT) > > So much for the possibility of this being a " junk study " ... ; ) > > > General Mechanism Of Cellular Aging Found; Tumor Suppressor Gene > May Be Key > <http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2006/09/060911112719.htm> > > Three separate studies confirm a gene that suppresses tumor cell > growth also plays a key role in aging.
