    GlossaryCarcinogenesis (Cancer Development)

    process where normal cells become cancerous through genetic mutations

    Carcinogenesis, also known as cancer development or oncogenesis, is the process by which normal cells transform into cancer cells. This involves a series of genetic mutations and epigenetic changes that disrupt normal cell regulation, leading to uncontrolled cell growth and the potential to invade other tissues.
