They are smoking cigarettes, stress, unbalanced lifestyle and so on.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium"> It has been on debate but I think it is worth to share an article about cancer, <em>"Cancer etiology. Variation in cancer risk among tissues can be explained by the number of stem cell divisions."</em> by Tomasetti C and Vogelstein B<sup>[[3]]</sup>.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium"> According to the article, the factor playing the most important role in cancer risk is just the total number of divisions of the normal self-renewing cells maintaining that tissues's homeostasis. More intuitively, I brought a news subject reading, "</span><em><span style="font-size: medium">Bad Luck of Random Mutations Plays Predominant Role in Cancer."<sup>[[4]]</sup></span></em></p><h3><span style="font-size: smallmedium">How do you detect cancer?</span></h3><h3><span style="font-size: smallmedium">How do we cure cancer?</span></h3><span style="font-size: smallmedium"><h3>What is aging?</h3></span><span style="font-size: small">What is aging?</spanh3> </h3><h3><span style="font-size: smallmedium">Why do we get old?</span></h3><h3><span style="font-size: smallmedium">How do we meaure biological aging?</span></h3>
