Skin cancer is a process of transformation that cells have been, going from a normal to an uncontrolled and autonomous in terms of proliferation.

This process can occur spontaneously. It is possible to say that something of the occasion.



The factors that affect cells and can cause cancer are:


- Radiation: exponent to high levels of radiation such as gamma and ultraviolet radiation can cause mutations in the cell's DNA. This can result in the genes that control proliferation and repositioning being inhibited.



-Cancer agents: there are highly toxic chemicals that are capable of causing strong aberrations in cells. Having direct contact with these compounds can produce signals in the cell nucleus that affect gene expression and thus cancer is formed.



-transfeccion of DNA: there is a possibility that if there is an exogenous DNA molecule that sea capable of recombining with the genetic material of the cell and this interferes with the control of the replication cycle, cancer will occur. This is more difficult to happen, but it can be induced by some type of gene therapy.



-microorganisms: there are microorganisms capable of causing cancer through various routes. The human papilloma virus has become an example of the genetic virus with the genetic material with the cell it infects.


Other organisms such as fungi are able to release toxic substances that can cause cancer by making contact or being respected.


It is recommended.

  • Avoid strong and frequent radiations. Do not use too much sun, avoid UV light chambers, and contact with other radiations such as x-rays or gamma rays.



  • Avoid contact with carcinogenic substances such as:

Arsenic

Benzene

Plutonium

Hexavalent chromium



  • Take into account the conditions of a gene therapy and in what area it occurs.
  • Knowing a little about the microorganisms that cause cancer and avoiding possible contact can be identified.



Thank you very much and I hope you are careful!
