The last 25 years have been marked by truly revolutionary events in fundamental oncology. The rapid development of molecular genetics, in particular, the discovery of oncogenes and antioncogenes, has radically changed the understanding of the mechanisms of the onset of neoplasms [2, 15]. Nevertheless, it is generally accepted that progress in the theoretical field has had little effect on the state of affairs in clinical oncology. The content of this review is intended to demonstrate the groundlessness of such assertions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
