A biophysical approach to cancer dynamics: Quantum chaos and energy turbulence

Quantum Biology: Does quantum physics hold the key to revolutionizing medicine?

“…Researchers have established a quantum dynamic framework to explain the theory of mutation, landscapes of biological energy, patterns of cell communication and the cancer interactome under the influence of quantum chaos. Uthamacumaran was able to establish a multidimensional model of quantum evolution by adaptive mutation in cancer biology using a mathematical approach which aimed to identify key signalling pathways required for the phenotypic reprogramming of cancer through an epigenetic landscape, as well as help to understand the cancer interactome mathematically by linking up experimental and theoretical oncology [88] .…”

“…Quantum theory has been shown to be relevant for developing models with the potential to explain cancer related biological and biochemical processes cancer including the effects of carcinogens on DNA, the mechanism of interactions of chemotherapy drugs with genetic material [89] ; as well as the understanding of DNA mutations and defective protein synthesis [90] . If it is possible to devise a way to mathematically model the behaviour of cancer cells, this could potentially facilitate a deeper understanding of a patient's unique cancer and possibly lead to the development of more targeted and personalised treatment specifically adapted for a particular patient [88] . Aside from therapeutic applications, the principles of quantum physics may also be able to aid with diagnosis by improving the efficiency and sensitivity of ability to detect diseased tissue through the development of quantum cascade lasers [91] .…”

Chaos, Adaptation and Information are the Main Pillars of Carcinogenesis

“…Uthamacumaran published an interesting hypothetical article. In this article, author tried to explain cancer with quantum chaos concept and stated that "A multi-dimensional model of quantum evolution by adaptive selection has been established for cancer biology" [40]. Fractal entropy is a model recently proposed by Garland which again places metabolism centre stage in cancer development.…”

A review of applications of principles of quantum physics in oncology: do quantum physics principles have any role in oncology research and applications?

“…77 In this endeavour, quantum mechanics principles appear as the referential knowledge for illuminating cancer research at the atomic level, and to open new and broader perspectives for new effective, targeted, accurate and personalised treatments. 77 Uthamacumaran 1 has suggested that cancer has evolved through quantum-selective adaptations to the environment over the generations, and there is currently much debate and a good deal of excitement in the medical sciences that, one day, the cure for cancer may be found at a quantum level. 2 According to Davies, 78 there are many suggestions claiming that quantum mechanics not only provides the basis of shapes and sizes of organic molecules but also drives the operation of living organisms.…”

“…14 The potential to be able to mathematically model the behaviour of cancer cells can likely assist researchers in understanding a patient's unique cancer and allow for the development of a more targeted and personalised treatment that can be adapted for patient's specific cancer treatment. 1 The principles of quantum physics have also been used to improve the sensitivity and efficiency in the detection of diseased tissue through the development of quantum cascade lasers. 15 According to Bassan, 15 the quantum cascade lasers is an improvement upon the current standard Fourier-transform infrared microscopy technology.…”
