The production and sale of cigarettes should be illegal in Australia. Smoking is the largest avoidable cause of cancer and is responsible for more cancer deaths than any other factors. Smoking puts a heavy toll on public and private treasuries‚ as it is a financial burden principally from the costs of treating illnesses that arise from smoking. Cigarettes kill up to 6 million people every year‚ a number that is rapidly growing rather than shrinking. According to (WHO 2015)‚ 100 million deaths

In 2011 about 571‚950 Americans are expected to die of cancer that number averages out to about 1‚500 people a day (cancer.org). Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in today’s society. Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled growth and the spread of abnormal cells‚ caused by both external and internal factors (cancer.org). There is nothing a person can do to change the cells that make up the anatomy of their body; we are born with this DNA. However‚ there are precautions

Cancer can sound extremely bad if we aren’t well informed about the topic‚ but is cancer really bad as is sounds? Cancer can also be meaning to tumors in your body‚ with Cancer there’s no giving place where cancer starts exactly at‚ cancer can start almost anywhere in the body (1). What is cancer exactly? Cancer is the division and growth of cells surrounding the tissues. (1). With this type of disease what happens to the body is the lack of energy through the day‚ although cancer isn’t painful

Cancer. Does anyone have a guess at how people it’s going to affect? It’s going to affect 1 out of 2 of us and 1 out of 4 of us will die from it. With all of its special abilities ranging from making abnormal cells grow at a rapid pace to hijacking normal protective checkpoints in our immune system‚ it’s almost impossible to create one nice cure for this disease. Each case is different since cancer doesn’t have a uniform way of attack. It just keeps on going until the human body can’t take it anymore

This study will seek to uncover the role of a recently discovered long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) in controlling the integrity of endothelial cells (ECs) of the arterial wall and its possible role in preventing senescence. 1. Introduction 1.1 Atherosclerosis is a leading cause of death worldwide. Atherosclerosis is the primary cause of heart disease and stroke and‚ thus‚ the most common cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide [1]-[2]. In western societies

Though some in vitro studies report that apln protects against apoptosis‚ its effect on cellular senescence and mammalian aging have never been documented. Additionally‚ there is limited understanding of if and how apln levels vary with age and whether manipulating its level affects the onset and progression of
