Abstract
- The article offers information on the natural selection act on parasites to compromise barriers to cancer risks. Topics discussed the factors that disrupt the cellular barriers to cancer as cell-cycle arrest, apoptosis, repression of telomerase, and cell adhesion; highlights high prevalence of microbes with oncogenic potential and focuses that parasites can modulate the oncogenicity of host-associated microbes.
