ONCOPRO PAN Cancer Monitor - Book Test at Low Cost

This test is used to diagnose cancer recurrence. There is an increase in the number of tumor cells circulating in the body, which tends to increase relapse chances.

Cancer

Cancer is a disease in which there is an abnormal growth of cells, which spreads to other parts of the body.

Symptoms of cancer:

• Abnormal bleeding,
• Lumps
• Cough,
• Change in bowel movements
• Weight loss

Risk Factors of Cancer:

• Exposure to carcinogens
• excessive alcohol intake
• Infections
• Tobacco
• Obesity
• Poor diet

Causes of Cancer

In most cancers, 90–95% of cancer cases occur due to mutations of the genes from many environmental factors. And the remaining 5–10% of cancer occurs due to inherited genetics.

Environmental factors are:

• Obesity
• Radiation
• Infection
• Pollution
• Some substances are the reason for the cause of cancer. Such substances are known as Carcinogens

Diet

It plays an essential role in the causation of cancer. Poor diet and obesity are the primary factors causing cancer. Mainly death occurs due to excessive weight gain.

Physical activity is a must to control the risk of cancer; there are effects not only on body weight but also worsen the immune and endocrine systems. Some of the results of the diet are due to overeating, eating junk and unhealthy food rather than green vegetables and healthy food.

Infection

In our world, 18 percent of deaths are due to the spread of infections.

Viruses are the primary causative agent of cancer.

Bacteria and parasites are also the agents that help spread cancer.

Viruses - Oncovirus,

• EB virus
• Herpesvirus

Mutation

In certain conditions, the DNA sequence may undergo a change that can be fatal; this is known as Mutation. This usually arises due to environmental reasons also.

It is of the following types:

• Somatic mutation
• Germline mutation

Somatic Mutations

That alteration in today's cell body, which passes to the next generation, is somatic mutation.

It differs from germline mutations because it changes the DNA sequence of germ cells. It can occur in any cell.

Biopsy

It is a process in which a portion of tissue or cell is removed and sent for examination Biopsy is Biopsyended in many cases. It is a very reliable test.

DNA deoxyribonucleic acid is present in chromosomes, which is present in every human. It is an inherited defect.

Immunofluorescence Test

This test is used in labs to detect various diseases of the skin, heart,  kidney, and other organs.

In this test, a unique bar pairing occurs between antigen and antibody to identify the proteins in the blood sample.

It is a microscopic method used to detect diseases.

Types of immunofluorescence:

• Direct immunofluorescence
• Indirect immunofluorescence
