Chemical and physical carcinogenesis: advances and perspectives for the 1990s.

Carcinogenesis is a multistage process driven by carcinogen-induced genetic and epigenetic damage in susceptible cells that gain a selective growth advantage and undergo clonal expansion as the result of activation … Carcinogenesis is a multistage process driven by carcinogen-induced genetic and epigenetic damage in susceptible cells that gain a selective growth advantage and undergo clonal expansion as the result of activation of protooncogenes and/or inactivation of tumor suppressor genes. Therefore, the mutational spectra of chemical and physical carcinogens in these critical genes are of interest to define endogenous and exogenous mutational mechanisms. The p53 tumor suppressor gene is ideally suited for analysis of the mutational spectrum. Such an analysis has revealed evidence for both exogenous and endogenous molecular mechanisms of carcinogenesis. For example, an informative p53 mutational spectrum of frequent G----T transversions in codon 249 is found in hepatocellular carcinomas from either Qidong, People's Republic of China, or southern Africa. This observation links exposure to aflatoxin B1, a known cancer risk factor in these geographic regions, with a specific mutation in a cancer-related gene. Other studies indicate that abnormalities in genes controlling the cell cycle may cause genomic instability and increase the probability of neoplastic transformation. Finally, mechanistic understanding of carcinogenesis is leading to improved cancer risk assessment and to the identification of individuals at high cancer risk.

L. Brent, and there is a valuable article on the incidence of variation and malformations in ani- mals by A. K. Palmer.Although the dangers of specu- lation on the teratogenic effects of drugs are emphasized by one writer, who reminds us of their value and neces- sity in clinical medicine, many other authors are more self-indulgent.An article by I. D. G. Richards puts the risks in better perspective.The volume will be of limited use to workers in the field of teratology who will already be familiar with most of the information to be found within it.

It should be read by all medical students and young men planning a research career in medicine. Claude Bernard's role in physiology and experimental medicine can never be forgotten. To have an opportunity to profit from the wisdom of such a great man is certainly a privilege. Unfortunately, other great scientists did not make it possible for those who followed them to profit from such advice.

P4 Medicine: How Systems Medicine Will Transform the Healthcare Sector and Society

Today, the core … Ten years ago, the proposition that healthcare is evolving from reactive disease care to care that is predictive, preventive, personalized and participatory was regarded as highly speculative. Today, the core elements of that vision are widely accepted and have been articulated in a series of recent reports by the US Institute of Medicine. Systems approaches to biology and medicine are now beginning to provide patients, consumers and physicians with personalized information about each individual's unique health experience of both health and disease at the molecular, cellular and organ levels. This information will make disease care radically more cost effective by personalizing care to each person's unique biology and by treating the causes rather than the symptoms of disease. It will also provide the basis for concrete action by consumers to improve their health as they observe the impact of lifestyle decisions. Working together in digitally powered familial and affinity networks, consumers will be able to reduce the incidence of the complex chronic diseases that currently account for 75% of disease-care costs in the USA.

ON THE PERMANENT LIFE OF TISSUES OUTSIDE OF THE ORGANISM

Alexis Carrel

In two series of experiments made at the end of 1911 and at the beginning of 1912, new techniques were developed with the view of investigating the problem of prolonging … In two series of experiments made at the end of 1911 and at the beginning of 1912, new techniques were developed with the view of investigating the problem of prolonging indefinitely the life of tissues isolated from the organism. These techniques are far from perfect and will doubtless be modified in the future. But they have already permitted the establishment of new facts. Fragments of connective tissue have been kept in vitro in a condition of active life for more than two months. As a few cultures are now eighty-five days old and are growing very actively, it is probable that, if no accident occurs, the life of these cultures will continue for a long time. In some cases the rate of growth of the tissues increased in direct ratio to the age of the culture. Fragments of heart pulsated rhythmically at the beginning of the third month of their life in vitro. These facts show that experiments made with these or with more perfect techniques and followed over long periods of time may lead to the solution of the problem of permanent life of tissues in vitro, and give important information on the characters acquired by tissues liberated from the control of the organism from which they were derived.
