“…An increase in the division number of small cells (e.g. stem cells) may simply translate into higher cancer incidence due to errors in DNA copying with each single cell multiplication [ 10 , 16 , 27 , 46 , 47 ]. Second, the size of cells is one of the determinants of the cellular metabolic rate and costs of maintenance of the membrane gradients [ 42 ].…”

“…Such systems should emulate mechanisms of natural selection and thus markedly depart from the research paradigm of simplified animal models having knocked-out or overexpressed genes widely adopted in oncology and bearing unclear relations to the evolutionary context of carcinogenesis. Although single gene manipulation has greatly contributed to considerable progress in the field of genetics and cell biology, a deeper understanding of tumor initiation and its progression requires an evolutionary approach [ 36 , 47 , 56 ]. Genetically manipulated models disregard combinations of allelic variants and interactions between multiple loci, which significantly affect anticancer mechanisms molded by natural selection [ 36 ].…”

“…Genetic diseases and evolution can be driven by large scale structural changes to chromosomes, including chromosomal translocations [1][2][3]. Translin is a conserved nucleic acid binding protein first identified in humans by its ability to bind to malignant disease-associated chromosomal translocation breakpoint junctions, which resulted in the postulate that it mediates genetic recombination [4].…”
