The Mechanism of Tumor Suspression

The decentralized science movement may be able to help that a little bit. Mechanism of tumor suppression is that in nascent tumor cells, the repression is lost and that causes apoptosis or senescence. Transposons are quite active, they're much more active than a normal tissue. And this is why people also thought they caused cancer, that's why they're active. But actually, the sequence of events is not like that. When transposons are very active, they trigger an innate immune response that then causes the cell to undergo death.
