Cancer is a broad term. It describes the disease that occurs when cell changes cause uncontrolled cell growth and division. Some types of cancer cause rapid cell growth, while others cause cell growth and division at a slower rate. Some forms of cancer cause visible growth called tumors, while others, such as leukemia, do not. Most cells in the body have specific functions and a fixed lifespan. While this may sound like a bad thing, cell death is part of a natural and beneficial phenomenon called apoptosis. A cell is instructed to die so that the body can replace it with a newer, better-functioning cell. Cancer cells lack the components that tell them to stop dividing and die. As a result, they accumulate in the body, using oxygen and nutrients that would generally feed other cells. Cancer cells can form tumors, alter the immune system, and cause other changes that keep the body from working properly.
