@Trenty2468. Cancer tumors become self sustaining through angiogenesis (the growth of new blood vessels from pre-existing vessels). This is done through VEGEF- which actually stimulates capillaries to form into a tissue.

Excellent animation but without the audio narration it only gets half way to the goal of educating.

OMG o_o SO POOR THING

cant cancer separate another way.... ouch?

@Trenty2468 Why do capillary type blood vessels seem to grow over and around the cancer cell growth? because a growth factor is released by the cancer cells that produces the formation of new capillaries that feeds the cancer cells .

Chuck Norris never gets cancer. He simply snaps his fingers to keep them away

@1kmUnderwater The TP53 gene is expressed by a tumor suppressor protein called p53. It regulates cell division and makes sure cells won't divide to fast forming a tumor. When the TP53 gene is damaged, the protein p53 can't do its work anymore so tumor suppression is severely reduced and a tumor can form.

could you please tell me what the "inactive p53" and "tumor suppressor" meant?
