67: Just What Is...Cancer? - a podcast by Dr. Jack & Mary Stockwell CGP, Upper Cervical N.U.C.C.A. Board Certified Ch

As the prevailing theory of cancer continues to be discarded
more and more by researchers, Dr. Jack and Mary discuss the
historical turning points that put us on this path, and where we
might have gotten things wrong.

The "mature cell failing to die theory" (apoptosis) of cancer
has been with us for several decades now, and may be having it's
last moments as accepted theory. It implies that cells can
become immortal, which we don't actually see even when
evaluating the cancers cells themselves.

A better theory comes from stem cells. As undifferentiated cells
within the body, they carry a degree of "immortality" until they
differentiate into specific tissue cell types. They are also
analogous with what we understand about the very early development
of the mammalian embryo. Ironically, researcher Dr. James Beard in
the late 1800's had identified what he called vagrant trophoblasts,
or essentially wandering egg cells, and developed his own
interpretation about their role in cancer tissues without ever
calling them stem cells or identifying their particular role in the
body.

Was his discovery about the correlation between cancer and the
way stem cells behave under certain conditions part of the missing
puzzle all these years?
