Promotion Stage of Cancer Development

In the promotion stage of cancer development, mutated cells that have undergone genetic changes during initiation are encouraged to:

Grow and divide: Stimulated by various factors such as hormones, growth factors, or inflammatory signals.
Evade normal growth controls: Mutated cells may resist signals that would normally regulate cell growth and division.

These changes promote the survival and proliferation of mutated cells, laying the foundation for the progression into cancerous growth.
