Cancer is a class of diseases characterized by out of control cell growth. Cancerous tumors can grow and interfere with the digestive, nervous, and circulatory systems as well as release hormones that alter body functions. Numerous genes and proteins have been identified as being involved in cancer and the scope of cancer research is enormous. So far, over 350 types of cancer tumors have been identified. 130,000 mutations in 3,000 genes have been observed in these tumors. Biogems is proud to offer an ever expanding portfolio of cancer research products to keep pace with this developing field.
