The cells of the parents become cancerous. When the DNA in the reproductive cells of the father and mother becomes cancerous, all the cells in their children's bodies acquire this changed genetic information and may become cancerous. This is a "hereditary" cancer. However, the DNA of somatic cells changes in the acquired environment and becomes cancerous cells. Then the daughter cells generated by the division of this cell are still cancerous cells. It will not affect the cancer of the DNA in the reproductive cells, so this cancer cell will not be inherited by the children. This is a "non-hereditary" cancer.
In recent years, with the advent of biological therapy, there have been new breakthroughs in the treatment of malignant tumors. Multicellular immunotherapy refers to a treatment method that uses various biological agents and biotechnological means to regulate and enhance the body's immunity and anti-cancer ability to inhibit and kill cancer cells. The effect of biological treatment after tumor surgery can effectively inhibit residual cancer and promote the recovery of patients' body functions. Even for patients who have undergone relatively complete surgical resection in the early stage, certain postoperative treatment measures should be taken to inhibit the recurrence and metastasis of invisible cancer cells and accelerate the recovery of patients' physical fitness.
