The development of cancer has multiple causes in which there are some diseases that can promote the manifestation of cancer cells in certain tissues.
There are some causes for which a cancer develops, the main reason must occur in a genetic abnormality that occurs at the time of transcription of the genome, also predominate malignancies or syndromes that affect certain chromosomes and this irregularity in some cases are inherited from generation to generation.
Recently a study group from the University of Manchester and Hamburg received evidence from a study arguing that psoriasis, a condition that develops on the skin with manifestation is linked to a deficiency in the internal system, can not be a cause of cancer. , but a risk factor, as a person with a deficient immune system can easily present with any type of chronic disease in which cancer stands out.
In-depth study
The research team has made two very simple and profound clarifications when talking about psoriasis and related to cancer, where as a first step it is not established that this skin condition originates or triggers a tumor or cell. · Carcinogenic cells in a certain area. In point two, it will be clarified that it is also not a cause of cancer in the epidermis, in some cases it is believed that this condition may develop some malignancy of this type in the skin.
Argue that mainly the reason why it establishes proximity between psoriasis and cancer is a risk factor that may predominate in those patients who have malignancy in their skin, as mentioned above this pathology is born or originates from an irregularity in the immune system, so the creation of lymphocytes is limited and given the origin of a chronic disease such as cancer the body does not have enough antibodies to combat this condition.
The development of conditions is important to take into account, there are some connections with certain diseases that are considered chronic, such as cancer, psoriasis being a disease of origin is related to the system that fights conditions may not be -it only triggers malignancy but others, which is why it is extremely important to carry out medical checks and prevent relapses or complications.
