Great idea for this article, explained in this BBC news article. Kim Dent-Brown (Talk) 10:35, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
Would the useful information here be better merged into Cancer? Richard Keatinge ( talk) 13:28, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
...I'll just drop the idea. Richard Keatinge ( talk) 16:41, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
The Hanahan and Weinberg article discusses the hallmarks in the sequence (1) Self-sufficiency of growth signalling (2) insensitivity to anti-growth signals (3) Evasion of apoptosis (4) unlimited replication (5) angiogenesis and (6) tissue invasion and metastasis.
In this WP entry, the hallmarks are in a different sequence. I can't think of any reason why we should use a different sequence than the authors used. Since nobody's been active here in a while, I'm going to WP:BEBOLD and change the sequence to match the Cell article. The worst that can happen is that somebody will revert it.
Also, I'd like to expand it a little. This is an important paper, and we should use this entry to make it as easy for a biology student to access the paper as possible.
Also, I think we should list the hallmarks in the introduction, in an easy-to-read form. After all, the six hallmarks are what this is all about.-- Nbauman ( talk) 20:35, 19 August 2011 (UTC)
Do the traits appear in this or some other order, or do some appear together, or can they appear in different orders in different cancers/patients ? Are some steps required for other steps ?
The first paragraph presently talks about "The Hallmarks of Cancer" as simply the characteristics of cancer, and not in direct reference to the paper associated to that term.
The second paragraph then goes on to say "By November 2010, the paper..." without ever establishing which paper is being talked about.
I am far from knowledgeable on this so am hesitant to edit it, I think some rephrasing and linking in a DOI reference to the paper is necessary, and a decision as to if this page is primarily about the paper, or the theory put forth by the paper. 2A01:388:505:150:0:0:1:81 ( talk) 15:22, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
