The evolution of multicellularity required the suppression of cancer. If every cell has some chance of becoming cancerous, large, long-lived organisms should have an increased risk of developing cancer compared to small, short-lived organisms. The lack of correlation between body size and cancer risk is known as Peto's paradox. Animals with 1, 000 times more cells than humans do not exhibit an increased cancer risk, suggesting that natural mechanisms can suppress cancer 1, 000 times more effectively than is done in human cells.  1, record 2, English, - Peto%26rsquo%3Bs%20paradox

Animal cells in which DNA virus replication aborts. In a small percentage of cases, the DNA virus instead transforms cells into their cancerous equivalents. In such neoplastic transformation, one or more of the viral genes becomes integrated into the genome of the host cell.  2, record 4, English, - nonpermissive%20cell

Cellule dans laquelle la croissance virale n'a pas lieu. Une lignée cellulaire permissive provient, en général, d'un animal chez lequel un virus donné se reproduit normalement. En revanche, les lignées non permissives proviennent en général d'animaux incapables d'assurer la multiplication d'un virus donné. Ainsi, selon le virus étudié, une cellule peut être permissive ou non.  1, record 4, French, - cellule%20non%20permissive
