If the cell then botches the repair, stitching the fragments back together in a 'higgledy piggledy' fashion, the damage to its genome, or cache of DNA, leaves it ripe for the rapid development of cancer.6 V- C; y/ h+ y- G$ I7 L
Campbell said: "They attempt to reconstruct the unreconstructable and they wind up with a disastrous genome that shortens the road to cancer."

/ x9 A0 {4 J6 E7 \Claiming to have cracked the suspense shrouding the occurrence of tumours that appear from nowhere, British scientists say the so-called 'instant cancers' may be due to an abrupt ‘cell explosion’ called DNA damage. This sudden cell explosion could be a cause of cancer in one in 40 cases.$ X, W6 v" S- g! t$ E- `, E
Done by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute near Cambridge, the discovery took into account the study of the genetic flaws in as many as 750 tumours.! T: W0 a1 o( u8 R4 }: j; v! L
Also, this discovery contradicts the prevailing theory that the lethal disease cancer resulted out of hundreds, or even thousands, of cell alternations that take place in a human body.( q' k/ c: h' |/ u7 T* o( G
According to the scientists, one in 40 cancer cases could be a result of unexpected cell explosion, which subsequently rapidly damages the DNA. And in a few cases, the scientists say, the damage caused to the DNA by a single apocalyptic ‘explosion’ in a cell was equivalent to about as much as 10 years of hard living.

And in some cases, DNA repair machinery tries to attach the chromosomes back together but gets it disastrously wrong, says Dr. Campbell, adding out of the hundreds of mutations that result, several promote the development of cancer. 0 B  d8 \9 h, a) S# N2 d, b' o: U
