Hallmarks of Cancer

Hanahan D, Weinberg RA. The hallmarks of cancer. Cell. 2000;100(1):57-70.

Weinberg and Hanahan, in 2000[1], proposed six essential capabilities found in tumour cells that encompass the “hallmarks of

cancer.”

1. self-sufficiency in growth signals

2. insensitivity to antigrowth signals

3. evasion of apoptosis

4. limitless replicative potential

5. sustained angiogenesis

6. tissue invasion and metastasis
