Abstract
The human body interacts at a cellular level through a series of events known as biological pathways. These pathways consist of communications at the molecular, cellular, and genetic levels to maintain a healthy, functional body. When the pathways are disrupted, new pathways are formed that can lead to disease. Currently, researchers are trying to understand the role of disrupted and normal pathways in cancer cells. It is necessary to understand the cancerous pathway in order to return the cell to its normal, healthy function.
