Cancer is caused by certain changes to genes that control the way our cells function, especially how they grow and divide. Genes carry the instructions to form proteins, which do much of the work in our cells. Some sorts of cancer run in certain families, but most cancers aren’t clearly linked to the genes we inherit from our parents. Gene changes that start during a single cell over the course of an individual’s life cause most cancers.
