Recent progress in our understanding of the mechanism of transformation has contributed to the development of novel molecular approaches for the detection and classification of cancer. The review focuses on the molecular background of cancer, the role of oncogenic kinases, genetic instability and embryonal signalling pathways. Moreover, examples of novel diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities are described.
