Analize the following statements about cancer:
I- Caquexia is a multifactorial condition that is largely driven by TNF and other cytokines produced by inflammatory cells in response to tumors.

a) Only statement I is true.
b) Only statement II is true.
c) Only statement III is true.
d) Statements I, II, and III are true.

A alternativa correta é a letra "d) Statements I, II, and III are true." Todas as três afirmações são verdadeiras. A caquexia é uma condição multifatorial que é amplamente impulsionada pelo TNF e outras citocinas produzidas por células inflamatórias em resposta a tumores. Grandes alterações cromossômicas e mudanças epigenéticas, como a metilação do DNA, podem induzir malignidade. A amplificação gênica e a cromotripsia, que significa "cromossomo fragmentado", também podem ocorrer em células cancerosas.
