It acts like a cellular \u201cbrake,\u201d supporting normal DNA repair, cell-cycle checkpoints, and cell death when damage is severe. When a Tumor suppressor gene is altered (mutated) or inactivated, cancer risk can increase because growth control is weakened. The term is commonly used in cancer genetics, tumor molecular testing, pathology reports, and oncology treatment planning discussions."}
