Three universal types of cancers are identified, based on the malfunction of a certain set of proteins and regulatory RNAs, irrespective of the organs in which they are located: Cancer Type 1, where cancer cells lack either a functional (a) P14ARF gene, or (b) a P53 gene; Cancer Type 2, where cancer cells lack a functional DINO lncRNA; and Cancer Type 3, where cancer cells have an abnormally high amount of copies of the MDM2 gene. New therapeutic targets were discovered for each type of cancer that paves the way or treating cancer irrespective of the organ it lies in. Until now, current cancer treatments have been organ-specific, and no common pan-organ denominator has been thought of. Furthermore, cancer biochemistry has been studied in isolation, one pathway at a time, without considering the complex interactions between proteins and regulatory RNAs, which are characteristic of a living human organism. This work has identified three universal types of cancers based on the malfunction of a certain set of proteins and regulatory RNAs, irrespective of the organs in which they are located in and has developed a new unified therapeutic theory that identifies novel master regulators of apoptosis as targets for treating cancer regardless of which organ the cancer lies in, through a novel biochemical flowsheet of a universal apoptosis network comprising approximately 100 pathways (80% activation and 20% inhibition), based on a critical analysis of 170 scientific publications that considered all the complex interactions between proteins and regulatory RNAs.
