Odd, it was explained to me once that this was how a carcinogen behaved.
The term carcinogen refers to any substance, radionuclide or radiation that is an agent directly involved in the promotion of cancer or in the increase of its propagation
Yeah, I know wikipedia isn't a great source, but it works here. So, according to this nicotine is a 'whole nother non-carcinogen carcinogen'
Need more input!
That would be a catylist. (Contributing device, indirectly responsible for reaction to occur. Wild-growth being the reaction.)
There seems to be a lot of... "We think", "Suggests", and "Might be"... in that "Medical study"... Even going so far as to create a name indicative of the "supposed", activation agent, without even knowing if it is happening.
Now we have nicoceptors... So that translates into nicotine being a dietary supplement now.
Cancer is a DNA-broken cell, that is only broken-enough to be deformed and reproductive, just not completely dead. Thus, the ability to stay alive. Genetics cause cancer, and diets keep them alive once they are ready to break-down. Substances in diets accelerate the inevitable, while radio-activity causes healthy DNA to become broken DNA.

All the asbestos dust from our car breaks, the pollution/smog in the air, the junk-foods we eat, the radiation we live around, the lack of exercise, the numerous pharmaceutical drugs we consume, the chlorine we inhale every day while showering, the sugars we wash ourselves with, the x-rays, the photo-beam shooting directly at our brains (TV), the radioactive mini-ovens and cell-phones and high speed modems, the bleaches we wash our clothes in, the power-lines wrapped around our houses...
But cigarettes are the source of all our cancers.
Sorry, once again, I am calling DR. BS...
I like the assumption... "It must be the nicotine that is causing our radiation to fail." Yes, because radiation which causes cancer, is not curing it... blame the cigarettes.
Tomorrow they will tell us of a PG and VG receptor that causes erectile dysfunction. A special cell designed just for PG and VG, which is in almost every food item from here to China. Now that we use it in electronic cigs.
