Interferons are used in treatment of cancer and rest all options given cause cancer → Oncogenic viruses are cancer causing viruses and are broadly divided into two large groups depending on the type of nucleic acid found within the mature virus particle: DNA tumour virus and RNA tumour virus. → Proto oncogenes are genes that when activated can push the cell toward the malignant state. → Both ionizing X-rays and non-ionizing ultraviolet (UV) radiation are leading cause of skin cancer, cause DNA damage Hence interferons are odd one out.
