Deal with the Devil?  Is there a tradeoff between aging and cancer?

Aging Gene Also Protects Against Prostate Cancer Development (Science Daily)  Cancer researchers have found that a gene that is involved in regulating aging also blocks prostate cancer cell growth. They have shown that the enzyme SIRT1 can block the growth of treatment-resistant prostate cancer cells that overexpress a mutation for the androgen receptor. The scientists hope the newly found connection will aid in better understanding the development of prostate cancer and
