Cancer is a class of diseases characterized by out-of-control and abnormal cell growth spreading to other locations in the body via lymph or blood resulting in the destruction of adjacent tissues. There are over 100 different types of cancer specific to the type of cells that are affected. ...
In normal cells, hundreds of genes intricately control the process of cell division. Normal growth requires a balance between the activity of those genes that promote cell proliferation and those that suppress it. It also relies on the activities of genes that signal when damaged cells should unde...
This breast anatomy sits under the skin and on top of the chest muscles.As in all forms of cancer, the abnormal tissue that makes up breast cancer is the patient's own cells that have multiplied uncontrollably. Those cells may also travel to locations in the body where they are not ...

To date, two populations of putative ISCs have been identified in the small intestine epithelium; the populations occupy distinct but neighboring locations in the crypt. Crypt base columnar (CBC) ISCs are slender, actively dividing cells that are interspersed among the Paneth cells at the most bott...
Equally, however, the rich etymological and linguistic 'life' of cancer contributed to the construction of that disease as a singular and unique malady. In the second part of the chapter, I look at the bodily locations of cancer – where it might occur on or in the patient – before ...
The vast majority of cancer deaths are attributed to metastasis, or the spread of tumors from one organ to another. Determining if a cancer will metastasize has been all but impossible, but if it does, it becomes more difficult to treat because of its multiple locations in the body and resi...
