Other articles where small-cell lung cancer is discussed: lung cancer: Small-cell lung cancer: Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), also called oat-cell carcinoma, is rarely found in people who have never smoked. It is characterized by cells that are small
Small-cell lung carcinoma is an aggressive form of lung cancer that is strongly associated with cigarette smoking and has a tendency for early dissemination. Increasing evidence has implicated autocrine growth loops, proto-oncogenes, and tumour-suppressor genes in its development. At presentation, the...
This is the first detailed description of the pathology of SCLC and the recognition that it is a distinct form of lung cancer. CAS PubMed Google Scholar Wong, Y. N., Jack, R. H., Mak, V., Henrik, M. & Davies, E. A. The epidemiology and survival of extrapulmonary small cell ...
Although small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is treated as a homogeneous disease, biopsies and preclinical models reveal heterogeneity in transcriptomes and morphology. SCLC subtypes were recently defined by neuroendocrine transcription factor (NETF) expressio

“salt-and-pepper” chromatin pattern. The cells in small call carcinoma also tend to stick close together, so that their nuclear contours appear “molded” to those of the adjacent tumor cells. Sometimes the cells in small cell carcinoma are more elongated, with tapered ends; cells with this...

cell lymphoma, neuroblastoma, and non-small cell lung cancer are a few examples of cancers in which the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene may be altered. When activated in cancer, the cancer cells may develop and proliferate due to these ALK gene alterations. Gene fusions, chromosomal ...
Therefore, the diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer is based on a process that requires up to three individual steps. The first step, which forms the basis of the diagnosis, is conventional light microscopy. Especially in the event of an unclear histological classification but also to ...
Lung cancer is the most prevalent cancer worldwide, and histopathological assessment is indispensable for its diagnosis. However, human evaluation of pathology slides cannot accurately predict patients’ prognoses. In this study, we obtain 2,186 haematox
