Cancer types can also be grouped into broader categories. The main categories of cancer include: Carcinoma – cancer that begins in the skin or in tissue that lines or covers internal organs Sarcoma – cancer that arises from bone, cartilage, fat, muscle, blood vessels, or other connective or...
Asarcomais a rare kind ofcancer. Sarcomas are different from the much more commoncarcinomasbecause they happen in a different kind of tissue. Sarcomas grow in connective tissue -- cells that connect or support other kinds of tissue in your body. These tumors are most common in the bones, m...
For example,sarcomasdevelop in bones or soft tissues, whilecarcinomasform in cells that cover internal or external surfaces in the body.Basal cell carcinomasdevelop in the skin, whileadenocarcinomascan form in the glands. When cancerous cells spread to other parts of the body, the medical term...

Putative prostate progenitor cell populations were characterized and isolated by expression of the membrane transporter ABCG2. Stem cells were represented by embryonic stem and embryonal carcinoma cells. The cancer cell types were Gleason pattern 3 (glandular histomorphology) and pattern 4 (aglandular)...
The human nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily comprises 48 ligand-dependent transcription factors that play regulatory roles in physiology and pathophysiology. In cancer, NRs have long served as predictors of disease stratification, treatment response, and

Cancer is a disease of complex genetic alterations, and comprehensive genetic diagnosis is beneficial to match each patient to appropriate therapy. However, acquisition of representative tumor samples is invasive and sometimes impossible. Circulating tum
Four clinically distinct types of neuroendocrine tumors have been described: small cell lung cancer (SCLC), large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC), typical carcinoid (TC) tumors and atypical carcinoid (AC) tumors. SCLC is the most serious type of neuroendocrine lung tumor, and is among the ...
