Metastasis

Metastasis

Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells from the original site to distant locations in the body. Cancer cells can spread via blood vessels (hematogenous) as well as lymph vessels in the body.
Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...

Classification of Epithelial Tissues: Simple Epithelium

Classification of Epithelial Tissues: Simple Epithelium

Simple epithelium consists of a single layer of cells that lines body cavities and blood vessels. The shape of the cells in the epithelium reflects the function of the tissue. Cells in simple squamous epithelium appear as thin scales with flat, elliptical nuclei that mirror the form of the cell.
Because of the thinness of the cells, simple squamous epithelium is present where the rapid passage of chemical compounds is observed. For example, the endothelium that lines the capillaries and vessels...

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

Central mucoepidermoid carcinomas (MECs) are rare jaw tumors. This case report details a unique clear cell variant of central MEC with calcifications in a male patient.

Area of Science:

Oral Pathology
Oncology
Head and Neck Surgery

Background:

Central mucoepidermoid carcinomas (MECs) represent a rare subset, accounting for 2-3% of all MECs.
These tumors originate centrally within the jawbone, distinct from peripheral or intraosseous origins.
