    Abstract:

    Thirty-two basal cell carcinomas have been examined by electron microscopy. The majority exhibit cellular polymorphism and the most frequently encountered non-epithelial unit is the Langerhans cell. The nature of basal cell carcinoma and the function of the Langerhans cell are discussed in relation to this observation.

    Basal Lamina are the Specialized Form of ECM

    The basal lamina is a thin extracellular layer that lies underneath the cells and separates them from other tissues. The three layers of the basal lamina are lamina lucida, lamina densa and lamina reticularis. The basal lamina, a mixture of glycoproteins and collagen, provides an attachment site for the epithelium, separating it from underlying connective tissue. The framework of basal lamina has other essential proteins such as laminins mesh, perlecan, entactin, and type IV collagen.

    Skin Cancer

    Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
    Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...
