UC San Diego researchers have identified the molecular and cellular mechanisms that transform healthy stem cells into oral cancer at the earliest stages of the disease ...

This includes the amount of epithelial cells your urine contains. While it's normal to have small amounts of epithelial cells in your urine, large amounts may signify something is wrong ...

To enhance the potential of LCM and to overcome some of the limitations of other methods, we have developed a rapid, simple procedure for enrichment of normal and tumor cells called epithelial ...

TGF-β is a multi-functional cytokine responsible for regulating growth and differentiation of a wide variety of cell types and tissues. It is a potent inhibitor of normal epithelial cell proliferation ...

This is achieved by cell extrusion programs ... paths for understanding tissue properties in both normal and pathological conditions. Epithelial tissues are in constant interaction with their ...

I don't necessarily think about normal stem cells dying when colon cancer is starting,” Sethi commented. To understand the sequence of these early events, the researchers did a timed deletion of one ...

Hypoxia-driven gene and protein changes enhance epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, remodel the extracellular matrix, drive drug resistance, support cancer stem cells and aid evasion from immune ...

Nearly 60,000 people are diagnosed with oral cancer in the U.S. every year, according to the American Cancer Society, and the ...

Epithelial tissues are ... tissue properties in both normal and pathological conditions. Epithelia are dynamic and must constantly deal with cell renewal. Therefore, the removal of cells from ...
