Tumörvävnadens
Tumörvävnadens refers to the tissue that forms a tumor. Tumors are abnormal growths of cells that arise from the body's own tissues. This abnormal growth occurs when cells divide uncontrollably and do not die when they should. Tumörvävnadens can be benign, meaning it is not cancerous and does not spread to other parts of the body, or malignant, meaning it is cancerous and can invade surrounding tissues and metastasize to distant sites. The composition of tumörvävnadens varies greatly depending on the type of cancer. It typically consists of a population of cancer cells, along with stromal components such as blood vessels, connective tissue, and immune cells. The microenvironment within the tumörvävnadens plays a crucial role in tumor growth, progression, and response to therapy. Understanding the characteristics of tumörvävnadens is essential for accurate diagnosis, staging, and the development of effective treatment strategies for cancer. Histopathological examination of tumörvävnadens allows pathologists to identify the type of cancer, its grade (how aggressive it appears), and other features that inform prognosis and treatment decisions. Research into tumörvävnadens continues to advance our knowledge of cancer biology and the search for new therapeutic targets.
