Preview- One can view, individuals previously treated with , or other immunosuppressive (i.e., immunosuppressant) agents ,, or radiation (i.e., radiatio) therapy (i.e., therapeusis, or therapia) are at an increased risk of developing cutis (i.e., skin) cancer when taking cyclosporine. Therapy, treatment. Radiation therapy is the use of high-energy radiation from x-rays, gamma rays, neutrons, protons, and other sources to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Radiation may come from a machine outside the body (external (i.e., externus)-beam radiation therapy), or it may come from radioactive (i.e., radio-) material placed in the body near cancer cells (internal radiation therapy). Systemic radiation therapy uses a radioactive substance, such as a radiolabeled monoclonal antibody, that travels in the blood to tissues throughout the body. Also called irradiation and radiotherapy (i.e., radiation oncology). Immunosuppressive, describes the ability to decrease the body`s immune system responses. Cyclosporine is a drug used to help reduce the risk of rejection of organ and bone marrow transplants by the body. It is also used in clinical trials to make cancer cells more sensitive (i.e., sensible) to anticancer drugs. Cell is the individual unit that makes up the tissues of the body. All living things are made up of one or more cells. ALL is an aggressive (fast-growing) type of leukemia (blood cancer) in which too many lymphoblasts (immature white (i.e., albicans) blood cells) are found in the blood and bone marrow. Also called acute lymphoblastic leukemia and acute lymphocytic leukemia (i.e., lymphatic leukemia, or lymphoid leukemia). Radiation, energy released in the form of particle or electromagnetic waves. Common sources of radiation include radon gas, cosmic rays from outer space (i.e., spatium), medical x-rays, and energy given off by a radioisotope (unstable form of a chemical element that releases radiation as it breaks down and becomes more stable).
- It really is clear that, cancer, or a history of malignant neoplastic disease (other than basal (i.e., basalis) or squamous (i.e., scaly) cell skin cancers). Skin cancer, cancer that forms in the tissues of the skin. There are several types of skin cancer. Skin cancer that forms in melanocytes (skin cells that make pigment) is called melanoma (i.e., malignant melanoma). Melanoma is a form of cancer that begins in melanocytes (cells that make the pigment melanin (i.e., melanotic pigment)). It may begin in a mole (i.e., nevus, or nevus pigmentosus) (skin melanoma), but can also begin in other pigmented tissues, such as in the eye (i.e., oculus) or in the intestines. Skin cancer that forms in the lower (i.e., inferior, or lower tubercle) part of the epidermis (i.e., cuticle, or cuticula) (the outer layer (i.e., panniculus) of the skin) is called basal cell (i.e., basilar cell) carcinoma. Epidermis is the outer layer of the two main layers of the skin. Skin cancer that forms in squamous cells (flat cells that form the surface (i.e., face, or facies) of the skin) is called squamous cell carcinoma. Squamous cell carcinoma, cancer that begins in squamous cells, which are thin, flat cells that look like fish scales. Squamous cells are found in the tissue that forms the surface of the skin, the lining of the hollow organs of the body, and the passages of the respiratory and digestive (i.e., digestant) tracts. Also called epidermoid carcinoma (i.e., epidermoid cancer). Skin cancer that forms in neuroendocrine cells (cells that release hormones in response to signals from the nervous system) is called neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin. Most skin cancers form in older people on parts of the body exposed to the sun or in people who have weakened immune systems. Squamous cell, flat cell that looks like a fish scale under a microscope. These cells cover inside and outside surfaces of the body. They are found in the tissues that form the surface of the skin, the lining of the hollow organs of the body (such as the bladder, kidney (i.e., ren, or nephros), and uterus (i.e., metra, or womb)), and the passages of the respiratory and digestive tracts.
- It seems that, squamous cell carcinoma affects cells in the midsection level of the epidermis.
