Preview- One can conclude that, approximately 90per centum of oral cancers are squamous (i.e., scaly) cell carcinoma (SCC), which is seen in older men, typically on the lip (i.e., labium) or lateral (i.e., lateralis) pass part of the tongue (i.e., glossa, or lingua). Carcinoma, cancer that begins in the skin (i.e., cutis) or in tissues that line or cover internal (i.e., internus) organs. 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 (i.e., face, or facies) 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). Cell is the individual unit that makes up the tissues of the body. All living things are made up of one or more cells. 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.
- As an example, blood (i.e., haema) tests can detect a chemical called carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) as well as CA 19-9 - a chemical released into the blood by pancreatic cancer cells. Antigen, any substance that causes the body to make a specific immune response. Pancreatic, having to do with the pancreas. Blood is a tissue with red blood cells, white (i.e., albicans) blood cells, platelets, and other substances suspended in fluid called plasma (i.e., blood plasma). Blood takes oxygen and nutrients to the tissues, and carries away wastes. CA 19-9 is a substance released into the bloodstream by both cancer cells and pattern cells. Too much CA 19-9 in the blood can be a sign of pancreatic cancer or other types of cancer or conditions. The amount of CA 19-9 in the blood can be used to help keep track of how well cancer treatments are working or if cancer has come back. It is a type of tumor (i.e., neoplasm) marker. Chemical is a substance made up of elements, such as hydrogen or sodium. CEA is a substance that may be found in the blood of people who have colon cancer, other types of cancer or diseases, or who smoke tobacco. CEA levels may help keep track of how well cancer treatments are working or if cancer has come back. It is a type of tumor marker. Also called carcinoembryonic antigen. Carcinoembryonic antigen is a substance that may be found in the blood of people who have colon cancer, other types of cancer or diseases, or who smoke tobacco. Carcinoembryonic antigen levels may help keep track of how well cancer treatments are working or if cancer has come rear. It is a type of tumor marker. Also called CEA. Pancreatic cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells are found in the tissues of the pancreas. Malignant, cancerous. Malignant cells can invade and destroy nearby tissue and spread to other parts of the body. Also called exocrine (i.e., eccrine) cancer.
- It`s possible to presume that, newer drugs that mark specific parts of malignant neoplastic disease cells are now being studied.
