CANCER CELL
Tümör hücrelerinin yayılım yolları ve yerleşimi
Metastasis
• Cancer can spread to nearby tissues or to other organs through metastasis.
• Metastasis is the formation of a secondary tumor focus separate from the main tumor.
Metastasis
• Invasion is not metastasis.
• Malignant neoplasms metastasize through lymphatics, blood vessels and body cavities.
• The tumor that metastasizes is considered strictly malignant.
• Metastasis through body cavities
• Metastasis through lymphatics
• Hematogenous spread
• Propagation to the veins by invasion
Tümör Hücrelerinin Yayılım Aşamaları
• Tumor cells separation E cadherin
β catenin
• Tumor cells attach to matrix components
excellular matrix proteins such as
laminin and fibronectin
• Extracellular matrix rupture
• Migration in connective tissue
• Holding onto the vascular basement membrane and exiting the vessel
• Bonding and migration to connective tissue
