Why epithelial cancer is more aggressive in some tissues - Medical Xpress

AI BRIEFING

• ⬤ Epithelial cancer is more aggressive in some tissues due to differences in cell biology and molecular pathways. Tumors in certain tissues, such as the brain and pancreas, tend to grow and spread faster than those in other tissues, like the skin or breast. This is often due to unique genetic and epigenetic factors that promote aggressive behavior in these cancers.
