Q

Neoplasia
vs.
neoplasm

A

Neoplasia (nee-oh-PLAY-zhuh) is the
uncontrolled, abnormal growth of
cells or tissues in the body, and the
abnormal growth itself is called a
neoplasm (nee-oh-PLAZ-m) or tumor.
It can be benign (bee-NINE) or
malignant.

Q

COMPONENTS OF A NEOPLASM

Parenchyma
how do they replicate?
are tehy epithelial
are they mesenchymal?

A

Parenchyma - neoplastic cells
- these cells are able to replicate without control or regulation
Can be epithelial - most organs, glands, mucosal and the
epidermis
Can be mesenchymal - connective tissue, endothelial
cells, muscle, bone marrow and blood

Q

COMPONENTS OF A NEOPLASM

Stroma
how are they produced?
are they neoplastic?

A

Stroma Ǖ connective tissue and vasculature
Produced by neoplastic cell signaling
NOT neoplastic but works for the neoplastic cells
