Abstract

Aghajanova AH and Safarzadeh A

Cancer of the large intestine is approximately 15% of all malignant cancer of the word. In the study of sections of normal epithelial mucosa of the colon revealed that the contours of the cell membrane is precise, well-defined microvilli in size from 5 × 10 to 10 × 10 nm. The adenocarcinoma cell of the large intestine has the morphological changes of the cell membrane. In the cell membrane in contrast to normal epithelial cells of the mucous membrane of the colon appear pores and the degree of change in this indicator may be different.
