Cell biology forms the basis of pathology by explaining how cellular dysfunction leads to diseases, from inflammation to cancer. Understanding cellular mechanisms is key to diagnosing and treating illnesses. This book explores the relationship between cell biology and disease, highlighting processes like cell injury, repair, and adaptation. It deals with the pathology of specific conditions such as apoptosis defects in cancer and autophagy in neurodegenerative diseases. Case studies connect theoretical knowledge with clinical applications, making it an invaluable resource for medical students, pathologists, and researchers.
