k Skin cancer cell. Coloured scanning electron micrograph SEM of a melanoma cancer cell. This cancer arises from the skins melanocytes, the cells that produce the pigment melanin that give skin its colour. Melanoma is an aggressive cancer that often spreads metastasises to other tissues of the body. The long cell process seen here help the cell to move. Once the cancer has spread the prognosis is poor. The main cause of melanoma is exposure to ultraviolet radiation in sunlight. Editorial Stock Photo - Afloimages
