Can Histological Techniques Help Identify Biological Factors?
Yes, histological techniques are invaluable in identifying the effects of biological factors on tissues. Techniques such as immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy, and special staining methods can reveal specific cellular changes and help correlate them with underlying biological factors. For example, immunohistochemistry can be used to detect specific proteins that are overexpressed in cancerous tissues, providing insights into the molecular mechanisms driving the disease.
