Several target components are commonly analyzed in histology:
Nuclei: The nucleus is often a focus due to its role in controlling cell activities and its changes in disease states. Extracellular Matrix (ECM): Components like collagen and elastin are studied to understand tissue structure and pathology. Cell Membrane Proteins: Proteins such as receptors and transporters are crucial for cellular communication and function. Enzymes: Enzymes like kinases and phosphatases are investigated for their roles in biochemical pathways.
