What is Discohesive clusters of polygonal cells?

Discohesive clusters of polygonal cells refer to groups of cells that are loosely associated and lack strong adhesion to one another, often forming polygonal shapes. This phenomenon can occur in various biological contexts, including in certain types of tumors or during the process of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. The discohesiveness can affect cellular behavior, including migration and invasion, and is an important characteristic in the study of cancer Biology and tissue development.
