when does it occur?
what is activated to start it?

A
  • PROGRAMMED CELL DEATH AS LAST RESORT
  • BEFORE PROGENY VIRUS PRODUCTION IS COMPLETE
  • ACTIVATION OF CASPASE ENZYMES FOR DEGRADATION OF CELL’S OWN
    DNA AND PROTEINS
105
Q

APOPTOSIS

what is:
INTRINSIC PATHWAY
EXTRINSIC PATHWAY

A
  • INTRINSIC PATHWAY (MITOCHONDRIAL)
  • INCREASED PERMEABILITY OF MITOCHONDRIAL MEMBRANE
  • EXTRINSIC PATHWAY (DEATH RECEPTOR)
  • TNF RECEPTOR FAMILY AND CYTOKINE BINDING TRIGGERS APOPTOSIS.
106
Q

APOPTOSIS

what role CYTOTOXIC T AND NK CELLS

A

CYTOTOXIC T AND NK CELLS
* PERFORIN AND GRANZYMES ÀDIRECTLY ACTIVATES CASPASES

107
Q

TARGETS FOR APOPTOSIS

what are the 4 steps?

A
  • AB CELL MEDIATED CYTOTOXICITY
  • AB BINDS AG ON TARGET CELLS
  • FC RECEPTORS ON NK CELLS RECOGNIZE AB
  • CROSS LINK SIGNALS FOR DEGRANULATION EQUALS
    APOPTOSIS

115
Q

REGULATING THE CELL CYCLE

ENCODE PROTEINS THAT FUNCTION IN NORMAL CELLULAR
GROWTH AND DIFFERENTIATION. HELPS WITH CELL DIVISION

A

PROTO-ONCOGENES

116
Q

REGULATING THE CELL CYCLE

PLAYS A ROLE IN KEEPING CELL DIVISION IN CHECK.
ENCODES PROTEINS THAT REGULATES AND INHIBITS UNCONTROLLED GROWTH.
RB AND P53 ARE IMPORTANT TUMOR SUPPRESSOR GENES

A

TUMOR SUPPRESSOR GENES

117
Q

REGULATING THE CELL CYCLE

BLOCKS E2F AND KEEPS CELL DIVISION IN
CHECK. E2F FACILITATES CELL DIVISION

A

RB (RETINOBLASTOMA PROTEIN)

118
Q

REGULATING THE CELL CYCLE

PREVENTS CELLS WITH DAMAGING DNA FROM ENTERING INTO CELL
DIVISION. TRIES TO MEDIATE REPAIRING OF THE DAMAGED HOST CELL
DNA. IF THE DAMAGED DNA CANNOT BE REPAIRED, P53 MEDIATES
APOPTOSIS OF THE CELL WITH DAMAGED DNA.

A

P53

119
Q

Which of the following is a tumor suppressor gene/protein
a-CDK
b-E2F
c-Rb
d- all of the above

A

Q

ONCOGENIC VIRUSES

what are they?
what do they do?
what do they cause?

A
  • USUALLY DNA GENOME OR GENERATES A DNA
    PROVIRUS AFTER INFECTION (RETROVIRUS).
  • HAS VIRAL ONCOGENES IN THE VIRAL DNA
  • THESE CAUSE CANCER AND AIDS IN REPLICATION.
121
Q

ONCOGENIC DNA VIRUSES

DNA TUMOR VIRUSES INTERACT WITH CELLS IN ONE OF
TWO WAYS
what are they?
productive?
non-productive?

A

DNA TUMOR VIRUSES INTERACT WITH CELLS IN ONE OF
TWO WAYS
1. PRODUCTIVE INFECTION IN PERMISSIVE CELL: IN WHICH
THE VIRUS COMPLETES ITS (if you have permission to come in, you are safe-no cancer) REPLICATION CYCLE, RESULTING
IN CELL LYSIS. NO CANCER.
2. NON

-PRODUCTIVE INFECTION IN NONPERMISSIVE CELL: (is you do not have permission to come in, you are dngerous) IN
WHICH THE VIRUS TRANSFORMS THE CELL WITHOUT
COMPLETING ITS REPLICATION CYCLE. CANCER
