Cell Death, Apop/Autophagy Flashcards
apop definition
death by programmed cell death-death by suicide
autophagy defintion
catabolic process includeing digression of cells own component through lysosomes
-cell eats itself
Ncrosis definition
Premature death of cells death by external
Intracellualr=Apoptosis
very similar between different species-same things die
Apoptosis uses
tissue sculpting
Eliminate used T and B cells
Tissue hoeostatus
Eliminating damaged cells
Syndactiliy
no apoptosis between digits
-more severe form of webbing-no differentiation between fingers
caspase-9
apoptosis protein
morphological markers of apop
INTACT CELL MEMBRANES!!!!
large clear valcuoules on surface
look like splitting up into small circles (blebs)
loss of cell cell adhesion
PS flipping
marker of apoptosis
phosphotidyl serine (normally on cyto side-moves to other side_
Annexin 5
antibody to phosphotidyl serine
tell degree of apoptosis
TUNEL
label nicks that are in DNA of apoptotic cells
0added by terminal transferase-adds dUTP
TUNEL advantages/disadvantes
Highsenestity, fast, high reproductibility
No idea of number of strands breaks needed for detection-may miss early stages
- nectrotic cells cause fale positive
- detergent for permeablitizng cells-make fragile
Biomolecular diagnosis for apop
membrane intact, DNA ladering, PS flipping, TUNEl
DNA laddering
caspase degrades DNA-in little ladder rungs
-normal cell is just smear or 1 pand
caspase activation
at 33 kda
can rescue cells after capsize is activated
-remove noxious element
capspases must be cleaved to become activef
- two proteolytic cleavages activate initiator
- initator cleaves effector
cell extrinisic apoptotic pathway
proapoptotic ligand binds to death receptor and activates caspases
caspase facts
cleaved to become active
inititator caspse- 2,8,9, 10
effector (exectue) caspases-3, 6, 7
regulated post translationally (reapidly activated)
caspase cascade (with numbers)
pro-apop stimulus
2,8,9, 10
3,6,7
what does effector cleave? initiator?
initator cleaves effector
effector cleaves nuclear lamina, inhibitors of DNAases (DFF450), Actin
DFF45 inhibits
DFF40-normally exist as inert dimer
-DFF40 oligomerizes before cutting
begins cleaving
Intrinsic apop pathway proteins
BCL2 proteins
-pro-apoptotic- BAX and BAK
-Anti-BCl2, BCL-XL, MCL1
Regulators-DA
BCL
responsible for keeping integrity of mito membrane
Insrinsic apop pathway
LACK of survival signals/DNA damage
-activation of sensor proteins (BH3 only)
-these adhere to mito membrane and make leaky
-leakiness activates Bax/Bak channel
-leakage of city c and other proteins
-also bcl2 is antagonized by BH3 protein-plug up channel
-2, 8-10 get cleaved
-cleave 367
Apop
intrinsic app when cell viable
survival signal and growth factor
-produceds bcl2
bcl2 keeps integrity of protein
