21
Q

What does RAS-GTP activate?

A

Activates the MAP-kinase pathway.

22
Q

What does activation of MAPK consist of?

A

Phosphorylation of MAPKKK and then MAPKK and then MAPK

23
Q

What does phosphorylate MAPK translocates what?

A

translocates into the nucleus and activates transcription of early genes.

24
Q

What do jun and fos proteins do in insulin receptor?

A

translocate into the nucleus and activate the transcription of secondary genes, such as GLUT4 and GLUT1

25
Q

What family does RAS belong to and what are they involved in?

A

RAS belongs to monomeric GTPases, involved in relaying signals within the cells to the nucleus, cytoplasm, secretory machinery

26
Q

When RAS binds GTP it is? When RAS is bound to GSP it is..

What is RAS intrinsic GTPase enhanced by?

A

switched on
switched off
accessory proteins

27
Q

What is MAPK signaling involved in?

A

part of a pathway that leads to cell proliferation.

28
Q

What does mutated RAS lack? What does this lead to?

A

lacks GTPase activity, fails to allow signal termination and causes excessive cell proliferation leading to cancer.
Ras is called proto-oncogene

29
Q

Insulin deficient diabetes mellitus:

What are the signs and hows it treated?

A

high blood glucose, defective pancreatic Beta cells, insufficient insulin secretion, low insulin levels, treated with insulin.

30
Q

Insulin Resistant Diabetes Melliktus

A

High blood glucose, defective insulin receptor/signaling in peripheral tissues; insulin resistance at various levels, normal or high plasma insulin levels; treated with insulin.

31
Q

Diabetes mellitus presentation, pathology, and Plasma glucose levels?

A

Presentation - weight loss, polydipsia/polyuria/weakness.
Pathology - hypoglycemia, glucosuria/hyperlipidemia, ketonuria, uremia.
Plasma glucose = 22-44 mM

32
Q

Failure to uptake glucose results in?

A

hypoglycemia > exceed renal threshold > glucosuria
Hyperosmotic plasma > dehydration of cells > hyperglycemic coma
Polydipsia > osmotic diuresis > polyuria

33
Q

Intracellular energy shortage results in..

A

Mobilization of fatty acids > hyperlipidemia.
Metabolism of fatty acids > acetyl-CoA >acetoacetate > 4-OH butyrate + acetone.
Metabolism of fatty acids > keto acidosis > acidotic coma.
Metabolism of fatty acids > ketonuria.
AA metabolism > urea production > uremia.

34
Q

Erythropoietin receptor consists of…

Q

What is cyclin D necessary for?

A

cell division

43
Q

What is Erythropoietin produced by and how is production stiulated?

A

Produced by the kidney; production stimulated by a reduction of oxygen partial pressure

44
Q

Q

A failing kidney may not be able to produce…

A

a sufficient amount of EPO

46
Q

How are low levels of endogenous EPO treated?

A

giving recombinant human EPO, rhEPO can improve status of animal by boosting oxygen delivery to tissues.

Q

Side effects of EPO misuse

A

increase in RBC increases blood velocity and poses risk of embolism
