A

Type IV hypersensitivity Reaction

26
Q

Contact Dermatitis

A

Type IV hypersensitivity Reaction

27
Q

Type IV hypersensitivity Reaction Rash

Adenocarcinoma

A

ductal or glandular

38
Q

Sarcoma

A

2%
Connective tissue

2 local invasions
3spread to regional structures
4 distant mets

40
Q

TMN rating system (0-3)

A

Gene Amplification

A

factors that cause cells to differentiate to cancer

42

HER 2

A

(human epithelial growth factor 2) breast CA

43
Q

N-MYC

A

(normal cell growth amplifiers) neuroblastoma

44
Q

Causes of Gene Amplification

A

15- 20 % of all cancer is causes by virus
(hep B & C, EBV, Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus, human T-cell leukemia lymphoma virus, HPV)

45
Q

Causes of Gene Amplification

A

Chemical or radiation
Chronic inflammation
Heredity (BRACA gene)

46
Q

Carcinogenesis

A

initiation, progression and promotion theory

47
Q

Stop Cancer

A

Good nutrition = promotes DNA repair
Lessen exposure
Immune system - reject tumor antigens

48
Q

PSA, CEA, Alfa fetoprotein, HPV

A

Tumor specific antigens that can make susceptible to developing Ca
