Lecture 7 Flashcards
oncotype DX
a test that predicts how likely breast cancer is to spread to somewhere else in the body (secondary breast cancer) within 10 years of diagnosis
standard breast cancer DX
clinical and histopathological data
molecular breast cancer dx
intrinsic gene expression
quiescence
temporary termination of cell division stalled at checkpoint or G0
- defined as G0, or stopping at any of the checkpoints
senescence
permanent termination of cell division
- ha reached the haflick limit ehich is roughly 50 cell divisions limited by chromosomal telomeres
mitotic crises
cell death during mitosis
- due to DNA damage
Necrosis
traumatic cells death
- passive process due to injury
Programmed cell death
- require ATP and are organized
examples of programmed cell death
apoptosis
anoikis
effereocytosis, autography,etc
extrinsic apoptosis key factor
TNF receptor (tumor necrosis factor)
intrinsic apoptosis key factor
DNA damage
- or hypoxnia and cell cycle abnormalities
