Molecular Cell Biology Flashcards
Endocytosis
Bring things into the cell
Translation makes
Proteins
What are biomarkers
Indicator of normal biological processes, pathogenic response, Fama logical response, therapeutic intervention to help see the abnormal
Bio markers are used for
Diagnosis, prediction of drug response, treatment response, prognosis, disease progression
Bio markers use what characteristics
Objective and quantifiable characteristics
What is translational research
Love observations go to clinical trials go to patients go to practice and then back to lab observations
Examples of translational research
Selective targeting of cancer cells, TNF
In TNF cytokine is involved in
Inflammation
The molecular pathway initiate
Information
Antibody drug conjugates reduce
Side-effects as they target exact cells
What is stratified medicine
Where are subgroup that have distinct characteristics are compared
What is personalised medicine
Tailor-made therapy
What is genetherapy
Where they replace a defective gene with a functional one eg. CRISPR
