prostate SC

niche

presence of several types of supportive cells and signalling molecules

induced pluripotency

by transcription factors


oct4


sox2


c-Myc


klf4

where can embryonic stem cell proliferate?

in vitro


in vivo

characteristic of adult stem cells

residue in several organs




have self renewal capitability


can generate differentiation

commitment of stem cells

the differentiation is restricted to a specific cell in the future

autonomous scecifity of stem cells

no need for external signal to differentiate (embryonic stem cell)

conditional specification

in adult cells


gets external signals from neighbohrong cells to how to differentiate


organoids

organ bud grown in vitro

aneuploidy

an abnormal number of chromsomes in cell (45\47)

euploidy

having a complete extra set of chromsomes

transition mutation

switching of purin with another purin (or pyrimidin with another pyrimidin)

tranverstion mutation

switching of purin with pyrimidin and vice versa

exogenous DNA alternation sources

UV


pollution


smoking


food


ionizing radiation


xray


chemotherapy



endogenous DNA alternation sources

replication errors


spontaneous DNA alternation


alkylating agents

what kind of damage does UV cause?

covalent bond btw neighborhing Thymin (thymin dimers)

deamination

base exchange



depurination

deletation

intercalating mutagenes

are "like base" and fit btw adjacent base pairs




lead to transitional frameshifts

how many mutation occurs per day in a cell

500,000

how many cell division occurs during life

10^16

base excision repare

1. DNA glycosylase recognizes a wrong base


2. DNA glycosylase removes the wrong base


3. AP nuclase stays on the gap created


4. DNA pol. fills the gap with the correct base


5. DNA ligase connects the adj. parts of the same strand

nucleotise excision repaire

dimers occuring btw same strand


1. uvrA+uvrB recognize mistake


2. uvrB remaines attached to mistake


3.uvrC attaches to the area


4. uvrC cuts one strand away from mistake


5. hilcase separates the 2 strands


6. DNA pol. III fills the gap


7. DNA ligase connects the same strand

mismatch repair

when wrong base are paired (during replication)




1. Muts recongnizes mismatch


2. MutH creates a "nick" in the new strand


3. exonuclease removes the new and marked strand


4. DNA pol. builds new strand


5. ligase

falconi anemia

from bad double stranded break without repair





benign tumors

locally


in invasion


no penetration to basement membrane



malignant tumors

invade tissues


make metastases



source of carcinomas

epithelial tissues

source os squamous cell carcinomas

from epithelia of protective layer

adenocarcinomas

from secretory epithelia

sarcomas

from connective tissue (liposarcoma...)

is only one mutation sufficient for tumor development?

no, at least 4

somatic mutation

de novo, passed in daughter cells, but not to next generations

germ line mutations

in the sperm\egg\ gonads


can be inhereted

proto oncogen

if activated-> can cause cancer


in genes that are responsible for the cell growth\ differentiation




any mutation\ increased expression-> increased activity of cell-> proto oncogen-> oncogen e




Myc, Ras, Src, HER2,

tumor suppressor genes

their function is usually lost in cancer




they "block" the growth and survivial of not so good cells




some genes can also induce "fixing" of DNA
