  • Front
  • Back
in formation of ductal systems, which epithelial cells die?
ones that don't touch BM
Itssues with high rates of proliferation have...
high rates of cell death
can cytotoxic agents, hyperthermia, ischemia, radiation be involved in apoptosis or necrosis?
in necrosis at high levels; in apoptosis at low levels
what is pattern of DNA in gels post apoptosis? necrosis
no pattern for necrosis; 180 bp latter pattern in apoptosis
what does bcl-2 do?
anti-apoptotic

binds Bax which otherwise allows escape of cytochrome C which activates caspases
what does p53 do?
tumor suppressor induced by DNA damage by upping proteins like WAF/Cip-1
WAF?
upregulated by p53 to block cell cycle progression (along with Cip-1)
Cip-1?
upregulated by p53 to block cell cycle progression (along with WAF)
Fas?
TM protein that, when bound by FAS ligand, activates caspases
Caspases?
Cystein proteases that are activated by other proteases
IAPs
inhibitors of apoptosis that act by regulating caspase activity
What regulates culling of neurons
competition for target-drived trophic factors
How long does it take for a whole new version of us to take shape
1 year, except for neurons
what's happening with cell death in actue and chronic renal failure
disregulated cell death
how do viruses affect cell death
secrete proteins that shut down the cell death machinery
how many caspases are there in mammals? humans? what is caspase #13?
13 (numbered 1-14, but no 13) in mammals; 11 in humans
what's the difference between long and short caspases
longs are initiators; shorts are executioners
what kind of proteins are caspases
serine proteases
how do caspases cleave
after asp
do caspases cause apoptosis or necrosis
apoptoses
what is blebbing?
i don't know!
how can you prove that a cell was dying?
detecting caspases
how can caspases be inhibited?
Caspase inhibitors, including:
- viral inhibitors (CRMA, p35)
- zDEVD-FMK
- IAPs
- molecular inhibitors: antisense, siRNA
what are IAPs
Caspase inhibitors
what caspase is necessary in mouse forebrain development
caspase 9
What's the relationship between Caspase and CAD
Caspase, if activated, will cause ICAD to cleave from CAD so that CAD can cause apoptosis and the 180bp fragment
Which pathway is for suicide; which is for murder... intrinsic or extrinsic?
Intrinsic is suicide; extrinsic is murder
which caspases are initiators
8,9,10
which caspases are executioners
3,6,7
What's the key event of the extrinsic pathway
Fas ligand binding to Fas receptor
Caspase failure associated with Breast cancer
3. Also too little BAX
Caspase failure associated with colon cancer
7. Also too little BAX
Cause of apoptosis failure in melanoma
loss of APAF 1
Apoptosis issue in neuroblastoma
An increased IAP (survivin)
Apoptosis issue in lung cancer
cIAP1/2
Apoptosis issue in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
cIAP1
Apoptosis issue in ovarian cancer
