permeability factor (VPF) is an endothelial cell specific mitogen in in vitro and is the main factor responsible for vasculogenesis and angiogenesis in a variety of in vivo models. The gene transcripts level of VEGF is stimulated at the time of implantation because process of implantation occurs under hypoxic condition. In rodents, VEGF is involved during embryo–endometrium crosstalk by regulating endothelial cell proliferation and vascular permeability of endothelial cells at implantation sites…

Creative Title What if theretheir was a way to cure humans by cloning an replica of any body part?. Therapeutic cloning is taking an embryo and extracting the nucleus and transferring it to a human. Therapeutic cloning could help people in many ways because it could help people get new organs and it could help paraplegics. Although, therapeutic cloning is a good idea reproductive cloning would leave children in foster homes. Therapeutic cloning could help people get…

in West Africa. HIV-1 Tat protein is important to viral replication and infectivity. During acute infection, infected cells releases Tat by extracellular means and becomes engulfed by neighboring cells, where it activates viral replication thus increases virus infectivity. Vital brain cells known as neurons can be indirectly damaged by HIV. It infects macrophages and microglia-cells that nurture the brain, causing them to produce toxins that instruct neurons to kill themselves.…

identify concepts on cells and to learn more about the functions and reproduction of cells within living organisms. Lab Summary: While doing this activity we experimented with bacterial growth and I was able to witness growth in its replication. Through the process of mitosis, I was able to view cellular reproduction. Lab Answers A. Bacterial growth observation. The population doubling time is estimated to be 20 minute. B. Cellular reproduction : The three types of cell separation are…

the cell and other organelles. Fractionation is the process of breaking the cells. Firstly, the tissue is added to a solution which is ice cold, with the same water potential as the cells, and with the same PH as the cells. This has the purpose of preserving the cells so they do not rot. This solution is then homogenized, this is essentially blending the solution so the cells break open. There are four possible procedures for this, high frequency sound waves, a mild detergent, forcing cells…

The ways in which cells interact with each other is very similar to many concepts used in the real world due to the interactions between the cells and the techniques used for cell growth. A multitude of the techniques used by the cells in the biological market, during the process of trading metabolic products between bacteria, are almost identical to techniques used by countries, firms, and people in the economic market. Through the trade of metabolic products the cells are functioning as a…

Mitochondria are essential for cell viability. Without functioning mitochondria, the cell cannot be supplied with the energy it needs to survive. Mitochondrial function relies heavily on import of proteins; this is because the proteome is almost exclusively encoded by nuclear genes (Weidberg). When import is prohibited, the mitochondria will send out several mitochondria-to-nucleus signals to try and resolve the issue. The first pathway mentioned in the article is the mtUPR (Mito-Nucleus…

In this book the company BioGen is researching what they believe to be a “Maturity” gene. The testing of this gene has only been done on rats until Josh Winkler, a researcher for BioGen, accidentally exposed his brother to the gene. Josh’s brother was a drug addict and after being exposed to this gene he apparently turned his life around, he was clean from drugs and got a job. When Josh tells his mother what he accidentally did she begins to spread the rumour of Josh’s miracle cure. This puts…

The human body is made up of thousands of cells, each with a defined genetic program that allows them to work synchronically to regulate the metabolic and physiological processes required by the organism. All cells die (not accidentally), because in old age or because they are Cell death by apoptosis plays a crucial role in tissue development and homeostasis. This process is carried out through mitochondrial permeabilization and the activation of caspases. The condensation of chromatin and the…

Macromolecules are of great interest to the study of anatomy and physiology due to the fact that they carry out most functions of a cell providing it with life. They provides structural support, a source of stored fuel, the ability to store and retrieve genetic information, and ability to speed biochemical reactions (Prakash, 2008). There are four main types of macromolecules including proteins, carbohydrates, nucleic acid and lipids. This essay is specifically on the study of carboyhdrates as…
