CMMB 413 Exam with 100% Correct Answers | Verified | Latest 2024 Version Define and describe cancer uncontrolled growth from the multistep accumulation of errors (ie. a genetic process) in genes involved in cell growth (ie control it) ie cell replication and cell death the first step can be inherited natural aging mechanism, cause of most "old age" deaths define neoplasia new growth define hyperplasia too much growth, looks like accumulation of normal looking cells on top of each othe...

(Things that happen with bases) Deletion Addition Duplication Inversion Translocation What is a hereditary mutation? Substitution When a gameate containing a mutation for a type of cancer or genetic disorder is fertilised then it will be present in new foetus What happens during frameshift mutations? Additions, duplications or deletions wit...

Provides a complete in depth overview of cancer biology, including the molecular basics of cancer to how treatments are developed. Demonstrates examples of different cancers and how these specifically develop, the pathways involved and specific mutations. Highlights the complexity in the malignant phenotype.

This summary described different types of mutations in cancer-critical genes, such as oncogenes and tumour suppressor genes. This summary can be used for the course "tumorcelbiologie".

Lecture notes from Imperial College London, Medical Biosciences BSc, 2nd year, Cancer Biology (CBIO) module For a cancer to be initiated, certain changes must take place within the genes of a cell. These genes usually control the process of cells growing and reproducing only as required, in an orderly and controlled way (cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival). Studies of tumour viruses revealed that specific genes (called oncogenes) are capable of inducing oncogenic cell changes, ...

Revision notes for Cancer Biology covering control of the cell cycle, molecular mechanisms (CDK and Cyclins), cell cycle checkpoints, response to DNA damage. Introduction to oncogenes and tumor suppressors and how various mechanisms link to the hallmarks of cancer.

What characterizes cancer, and how does it differ from normal cell growth? - correct answer Cancer is marked by abnormal and uncontrolled growth, disrupting the balance between new cell growth and old cell death, unlike normal tissues where this balance is maintained. Distinguish between benign and malignant tumors. - correct answer Benign tumors typically do not invade or metastasize, while malignant tumors have the potential to spread through invasion and metas...
