Unfolded protein response Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Introduction An abundance of changes occur at the cellular level in patients who smoke cigarettes. Some of the cell processes that are effected by cigarette smoke include: induces mucous secretion, inhibits cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator function, endoplasmic reticulum stress, unfolded protein response, altered ceramide metabolism and apoptosis (Cantin, 2010). These cellular changes can lead to a variety of symptoms and disease within the lungs such as: increased risk ...

(chapter5) Microbiology Test 2 1. Which growth phase has the largest increase in cell numbers per unit of time? death phase exponential phase lag phase stationary phase In which growth p hase is there no increase or decrease in cell number because some cells are dividing while others are dying? death phase exponential phase lag phase stationary phase To speed up the growth rate in a chemostat, the should be increased. To increase the cell density as well, the should be increased. A. dilution rat...

Molecular Mechanisms in Exercise-Induced Cardioprotection. It is generally accepted that regular exercise is an effective way for reducing cardiovascular morbidity and mortality [1]. Physical inactivity and obesity are also increasingly recognized as modifiable behavioral risk factors for a wide range of chronic diseases, including cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, epidemiologic investigations indicate that the survival rate of heart attack victims is greater in physically active pers...

This handwritten document is a summary of all the self-study pages mentioned in the lectures of cell biology in course 5. Actual lecture notes are sold separately per lecture session to allow you to focus more on certain areas that think need improvement.
