Colony-stimulating factors are hormones that regulate hematopoiesis. Erythropoietin (Epogen), secreted by the kidney, increases bone marrow erythropoiesis. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) stimulates bone marrow leukopoiesis. The most recent colony-stimulating factor is thrombopoietin (TPO), which acts on bone marrow to promote the growth of platelets. These hormones are now produced biosynthetically by recombinant DNA techniques and have shown some impact in the prevention of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia, treatment of cytopenias associated with myelodysplasias, and aplastic anemia. 1. What is erythropoietin? A. A...

2) Given that E6 inactivates p53-dependent pathways, cervical
cancer cells are particularly resistant to traditional treatments
such as chemotherapy, the search is ongoing for new alternative
therapeutics to be used in conjunction with current
chemotherapeutic drugs. One such candidate is the plant flavonoid
Luteolin. In 2014, Ham et al evaluate the effectiveness of Luteolin
on sensitizing cervical cancer cells to apoptosis.
a) In Figure 1, panel A, the researchers looked for an effect on
E6 levels post Luteolin treatment. What...
