Scientific therapies and medicines are usually developed by first experimenting on animals. These are then used for the betterment of patients. For almost as long as we know, model animals are used as subjects for investigation and that ends with medicines or other treatments for patients. This has been unidirectional all along. But a notion has come up recently that the medicines or treatments that are used for patients can be used to treat lab animals that need medication and attention. This is referred to as "from bedside to cageside". It means that bedside medications can be used for the betterment of laboratory animals.
For the biology of cancer - please explain Alkyl transferases and the reactions they catalyze.
In cancer biology, it is important to understand the difference in types of cell growth in order to properly diagnose and treat cancers. With tumors, what are the similarities and differences between a benign tumor and a malignant tumor?
In molecular biology, what's the meaning of the terms "downstream signaling" and "upstream signaling"? What's the difference between them?
Molecular biology. Bio of the gene. 1. Describe the meaning of each of the following terms with regard to the structure of DNA. (2) a. Polymer b. Complimentary base pairing- c. Directionality - d. Hydrogen bonding- e. Antiparallel- f Major vs. minor groove - g. Genome- h. Gene - i. Chromosome- 2. What is the relationship between a molecule and a living organism?
In cancer biology there are many ethical delimas that professionals come across. An example of an ethical delimma would be reducing bias in recruitment with clinical trial research. Discuss who should be involved in the decision making process, who are the stakeholders, and how can the greater good be achieved.
For Biology of Cancer- Please Explain The regulation of expression of the Ah locus, the protein products regulated by the activities of each gene, the mechanisms of AH-induced gene expression. Should be able to reason (and give an example) on how a selective or aberrant regulation of the Ah-locus might affect the predisposition to malignancies associated with exposure to AH (such as in smoking).
From the perspective of biology, what should be the criteria for a gene/protein to be considered a good target for drugging in cancer?
For Molecular Cell Biology 8th edition: Chapter3: Problem 3RC: There is no answer to “by what concentration would you multiply this rate constant in order to determine an actual rate of product formation?” I don’t quite understand the meaning of this question as well as the possible answer to it. I would like some help.
cancer biology 15. The carly pioneers of oncogene research were using a 3T3 cell transformation assay, an immortalized mouse cell line that "stacks the deck" in favor of transformation- and enables it via transfection with a single oncogene. Which of the following is NOT TRUE regarding 3T3 cells? 1. They were immortalized spontaneously. b. They evolve within the first 25 cell-transfers from a diploid to a tetrapl C. They are 100% disome (normal karyotype). d. They show chromosomal imbalances typical...
1. What are the classic bedside signs of death? 2. State the dead donor rule.
