Homework Answers
a )The common methods used to drug delivery in camcer using nanoparticles technology are
1.Protein bound nano drug. the nanoparticles drugs are enclosed in protein , so that it ensures the release of drugs at needed place. eg Paclitmel drug used in breast cancer treatment
2.liposomes bound nano particle drug. the drugs are enclosed in liposomes
eg Doxil used in treatment of kaposi sarcoma
b) The regulatory mechanisms steps are following
1.The hormones are the cellular mediators help in stimulation and controling growth response extracellularly,
2. when a hormone binds to its receptor, this stimulates the enzyme activation in cell, leads to growth or suppression according to hormones bind to the receptors

A drug used for treating cancer has potentially dangerous side effects if it is taken in doses higher than needed for treatment. The pharmaceutical company that manufactures the drug must be certain that the standard deviation of the drug content in each tablet is less than 0.1 mg. Fifteen tablets are analyzed to determine the amount of the drug in them. The sample mean is 20 mg, and the sample standard deviation is 0.08 mg. Step 2 of 5: If...

A drug, which is used for treating cancer, has potentially dangerous side effects if it is taken in doses which are larger than the required dosage for the treatment. The tablet should contain 56.02mg and the standard deviation should be 0.02. 12 tablets are randomly selected and the amount of drug in each tablet is measured. The sample has a mean of 56.025mg and a variance of 0.0001mg. Does the data suggest at α=0.05 that the tablets vary by less...

A cancer cell undergoes cell division in an unregulated manner (for example, when no growth factors are present). Alterations of the following factors could cause cells to exhibit such ‘uncontrolled growth’ characteristics. Determine whether the gene encoding the specified factor behaves like an oncogene/proto-oncogene or a tumor suppressor gene. Briefly explain your reasoning. A kinase that functions in a growth factor signal transduction pathway. A CDK that functions in cell cycle regulation. A kinase that functions to turn off the CDK described in...
