Q

Metastasis steps

A

Cancer cells leaves the site of primary tumor, pass through to tumor basement membrane then through or between endothelial cells, enter the circulation , resist annoikis, evade immune recognition, arrest at distant organs , leave circulation, survive in a hostile microenvirommetn

Q

Promotion can result in

A

Formation of a benign tumor

21
Q

Is promotion reversible

22
Q

Progression is

A

Benign to malignant

23
Q

An accumulation of mutations lead to

A

Uncontrolled cell growth

24
Q

What are some intrinsic factors which allow mutations to arise

A

Inherited, hormonal, reactive oxygen intermediates

25
Hormonal intrinsic factors causing mutations, what is an example of this
Mammary tumors and perianal tumors
26
What is an example of intrisinic ROS
Aging and inflammation
27
Inflammation causing mutations can produce tumors such as
SCC in dogs, feline injection site sarcomas, FPTOS
28
FPTOS what is the time period between trauma and diagnosis
7 year
29
What viruses cause lymphoma
Bovine leukosis, avian leukosis, and feline leukemia
30
Insertional mutagenesis reliever
Oncogenes or disrupt cellular oncogenes
31
Bovine papillomaviruses can cause e
Equine sarcoidosis
32
Complete carcinogen
Can push through all three stages on their own
33
What is an examples of complete carcinogen
Ultraviolet radiation
34
4 examples of genes that mutations that can be critical for neoplasms to arise
Proto-oncogenes, tumor suppressor genders, DNA repairs genes, genders that regulate apoptosis
35
Protoconcogenes
Excess of stimulation of the cell cycle
36
Tumor suppressor genes
Deficiency of cell cycle inhibition
37
DNA repair genes
Failure to recognize and repair damaged DNA
38
Genes that regulate apoptosis
Failure to induce apoptosis on injured cells
39
G1/S cell cycle
Monitors DNA integrity, irreversibility commits cell resources to DNA replication
40
What happens after G1/S checkpoint
Cell replication occurs independently to Extracellular growth signals
41
G2/ M checkpoint
Pre-mitosis check point that ensures DNA replication is accurate before the cell divides
42
Which cell cycle checkpoint checks for DNA synthesis errors
G2/M
43
Which cell cycle checkpoints make sure DNA is safe to duplicate
G1/S
44
Protooncogenes are genes taht promote
Autonomous cell growth
45
What can cause Genoese that promote cell growth to mutate
Growth factors are overproduced, growth factor receptors, cycling are over-produced and allow progression through the cell cycle
46
When mutated, protoncogenes turn to
Oncogenes
47
Tumor suppressor genes aer genes that stop
The cell cycle
48
What are samples of tumor supressor genes
P53
49
DNA repair genes allow accumulation of
More and more mutations
