Q

What are cancer cells?

A

Cancers derived from mutated single cells that have acquired the characteristics of continually dividing in an unrestricted invasive manner into neighboring tissues.
Alterations in the DNA sequence of cancer gene attribute towards the abnormal manner of cancerous cells
All cancers result from changes in the DNA sequence of the genome
Genome within our cells are exposed to mutagens (UV radiation) and accumulates mistakes during replication

2)Transmit signals that signal normal cells within the supporting tumor-associated stroma, reciprocate by supplying cancer cells with growth factors.
3)Hyperresponseive to growth factors ligand, increased receptor proteins
Cancer cells re-regulate release of growth-promoting signals, signals are conveyed by growth factors that bind cell-surface (intracellular tyrosine kinase domains)

97
Q

What are the results from mutated tumor suppressor genes?

Q

What are the four main functions of tumour suppressor genes?

A

1) Repression of genes that are essential for continuing of the cell cycle. Lack of genic expression will result in cell cycle disruption a cell division is inhibited
