tumor cells: tumor cells
Researchers from Harvard Medical School, Boston, and the Institute for Systems Biology, Seattle, have discovered that the remains of tumor cells killed by chemotherapy or other cancer treatments can actually stimulate tumor growth by inducing an inflammatory reaction. The study also reveals that a family of molecules called resolvins can suppress this unwanted inflammatory response, suggesting new ways to enhance the effectiveness of existing cancer therapies
Conventional, radiation- and drug-based cancer therapies aim to kill as many tumor cells as possible, but the debris left behind by dead and dying cancer cells can stimulate the production of proinflammatory cytokines, signaling molecules that are known to promote tumor growth.
“Dead and dying tumor cells are an underappreciated component of the tumor microenvironment that may promote tumor progression,” explained Charles N. Serhan, PhD, Director of the Center for Experimental Therapeutics and Reperfusion Injury at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Professor at Harvard Medical School. Serhan and colleagues therefore decided to investigate whether tumor cell debris can stimulate tumor growth.
Explanation:
This is false
hope that helps!
Adenosine triphosphate or ATP is a compound that stores and provides the energy required to perform a variety of biochemical processes in living beings.
After being consumed, it losses one or two of its phosphates and becomes adenosine diphosphate (ADP) or adenosine monophosphate (AMP).
It can also act as a coenzyme and be a precursor to DNA and ARN because it is a nucleic acid.
Each molecule of ATP is a nucleoside triphosphate, formed by an adenine (a nitrogenous base), a ribose (a sugar), and triphosphate.
This means the correct answer is A) nucleic acid
Answer:
True. This is the case where an invasive species has reduced the genetic diversity of indigenous species.
Explanation:
- An invasive species is an exotic, foreign species that takes over a specific habitat or ecosystem and destabilizes it.
- Invasive species disrupt the food chains of an ecosystem which may lead to increase in populations of some species while reducing others.
- Invasive species compete with indigenous species for food, shelter and mates. As the indigenous species cannot reproduce properly, a reduction in their genetic diversity is the direct result.
<span>There are diagnostic analysis used to
identify patients with heart failure. One of which is echocardiogram and chest
x-ray that rely on imaging of the heart to assess its structure and function. Another
ancillary test to detect abnormalities that may point to heart failure is the B
type Natriuretic peptide, the detection of this serum levels is known to rise
in the heart failure syndrome.</span>
