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:
The correct answer is estrogen.
<span>Endometrial glands are uterine glands located inside the endometrium. Their appearance varies during the menstrual cycle and it is under the influence of hormones. For example, during the proliferative phase, uterine glands appear due to estrogen secretion by the ovaries while during the secretory phase, due to increase in progesterone secretion, the uterine glands become very coiled with wide lumens and produce a secretion. </span>
<em>The answer is endoplasmic reticulum</em>
Answer:
Mitochondria- glycolysis
ATP synthase- converts ADP to ATP
Inner membrane- electron transport chain
Matrix- krebs cycle
Explanation:
The mitochondria forms the fundamental site for glycolysis. The glucose is broken down enzymatically to produce carbon dioxide, water and ATP. The krebs cycle is the first stage of aerobic respiration. It takes place in the mitochondrial matrix. ATP synthase is an enzyme that generates ATP during the process of cellular respiration. ATP synthase forms ATP from ADP and an inorganic phosphate (Pi) through oxidative phosphorylation. The mitochondrial inner membrane is the site of the electron transport chain, an important step in aerobic respiration. Energy obtained through the transfer of electrons down the ETC is used to pump protons from the matrix into the intermembrane space, creating an electrochemical proton gradient generating ATP.
