Summary Introduction
To review:
The relationship between AMPK and mTORC1.
Introduction:
mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) is a component of mTORC1 (mTOR complex 1). mTORC1 is a central kinase sensor, which is involved in the integration of hormonal activity, cellular responses, energy status, and nutrient availability. The results of an activated mTORC1 are increased ribosomes, decreased autophagy, and protein synthesis.

What symptom accounts for the disease’s name? Suggest a possible treatment.arrow_forwardQUESTION NO. 1 Much of procollagen formation occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus which requires signal peptide. All of the following statements about targeting a protein for the ER are true except A. signal peptide usually has a positively charged N-terminus and a stretch of hydrophobic amino acids. B. signal peptide emerging from a free ribosome binds signal recognition particle (SRP). C. signal peptide is usually cleaved from the protein before the protein is inserted into the ER membrane. D. docking protein is actually an SRP receptor and serves to bind the SRP to the ER. E. SRP and docking protein do not enter the ER lumen but are recycledQUESTION NO. 2 All of the following statements about telomerase are correct except A. the RNA component acts as a template for the synthesis of a segment of DNA.

The medicine is used in treatment of patients withprostate cancer. The pharmacokinetics of triptorelin palmoate as free drug follows a 3 compartmentmodel with drug half-lives estimated to be 6 minutes, 45 minutes, and 3 hours, respectively. Threedifferent dosing intervals of Trelstar® are available in clinic: 1 month (3.75 mg), 3 month (11.25mg) and 6 month (containing 22.5 mg of drug).Discuss how encapsulation into PLGA microspheres improves patient therapy with triptorelinpalmoate, and how three dosing intervals available in clinic may have been achieved bymodifications in the formulationarrow_forward
