And please give information and explain the modeling of this disease with IPS cells. provide information about the process. Thank youarrow_forwardThe best strategy for treating a specific type of human tumor can depend on identifying the type of cell that became cancerous to give rise to the tumor. For some tumors that have colonized a distant location (metastasized), identifying the parental cell type can be difficult. Because the type of IF protein expressed is cell-type-specific, using monoclonal antibodies that react with only one type of IF protein can help in this identification. What IF proteins would you produce monoclonal antibodies against to identify (a) a sarcoma of muscle cell origin, (b) an epithelial cell carcinoma, and (c) an astrocytoma (glial cell tumor)?arrow_forwardhttps://biomanbio.com/HTML5GamesandLabs/Cellgames/celldefensehtml5page.html to start the activities.

- Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a disorder caused by a random change in the gene that produces the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. In people with CF, random CFTR gene changes can disrupt the CFTR protein's normal production or function- ing. This protein is typically found in several organs, and as a result, the lungs, pancreas, di- gestive system, and other organs are affected. The symptoms of CF can range from breath- ing difficulties to recurrent infections. Which of the following best describes the effects of cystic fibrosis? A B с D Cystic fibrosis is caused by a gene with multiple alleles. Cystic fibrosis is inherited via incomplete dominance. Cystic fibrosis is a pleiotropic gene. Cystic fibrosis is caused due to polygenic inheritance.arrow_forwardTGF-β1 is a protein that affects cell growth and differentiation. Scientists conducted an experiment where epithelial cells were treated with transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) in the laboratory. At the end of the experiment, the epithelial cells had transformed through several stages from epithelial cells to embryonic stem cells (ESCs) to neural progenitor cells (NPCs), and finally to cortical neurons (CNs). The scientists observed the transformation of the cells by analyzing gene expression at certain stages (M1-M7) and determined the relative gene expression level, as shown in the graph. The graph shows the relative gene expression level for cells at different stages of differentiation. Which of the following claims could account for the differences in gene expression at each stage of cell differentiation, and how does this correlate with the distance of the genes on the chromosome?
