Recently, new anti-aging skin creams have been developed that claim to harness the power of stem cells. One such skin cream contains stem cells from red grape plants, and the manufacturer claims that it will “restore our skin’s stem cells” Do you think this cream will fulfill the manufacturer's promise? Explain.

- Please help me with this question. More than one answer may be correct. A greater number of protocadherin genes ____. Options: A) are found in Drosophila than humans B) were the precursors to megacadherin, which eventually defeated Dr. Wily C) are present in vertebrates than classical cadherin genes D) are associated with larger brains E) are found in octopuses than humansarrow_forwardDynamic instability causes microtubules either to grow or to shrink rapidly. Consider an individual microtubule that is in its shrinking phase. What would need to happen at the end of the microtubule in order for it to stop shrinking and to start growing again? Be specific! What would happen if only GDP, but no GTP, were present in the solution? What would happen if the solution contained an analog of GTP that cannot be hydrolyzed?arrow_forwardOh no! A mutation in the gene for G2 CDK has caused a problem with binding of the G2 cyclin. This prevents formation of the MPF. What would this mean for cell division and why? Select one: a. The MPF is needed for anchorage dependence. So without the MPF, the cell cannot anchor to a substrate. b. Without the MPF, gene expression for enzymes of DNA replication will be halted stopping S phase of interphase but not stopping cell division. c. Without the MPF, phosphates won't be added to the nuclear lamina so DNA will not be moved around the cell and cell division is effectively halted. d. Without the MPF, the APC will not add ubiquitin to the intermediate filaments of the nuclear lamina stopping cell division.arrow_forward
- Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are cancer cells (found within tumors or hematological cancers) that possess characteristics associated with normal stem cells, specifically the ability to give rise to all cell types found in a particular cancer sample. There are many biomedical engineering based approaches to detect CSCs. Question: What is the importance and advanatge of detecting Cancer stem cells (CSCs)? Please explain in details with your own words. Thank you.arrow_forwardBONUS QUESTION! In neurons, the proteolytic enzyme y-secretase produces the Aß amyloid peptides shown below. The AB40 peptide is thought to play a protective role in the neuron. However, the AB42 peptide appears to be toxic since it is found in the amyloid plaques that cause Alzheimer's Disease (AD). AB40 and AB42 are identical, except that AB42 contains two extra amino acid residues (shown in red) at the C-terminal end. Based on your knowledge of amino acids and proteins, which of the following factors is most likely to explain the greater plaque-forming activity of AB42 compared to AB40? Sequence of Aß40: DAEFRHDSGYEVHHQKLVFFAEDVGSNKGAIIGLMVGGVV Sequence of AB42: DAEFRHDSGYEVHHQKLVFFAEDVGSNKGAIIGLMVGGVVIA O The greater length of AB42 makes it more likely to aggregate and form plaques. O AB42 has a lower pl than AB40, which makes it more likely to aggregate at physiological pH. O AB42 is more hydrophobic than AB40, which makes it harder to clear from the cell and thus more likely to…arrow_forwardWould like a better explanation on Foxp3. Typed what I know for the first questoin In the discussion section the authors wrote “In a previous study, Dombrowski et al. [44], has reported that Treg cells are able to promote myelination and remyelination and its transcriptional factor, Foxp3, is a good indicator of Tregs activity [21, 45].” Where in the cell does Foxp3 act? The FOXP3 protein is found in an immune system gland called the thymus, where regulatory T cells are produced. Foxp3 is a master regulator of transcription in a specific T-cell type, CD4 (+) regulatory T cells (Treg). Foxp3 is a good indicator of Tregs activity.

Pyrene is a fluorescent molecule, which has very low level of fluorescence on its own or when fused to G-actin. However, the pyrene fluorescence increases dramatically when pyrene-labeled G-actin is incorporated into a polymer. In this assay, the amount of pyrene fluorescence is proportional to the amount of actin polymer. In the figure below, actin polymerization curves resulted for conditions listed below; assume that G-actin concentration is above the critical concentration for the pointed end and that ATP is present. Which curve corresponds to which condition? Explainarrow_forward
