6. Human cells have a built-in limitation on the number of times they can divide The cell division is cotrolled not only by extracellular mitogens but also by intracellular mechanisms that can limit cell proliferation. Cell-cycle arrest or apoptosis induced by excessive stimulation of mitogenic pathways.

7. Extracellular growth factors stimulate cell growth Activation of cell-surface receptors Activation of PI 3-kinase Activation of elF4E (translation initiation factor) and S6 kinase(phosphorylates ribosomal protein S6) Increasing protein synthesis and cell growth

13. Contrast ofApoptosis and necrosis ApoptosisNecrosis Death by apoptosis is a neat, orderly process

14. 3.Molecular mechanisms of apoptosis Early researches (MIT: Robert Horrid, 1986) C. elegans:1090 cells, The Finding of CED3 mutant Without losing any of their cells to apoptosis. CED3 gene play a crucial role in the process of apoptosis. C elegans: a millimeter long, transparent body only a few cell types, from zygote to mature adult only in 3.5days. 131 cells death.

15. 线虫体细胞凋亡研究： PCD 相关基因 15 个，分为四组： 1 、与 PCD 有关的基因，负责 PCD 控制： ced-3 、 ced-4 和 ced-9 。 2 、与 PCD 过程吞噬作用有关： ced-1 、 ced-2 、 ced-5-8 和 ced-10 。 3 、核酸酶基因（ nuc-1 ）, 控制 DNA 降解，但非 PCD 所必须。 4 、影响特异细胞类型 PCD 的基因： ces-1 、 ces-2 、 cgl-1 、和 her-1. 保守性高，在哺乳动物中有相应同源物： Ced-3=ICE, Ced-4=Apaf-1, Ced-9=Bcl-2. Mammalian: CED3 is related to mammalian interleukin- 1ß–converting enzyme (ICE or caspase-1)

16. Apoptosis is carried out by a proteolytic system — caspase (1) Why called caspase? Active site: Cysteine Cleavage site: Asparatic acid Cysteine Asparatic acid specific protease Aps-Xxx 天冬氨酸特异性的半光氨酸蛋白水解酶

17. Apoptosis can be divided into two phases ：  Activation phase ： The cell responds to “death signals” that commit it to undergoing self-destruction.  Execution phase ： The death sentence is carried out. Apoptosis cells are recognized by phagocytes because they carry exposed markers, called “eat me” signals. The best studied “eat me” signal is the presence of phosphatidylserine molecules in the outer leaflet of PM of apoptotic cells (by flop-flipase).

18. How to activate caspases? All caspases expressed as proenzymes— Procaspases Procaspase NH2-terminal prodomain: Highly variable Large subunit (20kD) Small subunit (10kD) How are procaspases activated to initiate the caspase cascade? The activation is triggered by adaptor proteins that bring multiple copies of specific procaspases. 3 groups of caspase: 1 、 apoptotic initiators: caspase-2, caspase-8, caspase-9 and caspase-10 2 、 apoptotic executioners: caspase-3, caspase-6 ， caspase-7 and 14 (morphology change) 3 、 inflammatory mediateors: caspase-1, and caspase-11

19. Procaspases are activated by binding to adaptor proteins The caspase cascade involved in apoptosis A.Procaspase activation by proteolytic cleavage. B.Caspase cascade

20. The target proteins of caspase are the following:  More than a dozen protein kinase, including FAK, PKC, and Raf1. FAK– disrupt cell adhesion for the apoptotic cell.  Lamins. Cleavage of lamins leads to the disassembly of the nuclear lamina and shrinkage of the nucleus.  Proteins required for cell structure. Such as IF, actin, and gelsilin. Cleavage and inactivation of these proteins lead to changes in cell shape. Induce cell display signals marked it for phagocytosis.

21.  The inhibitor of CAD (Caspase-activated Dnase, an endonuclease). Cleavage of CAD inhibitor lead to activation of CAD, once activated, CAD translocates from the cytosol to the nucleus severing DNA into fragments.  Enzymes involved in DNA repair. Which are inactivated by caspase cleavage. DNA repair is a homeostatic activity that is inappropriate in an apoptotic cell.

22. Molecular pathways of apoptosis Two principle pathways Extrinsic pathway Intrinsic pathway

23. (1) Extrinsic pathway: Fas Signaling Pathway Fas (also called Apo-1 or CD95) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily. Receptor-mediated pathway of apoptosis Bcl-2 Family (cytoplasmic factors): Bad,Bid,and bax: promote apoptosis; Bcl-X, Bcl-w,and Bcl-2: prevent apoptosis. Internal stimuli: DNA damage, high Ca 2+, Oxidative stress

25. (2) Intrinsic pathway: Mitochondrial pathway The mitochondria-mediated pathway of apoptosis Various types ofcellular stress Bcl-2 family: Bad or Bax to become inserted into OM of Mit Release of cytochrome c from I-O space of Mit. Form a multisubunit complex; and Caspase Cascade,…

26. Activation of caspase- 2 is required for permeabilization of mitochondria, release of cytochrome c, and apoptosis
