CAR-T Cells: Engineered Cancer Killers
The Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre is a unique Australian institution consisting of a world-leading cancer research program integrated within a world-leading cancer hospital.
Based on 25 years of research, we are the first site in Australia fully licensed to manufacture Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR)-T cells for treatment of blood cancers such as leukaemias and lymphomas. The process involves engineering a patient’s own T cells to express Chimeric Antigen Receptors, or CARs on the cell surface.
When the CAR-T cells are re-infused into the patient, they multiply rapidly and the CARs enable them to specifically seek and destroy cancer cells throughout the body. For some patients this has prov...

The Role of p53 in Cancer
Просмотров 100 тыс.4 года назад
p53 is a sentinel protein recruited rapidly in response to DNA damage. p53 slides along the DNA until it finds a critical site, to which it binds. p53 then sends the message, to halt cell division until DNA is repaired, or If damage is too severe, the cell is destroyed. p53 is therefore known as the ‘guardian of the genome.’ A tiny change in p53 results in a structure that is unable to securely...
DNA Damage and Repair
Просмотров 61 тыс.4 года назад
DNA provides the blueprint to create proteins, which are the building blocks of our body. Remarkably, we are subject to vast amounts of DNA damage everyday due to environmental agents and even the byproducts of metabolism. This DNA damage can occur in a variety of different forms. Most of the time our cells do a very good job of dealing with DNA damage and have complex processes in place to rep...
The Role of KRas in Cancer
Просмотров 2,6 тыс.4 года назад
KRas is a protein that controls how often a cell divides. To do this it needs to be switched on before it can turn on cell division pathways. When no longer needed, it is then turned off. A tiny alteration in KRas leads to a protein that is always switched on. This means that the cell division pathways are also constantly switched on. In this situation, cells are more likely to multiply outside...
The Role of BRCA1 in Cancer
Просмотров 17 тыс.4 года назад
BRCA1 is an integral protein in the DNA repair pathway. Inherited alterations in the structure of BRCA1 cause interruption of the DNA repair process, which over time, lead to accumulation of more and more DNA damage in cells. This greatly increases the risk for cancer. Women afflicted with these inherited changes in BRCA1 face a lifetime of constant surveillance and medical intervention to figh...

    I just visited my friend in hospital day 36 at UCLA, who has the P53 mutation and Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL). Seeing her strength firsthand, despite her white blood cell count being at 0.9, has been incredibly inspiring. It's true what they say: the best teacher is learning from a patient. My friend is the most resilient person I know, and their journey is a powerful reminder of the strength and courage in the face of adversity.

    Quick two part question. How does the introduction of the spike protein impact the ability of p53 to bind to and repair or destroy damaged DNA strands? And does this have an impact on pathosis' like breast cancer?

    • @Jo.King_
      @Jo.King_ 8 месяцев назад

      mRNA spike protein binds p53 and other cancer suppressor genes. It is very clear and very frightening that these vaccines have several elements to cause a perfect storm in cancer development in those patients lucky enough to have avoided heart attacks, clots, strokes, autoimmune diseases and other common adverse reactions to the Covid vaccines. To advise booster vaccines, as is the current case, is no more and no less than medical incompetence; to continue to do so with the above information is medical negligence which can carry a custodial sentence. No ifs or buts any longer. All mRNA vaccines must be halted and banned now." Angus Dalgleish

    • @Nikthehermit
      @Nikthehermit 2 месяца назад

      Everyone has the p53. It is a gene that regulates cell proliferation. This means when a cell decides what to do with its energy potential, divide or die are the options. P53 regulates this, it is a gene which is part of your DNA. It’s how your DNA knows how to function, gene is like “key” or tool for your DNA. Deregulation of this cell can change the rate at which cells are created. When functioning properly in (remember when all this gene, put some have mutations) a human body it fights cancer, and viruses. It regulated any biological process related to the cell’s ability to reproduce. As cell may choose “Apotosis” and die, because it is corrupted. A cell would understand that it’s necessary to program its own death, due to it becoming a corrupted “file” in the body. Modulating this gene is difficult because it’s not so much amount turning it “up” or “down” it’s about getting it to regulate itself consistently where cell regulation is concerned. Hope this helps, best of luck.

    How awesome! Are there other videos like this on all sorts of biological processes? I def hit the bell on this channel. PS, ever since the first animation like these that ever saw, about DNA copying, I still wonder how it's possible for these mere molecules or small collections of amino acids can be 'moving', or sending signals and apparently behaving independently, like the p53 protein made of just 396 amino acids. How are any of these molecules, floating around in cytoplasm, moving around or sensing anything? With no strings, no motors, it all looks like some mental force field doing everything.
