Explain the pathway the drug Taxol interferes with. How is this pathway different in normal versus cancer cells?
Homework Answers
Taxol drug used to inhibit the tubulin. It usually stabilize the microtubules polymer and does not allow to dissociate during mitosis.
So this causes late division which result in apoptosis or enters into G0 stage of cell.
In normal cell division is under control the checkpoints and it occurs only when required.
While in case of cancer cell they divide enormously and leads to tumor formation. So this taxol inhibit the tubule and stop cell division.

Look up the following cancer drugs/therapyand explain how each works. In your answer include mechanism of action, drug/therapytarget (specific protein), and specific pathway targeted. Explain why this is an anti-cancer drug/therapy(what is it doing to the cancer cells?) Be sure to include references used .a.ABT-737 b.ONYX-015 c.vinblastine d.cyclapolin e.TNP-470

For the drug NEXIUM describe briefly the normal cell biology, the pathogenic state and how the drug alters the pathogenic state. Remember - “a picture is worth a thousand words” – the use of a figure depicting a pathway map and indicating the point at which the drug acts is highly encouraged. Furthermore, you will develop and present an experimental plan by which you can prove where in the cell the drug acts; what cellular functions it modulates and the mechanism...

Antibodies have been used in drug development in targeting specific tissues and part of the normal humoral immune response. Recently, new anti-cancer antibodies have been developed as a new type of chemotherapy agent. Identify disease and describe how you could design a “drug” based on an antibody. Describe how this drug could enhance the immune response. Explain why this could be an effective treatment for that disease. Identify both, advantages and disadvantages, to this strategy. Please be sure to validate...
