Explore how internal and external factors regulate cell division, the role of growth factors, checkpoints, apoptosis, and the dangers of uncontrolled cell growth in cancer. Learn about tumors, mutations, and environmental influences on cancer occurrence.

KEY CONCEPTCell cycle regulation is necessary for healthy growth.
Objectives for section 5-3 • Describe the internal and external factors that regulate cell division • Relate cancer to the cell cycle.
Internal and external factors regulate cell division. • External factors include physical and chemical signals and trigger internal factors, which affect the cell cycle. • Growth factors are proteins that stimulate cell division. -Most mammal cells form a single layer in a culture dish and stop dividing once they touch other cells.
Two of the most important INTERNAL factors are kinases and cyclins. -Cyclin, a protein, binds to cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) to start various activities in cell cycle • Like key in ignition of car • Different combos signal other activities such as DNA replication and protein synthesis
Quality Control Checkpoints -Cell cycle has built-in checkpoints that monitor cycle and can stop it if something goes wrong • G1 checkpoint: decision of whether cell will divide • G2 checkpoint: DNA replication is checked • Mitosis checkpoint: triggers exit from mitosis
Apoptosis is programmed cell death • Cells actually shrink and shrivel in a controlled process
webbed fingers • Apoptosis is a normal feature of healthy organisms • caused by a cell’s production of self-destructive enzymes • occurs indevelopmentof infants • Falling leaves in Autumn
Cell division is uncontrolled in cancer. -Cancer is uncontrolled growth and division of cells -Cancer cells can kill an organism by crowding out normal cells, resulting in loss of tissue function

Cancer cells do not carry out necessary functions. • Cancer cells come from normal cells with damage to genes involved in cell-cycle regulation. • Can be due to mutations (multiple)
Various environmental factors can also affect occurrence of cancer cells -Carcinogens are cancer causing substances and agents Skin Cancers
Multiple changes in DNA required to change abnormal cell into cancer cell Largest tumor ever - 303lbs Breast cancer cell
16 lb facial tumor Oral cancer • Cancer is “simply” uncontrolled cell growth!
As of 2016 (ten years later), MarlieCasseus, now 23, has had ten additional surgeries.
Standard cancer treatments typically kill both cancerous and healthy cells. • Radiation, chemotherapy, HeLa cells
