Presentation Transcript

  1. Review Watch the following video and write down the organelles and transport systems that you recognize. Find at least 3 “Inner Life of a Cell” http://www.studiodaily.com/main/technique/tprojects/6850.html

  2. 2.3 Applications of Cellular Transport in Industry and Medicine

  3. Knowledge about the cell membrane has prompted industrial use of synthetics to mimic natural functions This area is known as membrane technologies

  4. Proteins Recognition proteins are embedded in the cell membrane, but stick out into the cell’s surroundings They allow cells to recognize one another

  5. Proteins Receptor proteins bind specifically with certain molecules to bring them into the cells by endocytosis Viruses such as HIV use receptor proteins to target human cells http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nh18FvzjFnQ

  7. Synthetic Membrane Technology Liposomes are fluid filled sacs surrounded by a phospholipid bilayer identical to the cell membrane in human cells They are used to deliver drugs to infected areas of the body Liposomes are used in gene therapy by injecting DNA into tumour cells

  8. Transport of Protein Hormones Insulin is a small protein produced in the pancreas It is a hormone, meaning that it is secreted into the bloodstream and binds with membrane receptors Specialized cells in the pancreas have channels that detect glucose in the bloodstream, this initiates the release of insulin The binding of the insulin and glucose stimulates the rate of movement into the cells using facilitated diffusion.

  9. Reverse Osmosis Desalination is the process of removing salt from sea water in order to make it drinkable. This process is known as reverse osmosis because the water moves from low water concentrations (high salt concentration) to a high water concentration (low salt concentration).

  10. Reverse Osmosis RO makes use of semi-permeable membranes that allow water to be forced through but filter out molecules or micro-organisms

  11. Peritoneal Dialysis Read section on page 286 and 287 on Peritoneal Dialysis In groups of three (with people you are sitting by) work on Minds On… Simulating Peritoneal Dialysis In the next class you will present this information

  12. To Do Answer questions 2-6 on page 288
