Many types of cancer are treated with a combination of therapies. In lung cancer, some tumors respond well to the drug paclitaxel followed by radiation treatment. Paclitaxel is a chemical that disrupts mitosis. Instead of spindle fibers originating from the two sides (poles) of the cell, paclitaxel-treated cells develop three poles and then divide into three cells (tripolar division). Radiation therapy is more effective on tumor cells that have undergone tripolar division than on cells that have undergone normal mitosis. Researchers treated cancer cells in the lab with different concentrations of paclitaxel for 15 hours. The researchers then determined the average percent of mitotic cells that were tripolar. The results are shown in Table 1. TABLE 1. EFFECT OF PACLITAXEL CONCENTRATION ON PERCENT OF MITOTIC CELLS THAT WERE TRIPOLAR Concentration of Paclitaxel (nM) Average Percent of Mitotic Cells that were Tripolar (±2SĒx) 0 0.0 ± 0.0 1 18.0 ± 2.5 3 48.0 ± 3.5 5 67.0 ± 5.0 7 75.0 ± 3.0 9 51.0 ± 2.0 The AURKA gene encodes an enzyme that helps assemble the spindle fibers, which signals the cells to continue through mitosis. When researchers analyzed the levels of AURKA protein in different types of cancer cells, they found that cancer cells expressing high levels of AURKA protein had more tripolar divisions when treated with paclitaxel, than did cancer cells expressing low levels of AURKA protein.

Research to find a cure for cancer has gone on for decades and millions of people die each year from this often deadly disease. Here is recent data on the number of Cancer Deaths per 100,000 for a one-year timeframe for each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia.

Many human cancers result when a normal gene mutates and leads to uncontrolled growth (a tumor). Genes that cause cancer when they mutate are called oncogenes. Chemotherapy is effective against many tumors because it targets rapidly dividing cells and kills them. Unfortunately, chemotherapy has many side effects, such as hair loss or nausea, because it also kills many of our normal cells that are rapidly dividing, such as those in the hair follicles or stomach lining.Many scientists and large pharmaceutical companies are excited about the prospects of exploiting the RNAi pathway to selectively inhibit oncogenes in lifethreatening tumors. Explain in very general terms how gene-silencing therapy might work to treat cancer and why this type of therapy would have fewer side effects than chemotherapy.

00:01 Okay, so for this one, there's a lot of words.
00:05 So i just am going to focus on the data here, knowing that we need to identify the independent and dependent variables.
00:15 So really, we just need to understand what the experiment is.
00:20 The stuff in the beginning isn't really crucial.
00:24 We just need to understand that we're giving patients a drug, which is affecting cells.
00:29 And these cells are then becoming more susceptible to chemotherapy...
