(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The way in which given treatment would be expected to stimulate or inhibit apoptosis.

Introduction: The given situation is “Cells are treated with a small molecule called pifithrin-a, which was originally isolated for its ability to reversibly block p53-dependent transcriptional activation”.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To explain: The way in which given treatment would be expected to stimulate or inhibit apoptosis.

Introduction: The given situation is “Exposing cells to recombinant TRAIL protein, a ligand for the tumor necrosis factor family of receptors”.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To explain: The way in which the given treatment would be expected to stimulate or inhibit apoptosis.

"One of the symmetry breaking events in mouse gastrulation requires the amplification of Nodal on the side of the embryo opposite to the Anterior Visceral Endoderm (AVE). Describe one way by which Nodal gets amplified in this region." My understanding of this is that there are a few ways nodal is amplified though I'm not sure if this is specifically occurs on the opposite side of the AVE.  1. pronodal cleaved by protease -> active nodal 2. Nodal -> BMP4 -> Wnt-> nodal 3. Nodal-> Nodal, Fox1 binding site  4. BMP4 on outside-> nodal  Are all of these occuring opposite to AVE?
