Cancer cell metabolism: special Reference to Lactate PathwayAADYARAJPANDEY1
Normal Cell Metabolism:
Cellular respiration describes the series of steps that cells use to break down sugar and other chemicals to get the energy we need to function.
Energy is stored in the bonds of glucose and when glucose is broken down, much of that energy is released.
Cell utilize energy in the form of ATP.
The first step of respiration is called glycolysis. In a series of steps, glycolysis breaks glucose into two smaller molecules - a chemical called pyruvate. A small amount of ATP is formed during this process.
Most healthy cells continue the breakdown in a second process, called the Kreb's cycle. The Kreb's cycle allows cells to “burn” the pyruvates made in glycolysis to get more ATP.
The last step in the breakdown of glucose is called oxidative phosphorylation (Ox-Phos).
It takes place in specialized cell structures called mitochondria. This process produces a large amount of ATP. Importantly, cells need oxygen to complete oxidative phosphorylation.
If a cell completes only glycolysis, only 2 molecules of ATP are made per glucose. However, if the cell completes the entire respiration process (glycolysis - Kreb's - oxidative phosphorylation), about 36 molecules of ATP are created, giving it much more energy to use.
IN CANCER CELL:
Unlike healthy cells that "burn" the entire molecule of sugar to capture a large amount of energy as ATP, cancer cells are wasteful.
Cancer cells only partially break down sugar molecules. They overuse the first step of respiration, glycolysis. They frequently do not complete the second step, oxidative phosphorylation.
This results in only 2 molecules of ATP per each glucose molecule instead of the 36 or so ATPs healthy cells gain. As a result, cancer cells need to use a lot more sugar molecules to get enough energy to survive.

introduction to WARBERG PHENOMENA:
WARBURG EFFECT Usually, cancer cells are highly glycolytic (glucose addiction) and take up more glucose than do normal cells from outside.
Otto Heinrich Warburg (; 8 October 1883 – 1 August 1970) In 1931 was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology for his "discovery of the nature and mode of action of the respiratory enzyme.
WARNBURG EFFECT : cancer cells under aerobic (well-oxygenated) conditions to metabolize glucose to lactate (aerobic glycolysis) is known as the Warburg effect. Warburg made the observation that tumor slices consume glucose and secrete lactate at a higher rate than normal tissues.
Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.
Introduction:
RNA interference (RNAi) or Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing (PTGS) is an important biological process for modulating eukaryotic gene expression.
It is highly conserved process of posttranscriptional gene silencing by which double stranded RNA (dsRNA) causes sequence-specific degradation of mRNA sequences.
dsRNA-induced gene silencing (RNAi) is reported in a wide range of eukaryotes ranging from worms, insects, mammals and plants.
This process mediates resistance to both endogenous parasitic and exogenous pathogenic nucleic acids, and regulates the expression of protein-coding genes.
What are small ncRNAs?
micro RNA (miRNA)
short interfering RNA (siRNA)
Properties of small non-coding RNA:
Involved in silencing mRNA transcripts.
Called “small” because they are usually only about 21-24 nucleotides long.
Synthesized by first cutting up longer precursor sequences (like the 61nt one that Lee discovered).
Silence an mRNA by base pairing with some sequence on the mRNA.
Discovery of siRNA?
The first small RNA:
In 1993 Rosalind Lee (Victor Ambros lab) was studying a non- coding gene in C. elegans, lin-4, that was involved in silencing of another gene, lin-14, at the appropriate time in the
development of the worm C. elegans.
Two small transcripts of lin-4 (22nt and 61nt) were found to be complementary to a sequence in the 3' UTR of lin-14.
Because lin-4 encoded no protein, she deduced that it must be these transcripts that are causing the silencing by RNA-RNA interactions.
Types of RNAi ( non coding RNA)
MiRNA
Length (23-25 nt)
Trans acting
Binds with target MRNA in mismatch
Translation inhibition
Si RNA
Length 21 nt.
Cis acting
Bind with target Mrna in perfect complementary sequence
Piwi-RNA
Length ; 25 to 36 nt.
Expressed in Germ Cells
Regulates trnasposomes activity
MECHANISM OF RNAI:
First the double-stranded RNA teams up with a protein complex named Dicer, which cuts the long RNA into short pieces.
Then another protein complex called RISC (RNA-induced silencing complex) discards one of the two RNA strands.
The RISC-docked, single-stranded RNA then pairs with the homologous mRNA and destroys it.
THE RISC COMPLEX:
RISC is large(>500kD) RNA multi- protein Binding complex which triggers MRNA degradation in response to MRNA
Unwinding of double stranded Si RNA by ATP independent Helicase
Active component of RISC is Ago proteins( ENDONUCLEASE) which cleave target MRNA.
DICER: endonuclease (RNase Family III)
Argonaute: Central Component of the RNA-Induced Silencing Complex (RISC)
One strand of the dsRNA produced by Dicer is retained in the RISC complex in association with Argonaute
ARGONAUTE PROTEIN :
1.PAZ(PIWI/Argonaute/ Zwille)- Recognition of target MRNA
2.PIWI (p-element induced wimpy Testis)- breaks Phosphodiester bond of mRNA.)RNAse H activity.
MiRNA:
The Double-stranded RNAs are naturally produced in eukaryotic cells during development, and they have a key role in regulating gene expression .

12. Composition of ceramics :
1. Feldspar :
-when mixed with metal oxides and fired, it forms a
glass phase that is able to soften and flow slightly
-This softening of glass allows porcelain particles to
coalesce together. This is called sinteringsintering
-. Seen in concentration of 75-85 %.
1. Kaolin / clay :
-it acts as the binder.
-When mixed with water , it forms a sticky mass which
allows unfired porcelain to be easily worked and
molded.
13. -On heating it reacts with feldspar and gives
rigidity.
-Its white in color and reduces
translucency .so its added only in
concentration of 4-5 %.
3. Quartz :
-It imparts more strength, firmness and
translucency.
-It gives stability of mass during heating by
providing a frame work.13-14%
14. • GLAZES:
It decreases pores on the surface of fired porcelain.
• This increases strength by decreasing the crack
propagation.
if glaze is removed by grinding, the transverse strength
is half of glazed porcelain.
1. self glazing :
-External glaze layer is not applied here.
-the completed restorations is subjected to glazing here.
2.Add on glazes:
-external glaze layer is applied here.
-They are uncolored glasses whose fusing temperature is
lowered by the addition of glass modifiers.
-Disadvantages : low chemical durability, difficulty to
apply evenly, difficult to get exact surface characteristics.
15. • 6.Colouring agents :
-These coloring pigments are produced by
fusing metallic oxides together with fine glass
and feldspar -Ex : iron / nickel oxides- brown ,
copper oxides-green, titanium oxide –yellowish
brown, cobalt oxide – blue.
7.Opacifying agents:

4.non crystalline fused silica
17. 10.Glass modifiers :
- Potassium oxide , Sodium oxide , Calcium
oxide are used as glass modifiers
- they act as fluxes by lowering the softening
temperature of a glass
11. Intermediate oxides :
-Glass modifiers reduces the viscousity of
porcelain .
-It needs a high viscosity as well as low firing
temperature. This is done by the addition of AL 2
O3 and B2O3 .

20. FABRICATION OF CERAMIC RESTORATIONFABRICATION OF CERAMIC RESTORATION
Condensation of porcelainCondensation of porcelain :
• POWDER + LIQUID BINDERPOWDER + LIQUID BINDER→ CONDENSATION→ CONDENSATION
• The process of packing the powder particles together and
removing the liquid binder is known as condensation.
• The main objective of building porcelain is to achieve maximum
packing density of the powder so as to reduce porosity and
shrinkage during firing.
Types of binder :Types of binder :
1.distilled water : most popular binder
• 2.propylene glycol: used in alumina core build up
• 3.alcohol or formaldehyde based liquids:for core build up
21. Building up of porcelain :Building up of porcelain :
1.The powder is mixed on a glass slab
2.Mix should not be over stirred to avoid air bubbles
3.High room temperature and dry atmosphere avoided as
powder can dry out rapidly due to which air spaces are
created in powder bed.
Methods of condensation :Methods of condensation :
1.vibration ; mild vibrations are used to pack wet powder
.vibra brush is used
2.spatulation : small spatula is used to apply and smoothen
the wet porcelain.this brings excess water to surface.
3.Dry brush technique : dry powder is placed with a
brush.water is drawn towards the dry powder and wet
particles are pulled together
4.ultrasonic: mild vibrations given electrically
22. • FACTORS DETERMINING EFFICIENCY OFFACTORS DETERMINING EFFICIENCY OF
CONDENSATION:CONDENSATION:
1. SIZE OF THE POWDER PARTICLES:
If only one sized particles are used – 45% voids
two sized particles _ 25% voids
three sized particles_ 22% voids
system that use 3 sized particles is called Gap grading
system
2.SHAPE OF THE POWDER PARTICLES
Round particles give better packing than angular
particles.
23. Firing of dental porcelain:
-During firing, the glass particles soften at their
contact areas and fuse together. this is referred to
as sintering.
-Temperature is raised gradually to the desired
one, to allow the air and gas bubbles to escape via
the grain boundaries. The powder becomes dense
and shrinks.
24. CHANGES DURING FIRINGCHANGES DURING FIRING
1-Loss of water which was added to the powder. free and
combined water is lost till a temperature of 480 degree
2-With further rise in temperature, particles starts fusing
together by a process called sintering.
3-Firing shrinkage – decrease in volume
32% for low fusing porcelain
28% for high fusing porcelain
4-Glazing occurs
at temperatures of 965 – 10650
c
25. Stages of firing :Stages of firing :
1.Low bisque :
-The surface of porcelain is porous.
- Porcelain has started to soften .
-Shrinkage will be minimal and fired body is extremely
weak and friable.
-Lacks translucency and glaze.
2.Medium bisque :
-The surface will be slightly porous
- The flow of glass grains will have increased.
-Definite shrinkage would have happened.
-Lacks translucency and glaze.
3.High bisque :
-Porcelain has smooth surface with a shine
-Shrinkage is complete.
26. • FIRING TECHNIQUESFIRING TECHNIQUES
- Temperature method
- Temperature time method
• MEDIAS FOR FIRINGMEDIAS FOR FIRING
• AIR
• VACCUM
• DIFFUSABLE GAS
27. AIR FIRINGAIR FIRING
- All porcelain mixes have some amount of porosity in
them. So once in air furnace, the furnace atmosphere
occupies the voids.
- More chance of porosity
VACCUM FIRINGVACCUM FIRING
- Reduces porosity
- Vaccum removes air from the interstitial spaces
before surface sealing occurs.
- Vaccum is then removed when porcelain is in hot
zone of furnace, and then when the air gets in, it
exerts a compressive effect on the surface, which
compresses the internal voids to 1/ 10 th of its original
size.
28. DIFFUSIBLE GAS FIRINGDIFFUSIBLE GAS FIRING
• Air is driven out of porcelain powder and diffusible
gasses like helium , hydrogen are used
• With these gases interstitial spaces donot enlarge under
increasing temperature , but decrease in size or
disappear.
• This is beacause the gases diffuse outwards through the
porcelain or actually dissolve in the porcelain.
29. Glazing :Glazing :
-glazing seals the open pores on the surface
-gives polish and smoothness to the surface
overglazeoverglaze ::external glaze layer has to be applied. These
are ceramic powders containing more amount of glass
modifiers thus lowering fusion temperature.
self glazeself glaze : All the constituents on the surface are melted
to form a molten mass of about 25 µm thickness.
Procedure :Procedure :
Introduce into muffle entrance for 1 minute. Place on firing
platform at 800c for 2 minutes. Hold for 940c for 2 minutes
and air fire.

43. 1. PORCELAIN JACKET CROWNS:1. PORCELAIN JACKET CROWNS:
- they were very brittle and fractured easily.
-They were called as half moon fractures.
-they also showed poor marginal adaptation.
Processing :
- PJC are made using platinum foil technique
-a platinum foil is first adapted to the dye. The foil
acts as a matrix and supports the porcelain during
firing.

45. ALUMINOUS PORCELAIN JACKETALUMINOUS PORCELAIN JACKET
CROWN ( HI – CERAM )CROWN ( HI – CERAM )
• -so McLean and Hughes in1965, introduced porcelain
jacket crown with aluminous core to improve the strength
of traditional PJC.
• -Increased content of alumina ( 40-50%) in the core
strengthened the porcelain by interruption of crack
propagation.
46. --Factors affecting strength & opacity ofFactors affecting strength & opacity of
aluminous porcelain:aluminous porcelain:
1.1. Finer the grain size, greater the strength.
2.2.coarse grains are less opaque.
-so there is a compromise between strength and
esthetics.
-so average grain size to be 25mm which allows
light transmission of atleast 15%
47. 3.3.size of glass powder is less than 40 mm as this
sized powder softens and flows more easily
around alumina grains producing high sintered
densities.
4.4.Rounded grains are preferred over angular
ones, since angular ones interfere with the flow of
glass phase producing flaws around the grains and
reducing the strength.
48. 5.5.Alumina concentration should be around 40-50%
by weight . Concentration higher than this would
prevent complete flow and wetting by glass matrix.

49. UsesUses ::
-- Due to reduced translucency , aluminous
porcelain is limited to forming refractory framework
capable of supporting weaker more translucent
dentin and enamel porcelains
- Only these two types of all ceramic restorations
are called porcelain jacket crowns.
-The rest of them were called ceramic jacket
crowns or CJSCJS or glass ceramic crowns.

57. 1.A metal stable glass is first formed
after casting.
2. during subsequent heat treatment controlled
crystallization occurs with nucleation and
growth of internal crystals.
3. this conversion process of a glass to a partially
crystalline glass is called ceramming.ceramming.
Thus a glass ceramic is a multiphase solid
containing residual glass phase with a finely
dispersed crystalline phase
- It decreasing the crack propagation .

• It is composed of Sio2, K2o,Mgo, Mgf2
• Alo2, Zro2.added for durability
• Flourescing agent for esthetics
• Flouride acts as a nucleating agent and improve
fluidity of molten glass.
• After ceramming material is 55% crystalline
59. Fabrication :
-wax pattern made

64. From 1988, machined ceramics came into
being. there are 2 major systems for the
fabrication of this technique
1. Analogous systems:
-Copy milling / grinding technique
-Erosive techniques
2.digital systems:
-cad-cam technology
65. COPY MILLING TECHNIQUE :
CELAY,CEROMATIC II,
-copy milling uses a replica like wax, plastic, stone or
metal of the desired form as a guide for a milling machine.
the surface of the replica is traced by turning the pattern
and touching the patterns surface with a finger stylus. Thus
the block of appropriate size is copy milled from the
ceramic block.
-The cavity receiving the restoration should be free ofThe cavity receiving the restoration should be free of
any undercutsany undercuts..
-The pro-inlay is scanned with a scanning device and a
coarse diamond coated disc (124mm grain size)
66. simultaneously roughens out the shape of the
restoration. A fine white powder is applied to the
inlay and the scanning is done again using a
smooth disc and fissured and tapered burs.
- matching fine diamond discs and burs (60-70 mm
thick) refine the shape of the gross ceramic
restoration.
Once the white powder is completely taken off, the
milling is considered to be complete. Stains and
glazes may be added before the restoration is
etched and silanised. Copy milling takes aboutCopy milling takes about
20-30 minutes20-30 minutes..
