00:07 All right, here we are, morning, it was harder today,

00:11 it good enough? It felt like I was it was dark, it's

00:17 get worse, just let you it's gonna get worse always towards december

00:22 , especially if you're not a morning , anyone here, not a morning

00:26 , I'm not a morning person. I didn't have to teach this

00:29 I wouldn't get up till like So today, what we're gonna

00:33 we have three things we're gonna Uh we're gonna talk about cell

00:36 Um and the good news with when talk about cell signaling, what we're

00:40 is we're keeping it very general, basic. Alright, we're not gonna

00:44 asking specific pathways or anything like so that's good news. Second thing

00:49 gonna talk about is we're gonna look how cells are connected to each

00:52 So we're gonna look at these different of connections and the last thing we're

00:55 is we're gonna do look at cell , Right? So that word,

01:01 replication should kind of key in on , is like, oh, that's

01:04 of the things that living things do replicate themselves. So, we're gonna

01:08 at that cell cycle and ask that , what are the steps? You've

01:11 already seen this stuff before. I that part, because that's just

01:16 And when I say that word, of you cringe somebody go,

01:19 I've heard of that. All and so today it shouldn't be particularly

01:23 . And when I looked at like, well, get out

01:25 but once I say that that means going like right to the very last

01:28 . So, you know, if start telling stories, just say shut

01:31 . Alright, that's easy. So cell signaling is simply the way

01:35 cells talk to each other. If each cell is a compartment where

01:39 chemical reactions are taking place and I something that I need to make another

01:44 do I need to send a signal that cell? All right. And

01:48 I've got cells that are nearby you know? So they're nearby.

01:52 might even be connected to me. then we have cells that are very

01:55 away that I need to talk Alright, So there are different mechanisms

01:59 are being used to allow this to . We have different names for those

02:03 . So, the large picture the grand picture of cell signaling is

02:07 of just summarized up here, There are lots of different ways that

02:10 do this. It all depends on proximity, it depends on how fast

02:15 need the speed to be. And , what is your intended target.

02:19 , that's how we decide or which is going to be used.

02:23 Typically, what we're going to see that most stuff like 95, maybe

02:29 percent of the signal that occurs in body is going to be through chemical

02:33 . Alright. But then when we talking about neurons, we're gonna start

02:36 about electrical stuff. But understand that we're talking about electrical signaling, electrical

02:42 as referred here refers to two cells contact with each other. That allow

02:49 uh ions to pass between. So other words, the electrical signal passes

02:54 cell to cell to cell to When we talk about neurons, we're

02:57 to be talking about cells that use pathways to send signals along their

03:04 But ultimately they signal via chemical Alright, So there's a distinction here

03:11 becomes very confused a little bit Alright, So electricals like what your

03:17 does, that would be kind of type of electrical signaling. What neurons

03:21 is they use electricity to create chemical . Alright, So with that in

03:28 let's kind of walk through them. going to the grocery store made a

03:30 giant list. So you wouldn't forget stuff that you do. No,

03:35 one. Okay. One person is their hands thank you. I'm not

03:39 only person who forgets stuff. I literally all day long I said I

03:43 I have something to do today and have something to do today. And

03:45 at the very end of the right before I went to bed,

03:47 like damn it. It was that thing that on the list and I

03:50 not remember. All right. I had to write it down,

03:54 had to tell myself what to do that's what the Quran signaling is now

03:59 means I am releasing some sort of out into the surrounding environment. And

04:05 that chemical then comes and binds back a receptor on that same cell to

04:09 that sell something to what to do you're sitting there. Why are they

04:13 the time and the effort? part of it is because the Quran

04:16 maybe coupled with other types of But really what you have to think

04:20 is that when you're looking at a , you don't have one thing going

04:24 inside that cell, right? You hundreds of things going on inside that

04:28 . So you may be releasing a to tell another pathway to turn

04:34 That is not part of the original that you're dealing with over here.

04:38 , so, it's just a way self communicate. Alright, so this

04:44 and this is gonna be true for single solitary one. In order for

04:48 signaling to work, the cell that receiving, the signal has to have

04:52 appropriate receptor. Alright, if you have the right receptor, you're not

04:56 to respond. I can send out right message all day long. But

05:00 you don't have the right receptor, just like don't know what it

05:04 Okay, so very, very easy the chemical signal goes out into the

05:10 interstitial fluid acts on a receptor on same cell released. It causes change

05:16 that cell that release the chemical Self talking. The next type is

05:24 we refer to as peregrine. Peregrine has. I'm just making sure

05:30 okay, peregrine refers to cells that or nearby. Okay, so here

05:37 , what I'm doing is, here's cell releasing, it's releasing a chemical

05:41 . The cells in the surrounding neighborhood gonna be responding to that chemical

05:46 Again, the key thing being that cell has to have the right

05:51 So, you can see in this cartoon up here at the top we

05:54 cells that don't have the right we have cells that do have the

05:56 receptor is the one that respond are yellow ones, not the pink ones

06:00 this particular picture. So, you're with nearby. Now, whenever you're

06:06 in general, any sort of chemical goes out into the interstitial fluid has

06:10 very, very small or short half , meaning you don't want that signal

06:14 be around to accidentally turn on something place in a in a in an

06:19 way. So, when we're talking peregrine, the distance for to which

06:25 that signal travels is very, very . Right? So, you can

06:29 if this is the cell right here the signal, this might be as

06:33 away as the signal gets. it's very nearby. Not very far

06:38 all. All right now, when talk about neurons, we're gonna be

06:43 about synapses and synapses. Just a form of peregrine signaling. I'm targeting

06:49 specific cell I wanted to to talk . You can see I have the

06:54 here but the interaction is nearby. very very close. They're not touching

06:58 other, they're very close to one . So synaptic signaling is a type

07:02 perricone signaling. Now, perricone signal to be differentiated from a type of

07:09 . That's a lot kind of like it's called Jacks to uh sorry,

07:16 stat signaling. All right now, difference between Para Quran and Quran is

07:23 Quran are cells that are nearby. a Quran are cells that are touching

07:28 other. Okay now, how are touching each other? Well, they

07:32 be touching each other specifically through direct . So here we can see a

07:38 . There's the ligand. The word . If I haven't said it to

07:42 again, just simply means the molecule binds to a receptor. It's a

07:47 term. Alright. It's like when say go to restaurants, I want

07:51 coke and then they ask you what and then you tell them like a

07:55 or dr pepper. Okay. I that doesn't fall that funny down

08:01 but if you're from the Northeast, like what you ordered a coke and

08:05 ask for dr pepper because they call soda or pop. Alright,

08:11 so here direct context. Just I'm going to have the two cells

08:16 each other. They're touching each other they have the appropriate receptor and

08:21 Right, So the immune system uses all the time. It's a process

08:25 referred to as cell to cell So these cells are basically moving around

08:30 the body and they come up and each other and if they have the

08:33 combination right receptor, right leg in one cell tells the one with the

08:38 . Hey, you need to be this and then they separate the one

08:40 the receptor goes off and does what needs to do. Another type is

08:46 cells that have gap junctions. Gap are simply a series of proteins that

08:51 arranged in such a way that you a gap or a passageway between two

08:56 . So what happens is is that chemical inside this cell isn't being

09:01 it's actually being passed from cell to . Now this is can be a

09:06 of chemical signaling. But if its , those ions moving from cell to

09:11 become electrical signaling because you have current from cell to cell. Alright,

09:17 gap junctions play that kind of unique . Now the type of protein is

09:22 a connection and they're roughly 20 types they can get kind of complicated and

09:27 but just think gap junction two cells to each other by a series of

09:33 directly so that materials can pass between and those two cells work together to

09:38 whatever job through that signaling process. then the one that I think is

09:46 interesting. What if you ever stay biology, this is the stuff that

09:50 spend all your time talking about is distance signaling. What we sometimes refer

09:55 as endocrine signaling. An endocrine signaling need that caffeine, endocrine signaling.

10:05 you have. You have your cell its chemical. That chemical goes from

10:08 interstitial fluid out of the bloodstream and the blood stream and then starts traveling

10:13 the body Now because of the mechanisms chemistry, physics and biology which we're

10:18 going to go into it kind of back and forth between the blood,

10:21 interstitial fluid and it kind of just around again. It has a half

10:25 so it can't stick around very But the idea is that eventually get

10:29 some distance, it's very far The cartoon can't make it very far

10:32 , but just imagine this is your , this is your new your

10:36 right? And so what's happening now that those chemicals will go out in

10:39 interstitial fluid. If there happen to cells with receptors then they will activate

10:44 receptors. And if there's cells that have the receptors then they'll add that

10:49 either be destroyed or will find its back in the blood and keep traveling

10:52 through the body until its half life done. Alright. So here,

10:59 we're seeing is a way for your to communicate very long distances to cause

11:07 activities. Now when we think about things we call them hormones, you

11:12 have heard of hormones, right? mean that's been your entire life for

11:15 the last six years, hormones write you do. Everything that goes on

11:20 your life is based on the hormone . That's right. This is the

11:29 system. What's interesting is it's not the endocrine system. Anyone here ever

11:35 melatonin? Yeah, I love that right? Melatonin is a chemical release

11:42 the brain to act on cells to the clock rhythms of your body.

11:48 . And there's a natural release of that comes and goes in waves,

11:54 of endocrine signaling. Alright, so nervous system and the endocrine system use

12:02 type of signaling to control how your works. Alright, here's an easy

12:06 if you ever, have you ever thirsty? Alright, well next time

12:12 water. Alright. What? That thirst is based your body saying I

12:18 dehydrated, I'm lacking the water in body. My solute concentrations have risen

12:24 the parlance of physiology, your osmolarity increased and that signal goes back up

12:31 the brain. The brain says hey need to fix this problem and it

12:37 releasing chemicals like valdosta rone. Anti hormone and a couple of others and

12:44 it does basically says, tells you hey I'm thirsty. So what do

12:49 do when you're thirsty? Well hopefully drink water me. I grew up

12:54 the age of soda. So I out and give me a big gulp

12:57 I drink that which has more salt it and it makes me even

13:01 Alright, so but yeah, that's idea is you drinking water, you

13:06 bring yourself back into homo static Now these chemicals are gonna vary in

13:12 and they're gonna vary in structure and will learn about more of these or

13:16 specific ones in A and P. . But if we come along and

13:21 say, oh here's one, you when we talk about the anterior pituitary

13:24 something like that? You'll you'll see talk about. Alright. But generally

13:28 we do endocrinology in A and To just to save you guys the

13:36 . All right, so those are types of signaling. How do we

13:39 about signaling? Alright, well we two different types of signaling mechanisms.

13:45 have one that's called metabolic tropic and that's called ion a tropic. When

13:50 hear the word meta bow tropic, do you think of with that first

13:54 the word meta bow metabolism. so there's something that's metabolic that's taking

14:01 when you hear the word ion a . What do you what you hear

14:04 that prefix? Ion oh, So it has something to do with

14:09 . Alright. This latter half the part doesn't refer to a drink,

14:14 ? With little umbrella in it. refers to something in response to it

14:19 causes an effect. Alright, so tropic means I'm creating a metabolic effect

14:25 the cell. Ion. A tropic I'm creating an ionic effect in the

14:30 . And so what we see in meta tropic receptor, which can be

14:35 of these different types that we just at or in an ion a

14:38 it could be in any the types we just looked at, any type

14:40 the signaling. But what happens here that that chemical signal binds to some

14:45 of receptor. So we have an signal acting on a membrane bound receptor

14:52 then causes some sort of inside And so the first step is simply

14:59 binding that receptor. When I bind receptor, the molecule that's the receptor

15:04 shape and it creates a cascade, like knocking over a domino in a

15:09 string of dominoes and a whole bunch other stuff is taking place. And

15:14 all those whole but other stuff refers a process called trans direction. Now

15:20 english, what trans junction simply I'm turning an outside signal signal into

15:24 inside signal, I'm changing one thing something else. So here it's inside

15:28 outside or sorry, Outside inside excuse , I got those backwards.

15:32 so I've got an outside signal that into an inside signal and then that

15:39 signal through a series of path or series of molecules. In other words

15:44 the dominoes begin to fall ill eventually some sort of unique response inside that

15:51 . Okay. And again we don't what that is right now. But

15:54 you think about whenever a hormone binds whenever a chemical signal binds it's going

15:59 change the activity of what's going Now. I'm gonna use a weird

16:02 . I've never used this example but just want to give you an example

16:06 our immune system. We have a . Cell. We have lots of

16:11 types of T cells. We have T. Helper cell. What do

16:15 think A helper cell does? It ? And then we have a side

16:18 toxic T. Cell. What do think a side of toxic cell

16:22 It kills cells. So the side toxic cell is already included in on

16:27 things but it doesn't know what to . And so what happens is that

16:34 helped her sell gets alerted when there's bad in your body and it's like

16:39 got to tell someone to go do about this. Who do you think

16:42 talks to side intoxicant? It binds it and it turns on that cell

16:49 takes an outside signal from here to and turns it into an inside signal

16:54 get this one all active and hot bothered for whatever it is that's infecting

16:59 body so that it can go hunt down and kill it. That's an

17:03 of a cellular response. Okay, just one. I mean we could

17:09 this all day with every part of body. Okay. But the idea

17:14 is I'm taking an outside signal binds a receptor that receptor activates something that

17:21 that's trans deduction. And then at end of all those pathways, those

17:27 I create a response that's unique to particular pathway. So what has to

17:34 in one of these things is that that's there in that pathway? That

17:39 pathway has to already be present in cell. Some of you were here

17:46 little early and the room was right? And what did I do

17:52 make it light? I pushed a over there. Right? So everything

17:57 make the room light was already here the room. All I had to

18:03 was push the button and that caused lights to come up. Lights were

18:07 there. The wiring was already It just needed something to transducer that

18:14 to make it happen. And that's happening in a meta tropic pathway.

18:19 . Typically what you'll see in a trophic pathway is a whole bunch of

18:23 molecules that need to be turned Right? So again, this is

18:28 . So the idea here, as can see here's my ligand, here's

18:31 receptor, my ligaments bound to the and it activates a molecule that's already

18:36 . That little p is a phosphor . Usually when you see phosphor relation

18:40 a molecule refers to changing it from inactive state to an active state imparted

18:46 . Alright, but you can see one turned got turned on which turned

18:49 that one which turned on, that which turned on, that one which

18:52 on eventually the protein at the very , which actually makes us the change

18:57 the cell. Now when I was here since I was like why are

19:01 wasting my time with all those Why can't I just turn on?

19:04 one thing? And the answer is we're looking at one pathway of several

19:11 . So somewhere along the line, one I'm just making it up,

19:14 be turning on a different protein that kind of the same thing that turns

19:18 a target over here and this one here turns another pathway on And maybe

19:22 one up here turns on three So when you're activating at the

19:28 you're not just knocking over one row dominoes, you're activating multiple rows of

19:35 and you're getting multiple effects and it's combined effect, which is what that

19:40 response is, is all those different being turned on. Okay, so

19:48 response refers to what happens at the of these cascades, that's what it

19:54 just a trans direction cascade is the that we use? Come on,

20:04 we go, finally you're gonna So the temptation here is to memorize

20:13 thing and I don't want you to it. What I want you to

20:16 here. I want you to understand idea concept, I'm a dad so

20:23 gonna use this example which lands perfectly me and as a child it hopefully

20:29 land perfectly for you. You go the room, you turn on the

20:33 and then you leave the room. are you supposed to do? Turn

20:37 off, Quit wasting my electricity. ever heard that 1? I do

20:43 all the time. Kids walk into bathroom, leave the light on,

20:48 into the kitchen, leave the light . You know you guys raised in

20:52 barn right for everything that gets turned in a signaling cascade. Remember what

20:59 done is I've turned on something and long as it's turned on it will

21:05 doing what it was designed to You don't want things turned on all

21:11 time. I imagine your house where is turned on all the time.

21:16 mean sure refrigerators, whatever. But the tv being turned on, imagine

21:22 ipod, you know really your phone on all the time. The music

21:27 stops. Imagine you're just everything. lights always being turned on, middle

21:32 the night, everything being turned Would that disrupt your home?

21:38 if you have a pet, do think you'd be happy with you?

21:42 are on all the time. Mhm . So, in our bodies,

21:48 we have are mechanisms for everything that's turned on. Everything is being turned

21:54 . So, when you think of pathways imagine not only am I turning

21:59 on, but there's something else that's it off and that's what this is

22:04 to show you. It's saying, here is a inactive protein, here's

22:09 active protein. There's something that turns on and now here's something that turns

22:15 off. And so there's these processes allow you this, what we refer

22:19 as molecular switches that turn everything back . So everything you turn on gets

22:23 off. Everything that you turned off turned back on. So there's all

22:29 things going on all the time. this is just an example of one

22:35 those ion a tropic receptors we said with ions. Yeah, it makes

22:46 easy once you start just attaching what words mean to what they are

22:54 Yeah. The first time I realized are that simple. It was like

23:00 I wasted all that time trying to things. No, they're telling

23:05 That's your own cheat sheet. The of things. Alright here notice what

23:11 have is we have a receptor that's actual channel. Alright, so little

23:16 hexagon things. Those are our All right. So when the ligand

23:23 to this channel, it serves as key. And when we use that

23:27 , we open the channel and that the ions to flow through. Now

23:32 ions are gonna flow based on the of diffusion that we talked about right

23:37 an area of high concentration to an of low concentration. So if we

23:41 a lot of sodium out here and is a sodium channel, then

23:45 when this channel opens up, sodium gonna go rushing into the cell and

23:49 something goes rest again in the it carries with it, its positive

23:52 . And so the inside of the becomes more positive than it was

23:57 That's a current. That's an electrical or an eye on a tropic

24:05 These are very short signals. It's of like when you open a door

24:08 you have the see if I can it up there. You have the

24:13 arm to force the door to right, you open it, you

24:18 go through but that door is closing behind you. And that's what this

24:23 is these types of channels are gonna for a short period of time and

24:27 they're gonna close up again, allowing to return back to a steady

24:31 And of course there's leak channels and sorts of other fun stuff that moving

24:35 back to where they go or pumps it were. But what we're using

24:41 is something to get a very very , very rapid response and this is

24:45 electrical signaling does. It creates rapid . A weird type of signaling and

24:54 is the last one. It's also ligand based signaling mechanism. But

25:00 what we're doing is we're dealing with lipid soluble substances. So in that

25:09 example, the meta tropic, we that the receptor was found up at

25:14 surface, right, It was right here. I'll just go back.

25:18 you can see and that's true for one as well. Alright. But

25:22 up here that Ligon can't penetrate through membrane membranes made of lipids. That

25:31 is water soluble so it can't go the membrane. So the reason that

25:36 have to have this pathway in the place is because we have to turn

25:39 outside signal into an inside signal. here, we have an outside

25:45 And what we're doing is we're creating internal response. But again, that

25:49 happens to be water soluble when we're with nuclear receptors. Come on

25:56 Stupid thing. There we go. we're dealing with nuclear receptors are molecule

26:04 lipid soluble. So in this particular they're trying to show it's a steroid

26:09 are lipids so a lipid can't stop lipid lipid, the steroids just gonna

26:15 right through the membrane and so there's need to have a receptor on the

26:19 , you can have a receptor inside cell. And so this is where

26:23 receptors come in now, what's unique nuclear receptors is you hear it in

26:27 name is like oh well they must in the nucleus. Yes that's where

26:30 work. But they can be found the cytoplasm or the side is all

26:35 can be found in the nucleus when unbound. So they kind of exist

26:39 just inside the cell. But when steroid, when that lipid soluble signaling

26:44 comes along it binds to it and that receptor moves to the nucleus and

26:51 finds another one just like it and what is called a dime er dime

26:56 means just to of all right. then when they come together then they

27:01 as a unique type of molecule they what is called a transcription factor.

27:07 transcription factors promote the production of new expression. Alright, so I'm gonna

27:15 the example again here of turning on lights. So if I was signaling

27:20 this mechanism to turn on the what would have to happen is is

27:25 of pushing a button the lights would on. What I'm doing is I'm

27:28 making the button and the wires and lights and I'm putting them all into

27:32 before anything can happen. So which you think would be faster turning on

27:37 lights with a button or making everything on the lights right? so this

27:43 of mechanism is now very slow, speaking, Alright, relative to the

27:51 tropic. But remember with meta tropic turning things on and I'm turning things

27:55 back off again. So I'm getting very quick response but I'm getting a

27:58 short lived response here. It takes while for me to make things but

28:03 those things are going to be stuck or going to stay around for a

28:07 time and so I have a long response. So these types of signaling

28:13 result in maybe not an immediate response it, but you get something that's

28:18 to be long lasting. So if use this type of mechanism when you

28:23 something to stick around for a Alright, so with nuclear receptors,

28:30 signaling molecule is lipid soluble, they to receptor that acts as a transcription

28:37 . I get new gene expression, takes longer to get my response but

28:42 sticks around for a longer period of . So those are very generic ways

28:48 look at how cells talk to each and it can be kind of

28:55 So I'm going to stop here. there any questions about what we just

28:59 through? Yeah, ligand? perfectly fine. What is ligand ligand

29:08 simply a fancy word for saying molecule binds a receptor, that's all it

29:15 . Alright, so when you say the ligand. Just that means there

29:19 be a receptor for it. anything else? Yeah. Mhm.

29:31 . So remember when we talked about proteins, when we talked about the

29:35 of of transcription, this is really that is. It's basically saying look

29:40 our gene of interest over here, is where we start reading the

29:44 N. A. And so in to read that D. N.

29:46 . We have to have something there turn on the reader and that's what

29:50 transcription factors acting as. Alright, gonna confuse you now. So just

29:55 can brain dump this. Okay, factors can be activators or they can

30:02 inhibitors. So everything that we've talked here, even in those transactions cascades

30:07 be activators and inhibitors. It's just , especially when you're first being introduced

30:11 the idea to think of everything as activators. But when you move forward

30:16 your academic careers you're gonna start seeing wait a second Doctor Wayne told me

30:20 is a pathway that turns things But you're showing me a pathway that

30:23 something off because that's what they can . All right. But it's still

30:28 pathway, it's the pattern that becomes . Not the specific players until you

30:33 at a specific pathway that makes Alright. So here this is the

30:41 that allows us to create that new expression and then what we get our

30:46 proteins that term you ready, you want to write this word down.

30:49 actually two words de novo. So novo in very very de novo means

30:56 new day and novo? Right. novo. And so what we're getting

31:02 de novo protein synthesis. The de protein synthesis synthesis. I'm gonna get

31:08 words out. Right? All So the gene expression results in the

31:14 of new proteins. So, if ever see de novo, that's what

31:17 means of new and then whatever is it in this case it's protein

31:23 Alright, so new jeans new Huh? And that's what you're seeing

31:30 . Right. Oh sorry. So question is so how do you stop

31:41 basically? Right, How do you this? We don't stop it at

31:45 level. Right. Because what happens here I'm gonna make multiple copies.

31:50 I'm just gonna make a couple of and then it falls off in a

31:53 . It goes all right. But I've got a whole bunch of copies

31:56 now I have the machinery that goes and makes multiple proteins. And so

32:01 you see here is you're not stopping at this end. You have to

32:05 for the whole process to go through stuff. But yeah, this they

32:10 only stick for a short period of . Everything has a short half life

32:14 in the in the cell for the part, Yeah. Mhm. That's

32:28 the question is for these receptors, there some sort of universal signal?

32:32 you ready to write this down? right. The truth is is that

32:37 specificity of a receptor is not It's not 100%. I'm just going

32:42 give you an example. It's so androgen progesterone. These are all

32:50 They can all buy into each other's including cortisol and other steroids but they

32:57 so with different affinities. Right? if I have a lot of estrogen

33:02 might actually activate an androgen receptor. I have them present, I just

33:07 activate them very well. All This can be true across many different

33:14 of molecules. Another one. Oxytocin closely related to another molecule called

33:21 In humans we have these two. in other animals the difference between those

33:26 molecules is one amino acid. And most other animals just have a

33:32 Like I think they have like the version. Right? Our oxytocin does

33:38 thing because it has its own receptor does another thing. It has its

33:42 and other animals. They basically use one. So can oxytocin vasopressin

33:49 Can the President buy into the oxytocin but not very well. But we

33:55 of take that step back from that just pretend like it doesn't happen.

33:59 . Because it's easier to pretend that if you were studying it or if

34:03 in an upper level course and you're to deal with distinctions like with biochemistry

34:08 stuff then you'd say yeah, there's some mismatch and some crossovers but there's

34:16 such thing as a universal signal but would be like closely related molecules,

34:23 else before I move on to this , I don't think what we just

34:27 is particularly difficult in a very generic . And once you learn those patterns

34:33 you start seeing these things over and again, it's just like, oh

34:37 I can here's where I memorize, the 12 molecules I have to memorize

34:42 it makes your life easy once you how they all kind of behave the

34:46 way. Right? I love that students take this course before endocrinology because

34:54 , they feel like they have to everything. But once you learn the

34:57 they're like yeah, endocrinology is Alright, so what we're gonna do

35:01 is we're gonna go through, we're look at how these cells attached to

35:05 other because cells typically are found as . And so we're gonna look at

35:13 epithelial cells because they kind of demonstrate the different types of attachments. Even

35:18 these attachments can be found in other . Right? So these are kind

35:22 the different types of attachments and we're gonna kind of walk through them.

35:26 want you to when you're looking at things look at what makes them distinct

35:30 each other. Okay, so the is the Dismas OEM Alright, this

35:36 cells firmly together. Now I described couple of days ago, the indian

35:40 . Right? And I may have some of you. And some of

35:43 realized that your lives were a lot than those of us who grew up

35:47 pre 2000 when we could beat each up and it was right. Remember

35:51 indian burn, That's where you grab arms twist and the skin doesn't come

35:55 off. Right. The reason doesn't falling off is because of these types

35:59 attachments right here, The Dismas ohm defined as basically some sort of cytoplasmic

36:06 which is basically a whole bunch of that we're not going to describe that

36:11 proteins that are called cell adhesion Right? These are the cat hearings

36:17 example. So the cameras, cell molecule. And then so the cams

36:23 basically attached to each other on each . So if this is cell number

36:27 cell number two, they're attached like . And you have lots of these

36:30 these cams that are attached to each and they're anchored into the cell with

36:35 plaque which is a whole bunch of proteins. And then attached to the

36:40 are a whole bunch of intermediate filaments go throughout the entire cell. And

36:46 you can imagine if I pull on cell that means I'm pulling on that

36:51 which then pulls on each of those filaments which disperses the force to other

36:58 that are attached to other cells which attached to other plaques which are attached

37:03 other intermediate filaments, which go to plaques and so on and so

37:06 And so this allows you to move or disperse tension and force within the

37:14 . And that basically keeps the cells being torn apart from one another.

37:19 right. So, when you think a Desmond's own, half of that

37:23 own belongs to one sell the other belongs to the other cell.

37:28 And so the general rule is that you see Desmond Zone, think mechanical

37:33 . Now, this next picture is the Desmond zone and it's a terrible

37:38 . But I think it shows you I'm trying to get at.

37:42 Because cells are not separate like Alright. But it shows you

37:46 is that would be where the Desmond's , is those little lines represent those

37:51 filaments? All right. And if I pull say on this

37:55 that cell is pulling on that one that one, on that one.

37:58 that one on that one. That . So, it's it's dispersing that

38:01 because all those intermediate filaments are connected each of those individual cells. That

38:07 of makes sense. Yeah, the Desmond's own is like the Desmond's

38:15 When you see the word hemi, does it mean means half.

38:22 it's half a Desmond zone. Now , what we've done is we've taken

38:26 that half of a Desmond's own that cell has but instead of anchoring it

38:30 another cell that has the other half we're doing is we're anchoring the cell

38:35 the underlying connective tissue. So up , you can see here is our

38:41 cell. There is it's half of Desmond's omits hemi. And then those

38:45 those cat hearings. And they're attached structures inside the next layer of the

38:53 tissue on which that epithelial cell And so it gets anchored in in

38:58 the same way. Right? And that force is now being dispersed to

39:03 connective tissue? Excuse me. All . So what is the substrate

39:13 This is primarily collagen and other molecules what we call the E.

39:17 M. E. C. Is extra cellular matrix. Alright.

39:23 , you can just imagine a whole of fibers and I'm basically tying ropes

39:27 those fibers. And that's why the doesn't slip around or move around because

39:31 anchored to the fibers in that next . Just half a Dismas. Ohm

39:38 to the connective tissue. I love of these names at hearings junction,

39:49 hearing. What do you think of hearing? Yeah. So when I

39:54 in your shoes or in your We didn't have it here injunctions because

39:59 didn't have technology that looked so close so deep into the cells, everything

40:03 a Desmond zone. And now as kind of go in deeper and we

40:08 the technology and we're like, oh , some of our Dismas OEMs aren't

40:14 OEMs. I mean we still have of a plaque, we still have

40:19 uh cam's, these cellular adhesion But instead of having intermediate filaments,

40:25 we have here is we have micro . And so an adherence junction is

40:32 to sell cells are adhered to one , it's more rigid and so it

40:39 the cells from even moving. It creates this attachment like a Desmond's um

40:45 a little bit stronger. So what's about this different proteins involved. And

40:51 the key one here that I want to understand is that it's micro

40:55 not intermediate filaments, tight junctions basically boundaries between cells. You guys have

41:14 with ziploc bags before. Right, good ziploc bags. Not bad

41:19 Alright, so you put something in ziploc bag, you seal the ziploc

41:24 , you turn the bag over and it like they used to do in

41:26 commercials. There's always gonna be like sauce over a white carpet. You're

41:31 to prove you that Yeah, that's of what a tight junction is.

41:34 basically a series of proteins. proteins on one cell, proteins on

41:39 cell and they kind of come together they create a barrier between the two

41:44 . So you can see here, can imagine if this was the top

41:47 the cell and that was the top the cell. Actually have a better

41:50 . I can't go between the two . So I I prevent the movement

41:56 materials between cells. If I want move things from one side or

42:00 I now have to go through the . This type of movement between cells

42:05 called para celular movement. Or if talking about moving down a concentration

42:11 para cellular diffusion, I'm going through cell, it's trans cellular. So

42:18 between trans through All right, what also does, It actually creates an

42:27 between the top and the bottom of cell. So the a pickle surface

42:33 unique relative to the basil lateral. how we said that we're going to

42:39 certain molecules to one side. So actually defines the two sides. I

42:45 create kind of a barrier that says a pickle. Everything below that is

42:49 lateral. Alright, so that's gonna direct movement of materials. And I

42:55 this picture here kind of shows that little bit better see how they actually

43:00 of created this kind of fuzzy pink in the picture. What that's trying

43:05 show you is that it goes all way around the cell. So it's

43:09 taking that ziploc and basically creating a right here that goes all the way

43:14 . So you can imagine sales behind so now you have a barrier.

43:17 now we have an outside and now have an inside. This is the

43:22 pickle portion. This is the basal portion. So, the environment out

43:26 is different than the environment in here we've created a strong barrier between the

43:33 things. Can't sneak in between unless is no tight junction. Okay.

43:42 , in saying that we can have type junctions which is an oxymoron.

43:50 , What do you imagine a leaky junction being like have stuff to leak

43:55 it? Yeah, it's not a . All right. It's a bad

44:00 bag. It's one of those generic you get at a TB ward

44:03 That if you turned it upside down shook it, you'd have spaghetti all

44:06 your floor. All right. Here's gap junction. A better way to

44:13 of see it again. This is to show you that they can actually

44:17 in open and closed states. Just any sort of channel does. But

44:21 can see here here's the inside of number One. This would be inside

44:25 number two. You can see cell one has these connection molecules that creates

44:31 ring and they're aligned with the connection of the other cell. So it

44:36 a passageway between the two cells. ? So now materials can pass through

44:43 thing is is that the things that pass through have to be small enough

44:46 pass through that channel. So it's limited to what it allows to pass

44:52 . Right, Just a couple of arms, 80 p maybe small molecules

44:59 Amino acids or glucose. That's about . It's not gonna allow big

45:04 So it's just a unique way to a way for these two cells to

45:09 directly to each other. And that's that little picture up there is trying

45:13 show you. So what I wanted do just as kind of the last

45:23 with regard to the cells and how associated with one another and how they're

45:28 , this kind of shows you the cellular matrix, this term that we

45:32 E C M. Alright. And what you can see is down

45:37 below, you can see the plasma . So everything down here would be

45:41 the cell. Everything up there is the cell. Now, remember I

45:45 you guys that video, I said watch this if you feel like if

45:48 go watch it, I think the even starts with you seeing the extra

45:52 matrix and it's like all these all these materials that sit outside the

45:57 . So it's basically water and So here you can see there's the

46:01 environment, you can see the sugars then what you have is you have

46:04 these proteins and you can see how have these adhesion molecules that attach to

46:10 proteins that are outside and what you now is you kind of have this

46:15 barrier. It's not like a dense but kind of like a screen door

46:19 kind of sits above the cells that the cell to interact with it and

46:24 this unique uh structure that it can itself to protect itself from, you

46:31 , or protect itself from other things this environment. And the cells themselves

46:36 secrete this out. So it has whole bunch of collagen in there,

46:40 bunch of other fibers. Um here have we see propio that's protein glide

46:46 refers to sugar. So these are sugars which helps hold water nearby for

46:52 cells. And then you can use as a signaling mechanism. You can

46:56 use it as a way to So when you hear the word basement

47:00 , you're gonna see that this has do with the extra cellular matrix that

47:05 cells have created. So it's anchoring that structure together. That kind of

47:13 sense. So, so what we here is we have did you say

47:18 ? Yeah. Yeah. He okay. How can I make it

47:25 what the cells secrete? Yeah. all right. So the question

47:31 is it basically with the cell secretes of All right, so let's say

47:35 and you want to anchor yourself to layer of tissue. How do you

47:39 that? Well, there has to something to anchor to how do you

47:43 something that that the the underlying tissue grab onto. So, what you

47:47 is you secrete proteins and you and have proteins and what you do is

47:52 group of proteins that are sitting on outside is kind of like if this

47:56 your cell, that's kind of that and you have proteins down here and

47:59 you've anchored yourself to it and so extra cellular matrix is that anchor?

48:07 all you gotta do is ask I'll try to find a better way

48:10 say it can't promise that. I'll it better. All right.

48:16 what we've looked at is we've looked how to cells attached to other

48:20 So we got Desmond zones, we Emmy Desmond zones, we have adherence

48:26 . We have tight junctions, you how every one of them sounds like

48:29 they're supposed to do with the exception Desmond's um right gap junction, it's

48:37 easy mode. Right. Good. . Any questions about these different types

48:44 connections? Because I mean, we one more thing and then we have

48:49 more class than we have a And our next class is we're gonna

48:53 at Yeah, I know is that ? It's like what? Yeah.

48:58 lectures in a test. Six lectures a test. Six lectures in a

49:02 . Six lectures test christmas when everyone stay. Remember? Uh It'll be

49:12 since december 1st. I mean if gets an a remember master party will

49:16 it december 2nd. There we That's what I'm looking for the rest

49:24 you didn't have confidence. All Last little bit. Where are

49:34 That's what I don't know. I'm up here. This is where the

49:37 is. Alright. Cell cycle. can be very, very confusing or

49:41 can be very very easy. We're to keep it on the easy

49:44 Not on the confusing side. so this is not looking in a

49:49 and asking and I'm not gonna ask , memorize all the different stages and

49:52 able to draw them. Please don't that. All right. What I

49:55 to understand is that cells have this to replicate. Not all cells are

49:59 be replicated or some of cells are my topic. I'll just put it

50:04 way. All right. So, you look at a cell, its

50:08 basically is divided into two parts a of metabolism and growth and then a

50:13 of division. Alright, So there's period where it's just kind of doing

50:16 thing and then it's like, it's time for me to divide and

50:19 it goes into this unique thing and after division, it goes back to

50:22 uh metabolism and growth phase. And we have names for those, the

50:27 is the metabolic phase. That's the phase. Alright. So, you

50:31 imagine here, this is when cells just kind of doing what they're supposed

50:34 do and then when it's time to , that's when they go into the

50:38 topic phase. All right. So the cell division. And so when

50:42 talking about the cell cycle, what really do, and I mean,

50:46 , like I said, it can into a lot of depth here,

50:48 not going to is that there are and interesting things that are occurring through

50:53 main topic and through the interphase. , the first thing I just want

50:59 kind of point out here are the sub phases. And I would point

51:03 that the sub phases have sub phases have sub phases and we're not gonna

51:07 that far. So, this is sub phase. I want to look

51:10 the interface. All right. when you enter if you're selling you

51:15 into the interphase. If you're replicated if you're in a replicated cycle,

51:20 you're gonna do is you're gonna go the G one. So, that's

51:24 first growth phase into the That's scary that happens. I have lots of

51:34 though. Yeah, the key one is the Orange one. If that

51:39 goes then we're not recording. All . So, If you're like a

52:03 that's constantly replicating itself, making copies dividing and dividing. You're you're not

52:09 gonna pause. You're just going to of move through them. So the

52:12 phase is just called the G1, is the first growth phase. And

52:16 you're doing in there is you're doing normal cell activity. But you're also

52:21 yourself for that rep. the And so the period in which you

52:27 synthesize and get your DNA ready is the S phase. Right? That's

52:33 it's called the synthesis phase. What you're doing is you're taking

52:36 you can imagine every cell has its . N. A. It's two

52:39 . I mean, it has the its chromosomes. And then what we're

52:42 do in the S phase is we everything. And then the G.

52:47 phase is basically saying, all I've made a copy of all the

52:50 . N. A. Are we to actually go forward? All

52:54 Are we ready to enter into the phase? Because if we don't have

52:58 ready to go, then that's gonna up that division and then we're just

53:03 have to destroy the cells. All . So, the idea is that

53:07 phase is kind of preparing for the one. Moving forward. So normal

53:11 cells are maturing, they're doing their . I copy my D.

53:15 A. In the S. And what I'm doing is I'm going through

53:17 going through my checklist and making sure is ready to move forward.

53:22 So G stands for gap or growth that's just your normal activity over

53:29 You can see this thing little air on site. So some cells are

53:34 in a normal replicated cycle. All . So, if you think of

53:40 skin, for example, your skin constantly replacing itself. So there is

53:45 layer of cells that are constantly going this. Making new skin cells.

53:51 . But your neurons are not. so what happens is is during

53:55 you make all your neurons and then happens, your neurons go over here

53:59 they sit outside the cycle. And this is called the G not

54:03 So, there is no division and basically paused there or held there.

54:09 , once you're going to G you stuck there some cells can return

54:13 into the cell cycle. Some cells not. All right. So,

54:18 just think of G zero is being of the natural cycle of replication.

54:23 one S G two is part of normal cycle of replication. All

54:32 Now, I would point out there checkpoints. So, in G one

54:36 a checkpoint that says, are we to move in? Right. So

54:40 do do we go this way or we go that way? And G

54:43 ? Um it basically says do you all the stuff if you don't we're

54:49 letting you move forward. It's kind like passing a class. Right.

54:52 you pass the class? Yes. , No. You didn't. All

54:55 . You don't get to move You have to go back and make

54:58 you do that. Although I think they don't actually say they usually kill

55:02 the cell. So this goes to next thing is mitosis. Alright,

55:08 mitosis is the process of cell division it's a very, very orderly

55:15 And if you when you were in , when you took, when you

55:19 biology, most of you took biology sophomores, if you took it,

55:22 probably looked through a microscope, they give you a whole bunch of

55:25 You have to sit there and draw each of the individual stages and stuff

55:29 you're probably sitting there half the time , I'm not sure exactly what I'm

55:32 at. And so you just kind drew it and hopefully you got

55:35 Right. So, I'm less interested your understanding all the different phases first

55:40 . You should just know them in . So, it's pro fes meta

55:43 and phase to a phase. Easy to remember its ip ip for

55:46 right, hip matt. And you memorize that tattoo it to your

55:50 whatever it takes. All right. the idea here is that we're going

55:53 go through these stages. And the is we're gonna take that DNA that

55:59 . All right, We're gonna align in the center so that we can

56:03 the D. N. A equally two parts. Right? And then

56:07 can split the cytoplasm into two parts well. Alright. So that we

56:12 up with two daughter cells that are clone of the original cell. All

56:17 , that's the idea. Alright, pro phase is basically the breakdown of

56:24 nucleus. The meta phase is basically alignment of the DNA before we split

56:29 apart. And a phase is basically period where we're splitting the DNA apart

56:34 phases, basically we're trying to reorganize cells into their proper structure, so

56:39 going to recreate the nuclei and then gonna split that. Um um the

56:44 is all equally between the two daughter . So that's kind of the big

56:49 stuff, but there's a lot of in there and I just want to

56:53 out, you do not need like, pro fes has six sub

56:57 in it. Right? So it really confusing. So if you don't

57:02 what you're looking for and you haven't taught this stuff, it's like,

57:06 , I don't know. So if just keep it simple breakdown,

57:09 line things up, split things apart try to form two new cells,

57:13 probably in good shape, right? you're actually studying this material.

57:19 I pointed out here, these two and I put something in different colors

57:25 highlight them. And it's this word . Sido sell kinesis is movement of

57:35 sort. And what we're doing here psychokinesis refers to the process of breaking

57:41 cell apart into two. Alright, we're gonna start here and it's not

57:49 shown but we're going to continue it so that we get those two daughter

57:57 . So mitosis and the steps of refer to nuclear division. Alright.

58:05 you hear the word mitosis, think dividing the D. N.

58:09 So I copied the D. A. In the S. Phase

58:12 interphase or write the S. And then now what I'm doing is

58:18 splitting it in half. So if doubled it now I'm returning back to

58:23 original number. So that's really what job of mitosis is. And then

58:30 . So nuclear division mitosis, psychokinesis cellular division. It's the vision of

58:35 cytoplasm. Alright. And that's gonna very early on in an A phase

58:42 really kind of midway through an A and it continues on through the tele

58:47 and then once it's finished now you your two cells and now you're back

58:51 the interface and you're repeating that process over again. So picture up here

58:57 terrible because it doesn't show that. you should start seeing a cleavage

59:03 What does that mean? Think of this way? I took a lasso

59:05 the nice texas example, took a . I wrapped it around the cell

59:09 now I'm squeezing the lasso, that's it's doing, it's it's gonna split

59:14 half questions about this. Yeah. here you can see it clearly

59:26 I mean they're the artist is like I've done it. But it's really

59:30 here. The artist didn't draw it the picture. So use this say

59:37 that little divot. That's the cleavage . Alright. And basically what I'm
