Vocabulary Questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. What does “genetic alteration”<\/strong> mean? “When researchers at the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center first identified a new subtype of aggressive prostate cancer, they knew they needed to understand how this genetic alteration <\/strong>was driving cancer and how to target it with treatment.” <\/em>Use it in a sentence. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. What does “cancer driver gene”<\/strong> mean? “The loss of this gene activates other known cancer driver genes<\/strong>, causing them to be overexpressed at a high level while also causing DNA to be replicated very rapidly.”<\/em> Use it in a sentence. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. What does “bona fide” <\/strong>mean? “Then, when we added loss of the p53 oncogene, the mice developed bona fide <\/strong>invasive prostate cancer,” said senior author Arul M. Chinnaiyan, M.D., Ph.D., director of the Michigan Center for Translational Pathology and S.P. Hicks Professor of Pathology at Michigan Medicine.” <\/em>Use it in a sentence. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Discussion Questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. What specific subtype of prostate cancer does the new treatment target, and why is it considered aggressive?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. How does the new treatment differ from existing therapies for prostate cancer?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. What are the expected outcomes or survival benefits for patients using this treatment?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. What were some notable side effects of the new treatment observed during clinical trials ?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
