- cancer copolymer
Copolymer is a molecule made up of two or more different kinds of small molecules called monomers. The monomers are joined together in a repeating pattern. Cancer is a term for diseases in which abnormal cells divide without control and can invade nearby tissues. Cancer cells can also spread to other parts of the body through the blood and lymph systems. There are several main types of cancer. Carcinoma is a cancer that begins in the skin or in tissues that line or cover internal organs. Sarcoma is a cancer that begins in bone, cartilage, fat, muscle, blood vessels, or other connective or supportive tissue. Leukemia is a cancer that starts in blood-forming tissue such as the bone marrow, and causes large numbers of abnormal blood cells to be produced and enter the blood. Lymphoma and multiple myeloma are cancers that begin in the cells of the immune system. Central nervous system cancers are cancers that begin in the tissues of the brain and spinal cord. Also called malignancy.
Preview- It could seem apparant that, another effect of the polymers upon cancer cells is the inhibition of the Production of ATP in multi-drug resistant (MDR (TB Multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis)) cancer cells. The polymers seem to inhibit resperatory proteins I and IV, and the effect on respiration seems to be selective for MDR (TB Multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis) cancer cells, which may be explained by the difference in fuel sources between MDR (TB Multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis) and sensitive cells (fatty acids and glucose respectively).[citation needed] Glucose is a type of sugar; the chief source of energy for living organisms. ATP is a substance present in all living cells that provides energy for many metabolic processes and is involved in making RNA. ATP made in the laboratory is being studied in patients with advanced solid tumors to see if it can decrease weight loss and improve muscle strength. Also called adenosine triphosphate. IV, into or within a vein. IV usually refers to a way of giving a drug or other substance through a needle or tube inserted into a vein. Also called intravenous.
