Krom Phra Sri Sawangkhawatana President of Chulabhorn Research Institute His Majesty gave a special lecture on cancer biology-cell proliferation. bestowed upon students of medical, nursing, public health and graduate studies His Highness gave an example to make it easier to understand.
7 Jan. 2022 – Professor Dr. Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn Prince Chulabhorn Walailak empress Krom Phra Sri Sawangkhawathana Worakatiya Rajanaree The President of Chulabhorn Research Institute came out at the Throne Hall, Thippiman Palace. Pong Ta Long Subdistrict, Pak Chong District, Nakhon Ratchasima Province Her Royal Highness gave a special lecture on Oncogenesis cancer, given to 3rd year medical students, 4th year nursing students, 4th year public health students, and graduate students. as well as health science personnel and personnel of the Academic Promotion Division Suranaree University of Technology for the academic year 2021, 80 people through electronic media, online in the topic 3 “Cancer Biology – Cell Proliferation: Uncontrolled cell cycle and signaling pathways.” which is essential knowledge That will lead to an understanding of principles that will be used in the development of cancer treatment. especially important processes related to cancer
Cancer is a disease caused by uncontrolled cell proliferation. Although the control circuits of cancer cells and normal cells are almost the same, they are not the same. But cancer cells are finding new ways to grow, such as multiplying. entering a state of cessation of division and enters the end of the cell’s lifespan and cell death process Normally, the body is controlled to be balanced and appropriate. But if there is a malfunction in the control in these systems It can lead to the occurrence of cancer. increasing the number of cells It is related to the cell cycle. or cell division cycle Which is divided into 4 stages, starting from creating DNA to increase the amount of genetic material to prepare until entering the process of cell division into 2 cells. division of cancer cells There will be a point that checks and controls the accuracy and quality of the cell’s function. which depends on a number of specific proteins that control the signaling pathway. to work properly and at the right time If a fault mechanism occurs at these control points may result in cancer
In addition, His Highness describes the process of signaling into cells. which leads to cellular response and gave an example of the importance of the condition in which cells enter into aging, known as senescence. By the biochemical changes that eventually the cells stop dividing permanently. which cells in this aging condition It may be important to prevent cancer drug treatment from being successful. Usually, cells are not qualified to survive. It goes into a process called apoptosis, a process by which the body gets rid of cells. causing problems Understanding the biology or properties of cancer cells as well as mechanisms in each step or process of growth cell proliferation It will be an important foundation for the development of early cancer diagnosis methods. until the development of better effective drugs and treatments
Throughout the lecture, he gave examples for understanding the content of the lesson, making it easier to understand. It is greatly appreciated by the faculty and students of Suranaree University of Technology.
