But repair enzymes fix mostBut repair enzymes fix most problems
If you cannot fix the all of the DNA damage, mistakes accumulate more rapidly and cancer usually starts earlier.
An example is individuals with Li-Fraumenid h ll d i dsyndrome whose cells do not recognize damage
(faulty p53).A th l i X d Pi tAnother example is Xeroderma Pigmentosum,
where patients cannot repair UV damage and get skin cancer more rapidly than most people – withskin cancer more rapidly than most people – with much less exposure

Growth factors and the cell cycleMitogens
T h h h l iTogether these pathways result in a complicated plan that results in a balance of proteins and other factors leading to cellproteins and other factors leading to cell growth and division.

SCF is over produced
In many Small Cell Lung Carcinoma patients, lots of SCF (stem cell factor) is produced andlots of SCF (stem cell factor) is produced and the cells also contain the growth factor receptor for this molecule. Therefore, p ,continuous growth signaling occurs.

Small molecule drugs
• Small molecule inhibitors.
S f h ll l l d• Some of these small molecule drugs are initially effective, but cancer cells can
i i i h k hsometimes acquire mutations that make them less effective over time. Some cancer cells
k d h d b kmake pumps to dump the drugs back out.

Long term goals
• Ultimately, targeting the stem cells that are th th l th t idlcancerous rather than only the most rapidly
growing cells will be important.• Development of specific drugs based on
specific cancer situations is also continuing.• http://www.cancer.gov/
