The aim of this course is to define the basic oncology and to teach the molecular basis of carcinogenesis and anticancer treatment with examples from special cancer types.
Carcinogenesis, cell cycle and cancer relationship, the role of differentiation and transformation in cancer development and molecular mechanisms. Cell Death Mechanisms, Angiogenesis, Invasion and Metastasis, Significance of Signal Pathways in Cancer, Oncogen and Tumor Suppressor The importance of genes in cancer diagnosis, treatment and follow-up. In the courses, cancer cell culture, Western blot application, DNA, RNA isolation from tumor tissue, real time PCR mutation analysis in cancer diagnosis will be explained.
