Decenijama, naučnica Mina Bisel se bavila revolucionarnom idejom -- ćelije karcinoma ne postaju automatski tumor, već su zavisne od nagoveštaja okolnih ćelija (svoje mikorokoline) kako će se razviti. Ona predstavlja dva ključna eksperimenta koji su dokazali da je vodeće mišljenje o rastu karcinoma pogrešno.

Now, I don't usually like cartoons,
0
432
2722
Obično ne volim karikature,
00:19
I don't think many of them are funny,
1
3154
2510
mislim da mnoge od njih nisu smešne,
00:21
I find them weird. But I love this cartoon from the New Yorker.
2
5664
5223
nalazim da su čudne. Ali, volim ovu karikaturu iz New Yorker-a.
00:26
(Text: Never, ever think outside the box.) (Laughter)
3
10887
2612
(Tekst: Nikad, nikad ne razmišljaj izvan kutije) (Smeh)
00:29
So, the guy is telling the cat,
4
13499
2469
Dakle, čovek govori mački,
00:31
don't you dare think outside the box.
5
15968
5371
da se nisi usudila da razmišljaš van kutije.
00:37
Well, I'm afraid I used to be the cat.
6
21339
3307
Bojim se da sam i ja nekad bila mačka.
00:40
I always wanted to be outside the box.
7
24646
3058
Uvek sam želela da budem van kutije.
00:43
And it's partly because I came to this field
8
27704
3482
Delimično zbog toga što sam u ovu struku došla
00:47
from a different background, chemist and a bacterial geneticist.
9
31186
5213
sa drugačijom pozadinom, kao hemičar i genetičar bakterija.
00:52
So, what people were saying to me
10
36399
2602
Dakle, ono što su mi ljudi govorili
00:54
about the cause of cancer, sources of cancer,
11
39001
3191
o uzroku raka, poreklu raka
00:58
or, for that matter, why you are who you are,
12
42192
3081
ili uopšte, zašto ste takvi kakvi ste,
01:01
didn't make sense.
13
45273
1874
nije imalo smisla.
01:03
So, let me quickly try and tell you why I thought that
14
47147
3047
Dozvolite mi da pokušam brzo da vam kažem
01:06
and how I went about it.
15
50194
2601
šta i kako sam o tome razmišljala.
01:08
So, to begin with, however,
16
52795
2432
Međutim, da bih započela,
01:11
I have to give you a very, very quick lesson
17
55227
4426
moram vam dati veoma kratku lekciju
01:15
in developmental biology,
18
59653
1767
iz razvojne biologije,
01:17
with apologies to those of you who know some biology.
19
61420
4062
uz izvinjenje onima koji znaju ponešto biologije.
01:21
So, when your mom and dad met,
20
65482
3014
Kada su se vaši mama i tata sreli,
01:24
there is a fertilized egg,
21
68496
2674
stvara se oplođeno jaje,
01:27
that round thing with that little blip.
22
71170
2121
ta okrugla stvar sa tom malom tačkom.
01:29
It grows and then it grows,
23
73291
3055
Ono raste i onda opet raste
01:32
and then it makes this handsome man.
24
76346
4153
i onda postane ovaj zgodni čovek.
01:36
(Applause)
25
80499
1415
(Aplauz)
01:37
So, this guy, with all the cells in his body,
26
81914
5658
Ovaj čovek i sve ćelije u njegovom telu,
01:43
all have the same genetic information.
27
87572
4212
imaju istu naslednu informaciju.
01:47
So how did his nose become his nose, his elbow his elbow,
28
91784
4375
Dakle, kako je njegov nos postao njegov nos, njegov lakat njegov lakat,
01:52
and why doesn't he get up one morning
29
96159
2176
i zašto se jednog jutra ne probudi
01:54
and have his nose turn into his foot?
30
98335
2560
sa nosem pretvorenim u stopalo?
01:56
It could. It has the genetic information.
31
100895
3240
To je moguće. Za to nos ima naslednu informaciju.
02:00
You all remember, dolly,
32
104135
1208
Svi se sećate, lučići,
02:01
it came from a single mammary cell.
33
105343
2681
sve je nastalo iz jedne ćelije sisara.
02:03
So, why doesn't it do it?
34
108024
1934
Pa, zašto se to ne dogodi?
02:05
So, have a guess of how many cells he has in his body.
35
109958
5503
Pokušajte da pogodite koliko ćelija on ima u svom telu.
02:11
Somewhere between 10 trillion to 70 trillion cells in his body.
36
115461
7402
Nešto između 10 i 70 biliona ćelija.
02:18
Trillion!
37
122863
1640
Biliona!
02:20
Now, how did these cells, all with the same genetic material,
38
124503
4638
Kako su ove ćelije, sve sa istim naslednim materijalom,
02:25
make all those tissues?
39
129141
2208
stvorile sva ta tkiva?
02:27
And so, the question I raised before
40
131349
3144
Pitanje koje sam postavila ranije
02:30
becomes even more interesting if you thought about
41
134493
3614
postaje još interesantnije, ako ste razmišljali o
02:34
the enormity of this in every one of your bodies.
42
138107
4586
ogromnom broju ćelija u svakom od naših tela.
02:38
Now, the dominant cancer theory would say
43
142693
3000
Vladajuća teorija raka bi tvrdila
02:41
that there is a single oncogene
44
145693
2312
da postoji jedan onkogen
02:43
in a single cancer cell, and it would make you
45
148005
3704
u jednoj ćeliji raka, koji će učiniti da postanete
02:47
a cancer victim.
46
151709
2649
žrtva raka.
02:50
Well, this did not make sense to me.
47
154358
3666
Meni ovo nije imalo smisla.
02:53
Do you even know how a trillion looks?
48
158024
3182
Da li uopšte znate kako bilion izgleda?
02:57
Now, let's look at it.
49
161206
1719
Hajde da ga vidimo.
02:58
There it comes, these zeroes after zeroes after zeroes.
50
162925
5041
Evo ga ovde, ove nule, posle nula, posle nula.
03:03
Now, if .0001 of these cells got mutated,
51
167966
6818
Sada, ako jedna u deset hiljada od ovih ćelija mutira,
03:10
and .00001 got cancer, you will be a lump of cancer.
52
174784
5257
a jedna u sto hiljada dobije rak, vi ćete biti grudva kancera.
03:15
You will have cancer all over you. And you're not.
53
180041
2296
Imaćete kancer svuda po sebi. A vi to nemate.
03:18
Why not?
54
182337
2309
Zašto ne?
03:20
So, I decided over the years,
55
184646
3722
Zaključila sam tokom godina,
03:24
because of a series of experiments
56
188368
1928
s obzirom na serije eksperimenata
03:26
that this is because of context and architecture.
57
190296
4880
da je razlog za ovo kontekst i arhitektura.
03:31
And let me quickly tell you
58
195176
2177
Dozvolite mi da vam brzo ispričam
03:33
some crucial experiment that was able to actually show this.
59
197353
3927
presudan ogled koji je uspeo ovo da dokaže.
03:37
To begin with, I came to work with this virus
60
201280
3911
Da počnemo, počela sam da radim sa ovim virusom
03:41
that causes that ugly tumor in the chicken.
61
205191
3393
koji izaziva ovaj ružni tumor kod pilića.
03:44
Rous discovered this in 1911.
62
208584
3360
Ras ga je otkrio 1911.
03:47
It was the first cancer virus discovered,
63
211944
3565
To je bio prvi otkriveni virus raka
03:51
and when I call it "oncogene," meaning "cancer gene."
64
215509
4891
i kad ga nazovem ,,onkogen”, mislim na ,,gen raka”.
03:56
So, he made a filtrate, he took this filter
65
220400
2912
On je napravio filtrat, uzeo je taj sadržaj
03:59
which was the liquid after he passed the tumor through a filter,
66
223312
4256
odnosno tečnost, nakon što je tumor propustio kroz filter,
04:03
and he injected it to another chicken, and he got another tumor.
67
227568
4001
ubrizgao ga je drugom piletu i dobio drugi tumor.
04:07
So, scientists were very excited,
68
231569
2711
Naučnici su bili veoma uzbuđeni
04:10
and they said, a single oncogene can do it.
69
234280
2168
i rekli su, jedan onkogen to može da uradi.
04:12
All you need is a single oncogene.
70
236448
2296
Sve što ti treba je jedan onkogen.
04:14
So, they put the cells in cultures, chicken cells,
71
238744
2895
Dakle, stavili su ćelije u kulture, pileće ćelije,
04:17
dumped the virus on it,
72
241639
2035
istresli virus na njih,
04:19
and it would pile up,
73
243674
1449
one bi se nagomilale,
04:21
and they would say, this is malignant and this is normal.
74
245123
3021
a oni su zaključili, ovo je maligno i ovo je normalno.
04:24
And again this didn't make sense to me.
75
248144
2018
Ponovo ovo mi nije imalo smisla.
04:26
So for various reasons, we took this oncogene,
76
250162
3286
Zbog toga smo iz različitih razloga, uzeli ovaj onkogen,
04:29
attached it to a blue marker,
77
253448
2312
vezali ga za plavi marker
04:31
and we injected it into the embryos.
78
255760
3008
i ubrizgali ga u embrione.
04:34
Now look at that. There is that beautiful feather in the embryo.
79
258768
4193
Sada pogledajte ovo. Tu je to divno pero u embrionu.
04:38
Every one of those blue cells are a cancer gene
80
262961
4279
Svaka od ovih plavih struktura je gen raka
04:43
inside a cancer cell, and they're part of the feather.
81
267240
4416
u ćeliji raka i one su deo pera.
04:47
So, when we dissociated the feather and put it in a dish,
82
271656
4600
Kada smo izdvojili pero i stavili ga u posudu,
04:52
we got a mass of blue cells.
83
276256
2712
dobili smo masu plavih ćelija.
04:54
So, in the chicken you get a tumor,
84
278968
1466
Tako, u piletu dobijete tumor,
04:56
in the embryo you don't,
85
280434
1704
u embrionu ga ne dobijete,
04:58
you dissociate, you put it in a dish, you get another tumor.
86
282138
3992
izdvojite ćelije, stavite ih u posudu i dobijete novi tumor.
05:02
What does that mean?
87
286130
1223
Šta ovo znači?
05:03
That means that microenvironment
88
287353
2984
To znači da mikrookolina
05:06
and the context which surrounds those cells
89
290337
4009
i kontekst koji okružuje ove ćelije,
05:10
actually are telling the cancer gene and the cancer cell what to do.
90
294346
6927
u stvari govore genu raka i ćeliji raka šta da rade.
05:17
Now, let's take a normal example.
91
301273
3312
Hajde da uzmemo normalan uzorak.
05:20
The normal example, let's take the human mammary gland.
92
304585
3185
Normalan uzorak, hajde da uzmemo ljudsku mlečnu žlezdu.
05:23
I work on breast cancer.
93
307770
1480
Ja istražujem rak dojke.
05:25
So, here is a lovely human breast.
94
309250
3007
Ovde je krasna ljudska dojka.
05:28
And many of you know how it looks,
95
312257
1948
Mnogi od vas znaju kako ona izgleda,
05:30
except that inside that breast, there are all these
96
314205
2853
izuzev da unutar te dojke, postoje sve ove
05:32
pretty, developing, tree-like structures.
97
317058
3377
lepe, razvojne strukture koje podsećaju na drvo.
05:36
So, we decided that what we like to do
98
320435
2898
Odlučili smo da ono što želimo da uradimo
05:39
is take just a bit of that mammary gland,
99
323333
2960
je da uzmemo samo delić te mlečne žlezde,
05:42
which is called an "acinus,"
100
326293
2032
koji se zove acinus,
05:44
where there are all these little things inside the breast
101
328325
3641
gde su sve ove male strukture unutar dojke
05:47
where the milk goes, and the end of the nipple
102
331966
3543
gde prolazi mleko i kad beba sisa, izlazi
05:51
comes through that little tube when the baby sucks.
103
335509
3544
kroz malu cev na vrhu bradavice.
05:54
And we said, wonderful! Look at this pretty structure.
104
339053
3407
Rekli smo, divno! Pogledajte ovu lepu strukturu.
05:58
We want to make this a structure, and ask the question,
105
342460
3769
Želimo da stvorimo ovu strukturu i postavimo pitanje:
06:02
how do the cells do that?
106
346229
1704
,,Kako te ćelije to rade?”
06:03
So, we took the red cells --
107
347933
1792
Uzeli smo crvene ćelije --
06:05
you see the red cells are surrounded by blue,
108
349725
3248
vidite crvene ćelije okružene plavima,
06:08
other cells that squeeze them, and behind it
109
352973
3329
drugim ćelijama koje ih pritiskaju, a iza toga je
06:12
is material that people thought was mainly inert,
110
356302
3718
materijal za koji su ljudi mislili da je uglavnom neaktivan
06:15
and it was just having a structure to keep the shape,
111
360020
3597
i da ima strukturu samo da bi se održavao oblik,
06:19
and so we first photographed it
112
363617
2928
prvo smo ga fotografisali
06:22
with the electron microscope years and years ago,
113
366545
2768
elektronskim mikroskopom pre mnogo godina
06:25
and you see this cell is actually quite pretty.
114
369313
3056
i vidite da je ova ćelija u stvari prilično lepa.
06:28
It has a bottom, it has a top,
115
372369
2463
Ima dno, ima vrh
06:30
it is secreting gobs and gobs of milk,
116
374832
2681
i izlučuje velike količine mleka,
06:33
because it just came from an early pregnant mouse.
117
377513
3192
jer su poreklom od miša u ranoj trudnoći.
06:36
You take these cells, you put them in a dish,
118
380705
2327
Uzmete ove ćelije, stavite ih u posudu
06:38
and within three days, they look like that.
119
383032
3345
i nakon tri dana, one izgledaju ovako.
06:42
They completely forget.
120
386377
3160
One potpuno zaborave.
06:45
So you take them out, you put them in a dish,
121
389537
2800
Dakle, izvadite ih, stavite ih u posudu
06:48
they don't make milk. They completely forget.
122
392337
2663
i one ne proizvode mleko. Potpuno zaborave.
06:50
For example, here is a lovely yellow droplet of milk
123
395000
4899
Na primer, ovde je lepa žuta kap mleka
06:55
on the left, there is nothing on the right.
124
399899
2255
sa leve strane, nema ništa sa desne strane.
06:58
Look at the nuclei. The nuclei in the cell on the left
125
402154
3729
Pogledajte jedra. Jedra ćelija sa leve strane
07:01
is in the animal, the one on the right is in a dish.
126
405883
3496
su u životinji, ona sa desne su u posudi.
07:05
They are completely different from each other.
127
409379
2736
Potpuno su različita.
07:08
So, what does this tell you?
128
412115
2025
Šta vam to govori?
07:10
This tells you that here also, context overrides.
129
414140
4967
Ovo vam govori da i u ovom slučaju, kontekst nadvladava.
07:15
In different contexts, cells do different things.
130
419107
3385
U različitim kontekstima, ćelije rade različite stvari.
07:18
But how does context signal?
131
422492
2745
Ali kako kontekst daje signale?
07:21
So, Einstein said that
132
425237
2542
Ajnštajn je rekao:
07:23
"For an idea that does not first seem insane, there is no hope."
133
427779
6653
,,Za ideju koja u početku ne izgleda ludo, nema nade.”
07:30
So, you can imagine the amount of skepticism
134
434432
5960
Možete zamisliti koliko sam sumnjičavosti
07:36
I received -- couldn't get money,
135
440392
2401
doživela -- nisam mogla da dobijem novac,
07:38
couldn't do a whole lot of other things,
136
442793
1943
nisam mogla da uradim mnoge druge stvari.
07:40
but I'm so glad it all worked out.
137
444736
1729
Ali mi je tako drago da se sve razrešilo.
07:42
So, we made a section of the mammary gland of the mouse,
138
446465
3815
Napravili smo presek mlečne žlezde miša,
07:46
and all those lovely acini are there,
139
450280
3183
svi ti divni acinusi su tu,
07:49
every one of those with the red around them are an acinus,
140
453463
4211
svaki ovaj sa crvenim u okolini je acinus,
07:53
and we said okay, we are going to try and make this,
141
457674
3694
rekli smo dobro, pokušaćemo da ga napravimo
07:57
and I said, maybe that red stuff
142
461368
3232
i ja sam pomislila, možda taj crveni materijal
08:00
around the acinus that people think there's just a structural scaffold,
143
464600
5125
oko acinusa koji ljudi smatraju samo strukturnim skeletom,
08:05
maybe it has information,
144
469725
1940
možda on ima informaciju,
08:07
maybe it tells the cells what to do, maybe it tells the nucleus what to do.
145
471665
4566
možda on govori ćeliji šta da radi, možda on govori jedru šta da radi.
08:12
So I said, extracellular matrix, which is this stuff
146
476231
4283
Rekla sam, vanćelijski matriks, što je ova stvar,
08:16
called ECM, signals and actually tells the cells what to do.
147
480514
4391
skraćeno ECM, koja signalizira i u stvari govori ćeliji šta da radi.
08:20
So, we decided to make things that would look like that.
148
484905
3767
Odlučili smo da napravimo nešto što bi tako izgledalo.
08:24
We found some gooey material
149
488672
2880
Našli smo neki gnjecav materijal
08:27
that had the right extracellular matrix in it,
150
491552
2875
koji je imao u sebi odgovarajući vanćelijski matriks,
08:30
we put the cells in it, and lo and behold,
151
494427
2539
stavili smo ćelije u njega, gledaj i vidi
08:32
in about four days, they got reorganized
152
496966
2821
za otprilike četiri dana, one su se preuredile
08:35
and on the right, is what we can make in culture.
153
499787
3408
i desno je ono što možemo dobiti u kulturi.
08:39
On the left is what's inside the animal, we call it in vivo,
154
503195
4496
Levo vidite šta je u životinji, zovemo ga in vivo,
08:43
and the one in culture was full of milk,
155
507691
2584
one u kulturi su bile pune mleka,
08:46
the lovely red there is full of milk.
156
510275
2800
lepe crvene su pune mleka.
08:48
So, we Got Milk, for the American audience.
157
513075
3416
Tako smo dobili mleko, za američku publiku.
08:52
All right. And here is this beautiful human cell,
158
516491
5344
U redu. Ovde je divna ljudska ćelija,
08:57
and you can imagine that here also, context goes.
159
521835
4946
možete da zamislite, da je i ovde kontekst bitan.
09:02
So, what do we do now?
160
526781
2716
Pa, šta sad da radimo?
09:05
I made a radical hypothesis.
161
529497
2224
Napravila sam radikalnu hipotezu.
09:07
I said, if it's true that architecture is dominant,
162
531721
6663
Rekla sam, ako je tačno da je arhitektura dominantna,
09:14
architecture restored to a cancer cell
163
538384
4486
onda bi obnovljena arhitektura trebalo da utiče
09:18
should make the cancer cell think it's normal.
164
542870
2989
na ćeliju raka, da ćelija raka misli da je normalna.
09:21
Could this be done?
165
545859
1484
Da li bi se ovo moglo učiniti?
09:23
So, we tried it.
166
547343
2528
Pokušali smo.
09:25
In order to do that, however,
167
549871
2038
Međutim, da bi ovo učinili,
09:27
we needed to have a method of distinguishing normal from malignant,
168
551909
4885
trebao nam je metod razlikovanja normalnog od malignog,
09:32
and on the left is the single normal cell,
169
556794
3997
levo je pojedinačna normalna ćelija
09:36
human breast, put in three-dimensional gooey gel
170
560791
3963
ljudske dojke, stavljena u trodimenzionalni gnjecavi gel
09:40
that has extracellular matrix, it makes all these beautiful structures.
171
564754
3864
koji ima vanćelijski matriks, ćelija pravi sve te divne strukture.
09:44
On the right, you see it looks very ugly,
172
568618
2888
Sa desne strane, vidite da izgleda veoma ružno,
09:47
the cells continue to grow,
173
571506
1648
ćelije nastavljaju da rastu,
09:49
the normal ones stop.
174
573154
1576
dok normalne prestaju.
09:50
And you see here in higher magnification
175
574730
2832
Ovde pod većim uvećanjem vidite
09:53
the normal acinus and the ugly tumor.
176
577562
4352
normalan acinus i ružni tumor.
09:57
So we said, what is on the surface of these ugly tumors?
177
581914
4224
Pitali smo, šta je na površini ovih ružnih tumora?
10:02
Could we calm them down --
178
586138
2168
Možemo li da ih smirimo --
10:04
they were signaling like crazy and they have pathways all messed up --
179
588306
4920
šalju signale kao poludele i imaju potpuno zamršene puteve --
10:09
and make them to the level of the normal?
180
593226
3064
i vratimo ih na nivo normalnih ćelija?
10:12
Well, it was wonderful. Boggles my mind.
181
596290
4720
Pa, to je bilo divno. Čudnovato.
10:16
This is what we got.
182
601010
2161
Ovo smo dobili.
10:19
We can revert the malignant phenotype.
183
603171
3679
Možemo da preokrenemo maligni fenotip.
10:22
(Applause)
184
606850
2568
(Aplauz)
10:25
And in order to show you that the malignant phenotype
185
609418
3112
Da bih vam pokazala taj maligni fenotip
10:28
I didn't just choose one,
186
612530
1718
nisam izabrala samo jedan,
10:30
here are little movies, sort of fuzzy,
187
614248
2770
ovde su kratki filmovi, pomalo zamućeni,
10:32
but you see that on the left are the malignant cells,
188
617018
3656
ali levo možete videti maligne ćelije,
10:36
all of them are malignant,
189
620674
1344
sve su one maligne,
10:37
we add one single inhibitor in the beginning,
190
622018
4800
dodali smo jedan inhibitor na početku
10:42
and look what happens, they all look like that.
191
626818
3457
i pogledajte šta se događa, sve one izgledaju tako.
10:46
We inject them into the mouse, the ones on the right,
192
630275
3447
Ubrizgali smo ih u miša, one sa desne strane
10:49
and none of them would make tumors.
193
633722
2240
i nijedna nije htela da napravili tumore.
10:51
We inject the other ones in the mouse, 100 percent tumors.
194
635962
3536
Ubrizgali smo one druge u miša, sto posto tumori.
10:55
So, it's a new way of thinking about cancer,
195
639498
2672
To je novi način razmišljanja o kanceru,
10:58
it's a hopeful way of thinking about cancer.
196
642170
2400
to je način razmišljanja o kanceru koji daje nadu.
11:00
We should be able to be dealing with these things at this level,
197
644570
3976
Trebalo bi da možemo da rešavamo ove probleme na sadašnjem nivou
11:04
and these conclusions say that growth and malignant behavior
198
648546
5912
i ovi zaključci govore da su rast i maligno ponašanje
11:10
is regulated at the level of tissue organization
199
654458
3872
regulisani na nivou organizacije tkiva,
11:14
and that the tissue organization is dependent
200
658330
3992
da je ova organizacija tkiva zavisna
11:18
on the extracellular matrix and the microenvironment.
201
662322
3696
od vanćelijskog matriksa i mikrookoline.
11:21
All right, thus form and function interact dynamically and reciprocally.
202
666018
7631
Prema tome, forma i funkcija deluju dinamično i uzajamno,
11:29
And here is another five seconds of repose,
203
673649
4120
Ovde je dodatnih pet sekundi pauze,
11:33
is my mantra. Form and function.
204
677769
4422
moja mantra. Forma i funkcija.
11:38
And of course, we now ask, where do we go now?
205
682191
3646
Svakako, pitamo se, u kom pravcu sada da idemo?
11:41
We'd like to take this kind of thinking into the clinic.
206
685837
2995
Želeli bismo da prenesemo ovaj način razmišljanja u praksu.
11:44
But before we do that, I'd like you to think
207
688832
3924
Ali pre nego što to uradimo, volela bih da razmislite
11:48
that at any given time when you're sitting there,
208
692756
3588
da u svakom trenutku dok ovde sedite,
11:52
in your 70 trillion cells,
209
696344
3013
u vaših 70 biliona ćelija,
11:55
the extracellular matrix signaling to your nucleus,
210
699357
3473
vanćelijski matriks signalizira vašem jedru,
11:58
the nucleus is signaling to your extracellular matrix
211
702830
3078
jedro signalizira vašem vanćelijskom matriksu
12:01
and this is how your balance is kept and restored.
212
705908
5994
i to je način kako se vaša ravnoteža uspostavlja i održava.
12:07
We have made a lot of discoveries,
213
711902
2215
Napravili smo mnoga otkrića,
12:10
we have shown that extracellular matrix talks to chromatin.
214
714117
3088
pokazali smo da vanćelijski matriks razgovara sa hromatinom.
12:13
We have shown that there's little pieces of DNA
215
717205
3447
Pokazali smo da postoje mali delovi DNK,
12:16
on the specific genes of the mammary gland
216
720652
3823
specifični geni mlečne žlezde,
12:20
that actually respond to extracellular matrix.
217
724475
2864
koji u stvari reaguju na vanćelijski matriks.
12:23
It has taken many years, but it has been very rewarding.
218
727339
3697
Bilo je potrebno mogo godina, ali je bilo veoma korisno.
12:26
And before I get to the next slide, I have to tell you
219
731036
4391
Pre nego što pređem na sledeći slajd, moram da vam kažem
12:31
that there are so many additional discoveries to be made.
220
735427
5112
da postoji još mnogo dodatnih otkrića.
12:36
There is so much mystery we don't know.
221
740539
2528
Postoji toliko tajanstvenog što ne znamo.
12:38
And I always say to the students and post-docs I lecture to,
222
743067
4361
Uvek kažem studentima i postdiplomcima kojima predajem,
12:43
don't be arrogant, because arrogance kills curiosity.
223
747428
5663
ne budite uobraženi, jer uobraženost ubija znatiželju.
12:48
Curiosity and passion.
224
753091
2192
Znatiželja i žar.
12:51
You need to always think, what else needs to be discovered?
225
755283
3897
Uvek treba da mislite, šta još treba da se otkrije?
12:55
And maybe my discovery needs to be added to
226
759180
2975
Možda mom otkriću treba nešto dodati
12:58
or maybe it needs to be changed.
227
762155
1792
ili ga treba menjati.
12:59
So, we have now made an amazing discovery,
228
763947
3504
Upravo smo napravili neverovatno oktriće,
13:03
a post-doc in the lab who is a physicist asked me,
229
767451
3104
doktorantkinja u laboratoriji, koja je fizičar, me je pitala
13:06
what do the cells do when you put them in?
230
770555
2177
šta ove ćelije rade kad ih stavite u posudu?
13:08
What do they do in the beginning when they do?
231
772732
3294
Šta rade na početku aktivnosti?
13:11
I said, I don't know, we couldn't look at them.
232
776026
1481
Rekla sam da ne znam, nismo mogli da ih gledamo.
13:13
We didn't have high images in the old days.
233
777507
2593
Nismo imali slike visoke rezolucije u starim danima.
13:16
So she, being an imager and a physicist,
234
780100
2695
Tako je ona, s obzirom da je mikroskopista i fizičar,
13:18
did this incredible thing.
235
782795
1744
uradila nešto neverovatno.
13:20
This is a single human breast cell in three dimensions.
236
784539
4376
Ovo je pojedinačna ćelija ljudske dojke u tri dimenzije.
13:24
Look at it. It's constantly doing this.
237
788915
2528
Pogledajte je. Ona konstantno radi ovo.
13:27
Has a coherent movement.
238
791443
2096
Ima skladan pokret.
13:29
You put the cancer cells there, and they do go all over,
239
793539
4334
Ako tu stavite ćelije raka, one se kreću svuda,
13:33
they do this. They don't do this.
240
797873
1904
one rade ovo. One ne rade ovo.
13:35
And when we revert the cancer cell, it again does this.
241
799777
4008
A kada preokrenemo ćeliju raka, ona opet radi ovo.
13:39
Absolutely boggles my mind.
242
803785
2184
Apsolutno me začuđuje.
13:41
So the cell acts like an embryo. What an exciting thing.
243
805969
5344
Dakle, ćelije se ponašaju kao embrion. Kako uzbudljivo.
13:47
So I'd like to finish with a poem.
244
811313
2856
Volela bih da završim sa stihovima.
13:50
Well I used to love English literature,
245
814169
3064
Volela sam englesku književnost,
13:53
and I debated in college, which one should I do?
246
817233
2607
i razmišljala sam na koledžu šta bi trebalo da radim?
13:55
And unfortunately or fortunately, chemistry won.
247
819840
4612
Na sreću ili na nesreću, pobedila je hemija.
14:00
But here is a poem from Yeats. I'll just read you the last two lines.
248
824452
5724
Ovde je Jejtsova pesma. Pročitaću vam samo poslednja dva stiha.
14:06
It's called "Among the School Children."
249
830176
2659
Zove se “Među školarcima”.
14:08
"O body swayed to music / O brightening glance /
250
832835
4521
O telo što uz muziku se njiše
Vedrog oka bles
Kako od plesača razlučiti ples.
(preveo Igor Popov)
Vedrog oka bles
Kako od plesača razlučiti ples.
(preveo Igor Popov)
14:13
How [can we know] the dancer from the dance?"
251
837356
3150
O telo što uz muziku se njiše
Vedrog oka bles
Kako od plesača razlučiti ples.
(preveo Igor Popov)
Vedrog oka bles
Kako od plesača razlučiti ples.
(preveo Igor Popov)
14:16
And here is Merce Cunningham,
252
840506
1911
Ovo je Mers Kaninghem.
14:18
I was fortunate to dance with him when I was younger,
253
842417
2984
Imala sam sreću da plešem sa njim kad sam bila mlađa,
14:21
and here he is a dancer,
254
845401
2193
ovde je plesač,
14:23
and while he is dancing, he is both the dancer and the dance.
255
847594
3304
dok pleše, on je istovremeno plesač i ples.
14:26
The minute he stops, we have neither.
256
850898
3701
Onog trenutka kad prestane, nemamo ni jedno.
14:30
So it's like form and function.
257
854599
3474
To je kao forma I funkcija.
14:33
Now, I'd like to show you a current picture of my group.
258
858073
5779
Sada, želela bih da vam pokažem sadašnju fotografiju moje grupe.
14:39
I have been fortunate to have had these magnificant
259
863852
3528
Imala sam sreću da imam ove sjajne
14:43
students and post-docs who have taught me so much,
260
867380
3224
studente i postdiplomce koji su me toliko naučili,
14:46
and I have had many of these groups come and go.
261
870604
3263
imala sam mnogo ovakvih grupa koje su došle i prošle.
14:49
They are the future and I try to make them not be afraid
262
873867
4577
Oni su budućnost i trudim se da ih naučim da se ne uplaše
14:54
of being the cat and being told,
263
878444
3703
da budu mačka i kad im se kaže
14:58
don't think outside the box.
264
882147
1593
da ne misle van uobičajenog.
14:59
And I'd like to leave you with this thought.
265
883740
2495
Volela bih da vas ostavim sa ovim razmišljanjem.
15:02
On the left is water coming through the shore,
266
886235
4745
Sa leve strane je voda koja dolazi na obalu,
15:06
taken from a NASA satellite.
267
890980
1895
slikano iz NASA satelita.
15:08
On the right, there is a coral.
268
892875
3049
Desno je koral.
15:11
Now if you take the mammary gland and spread it
269
895924
4002
Sada ako uzmete mlečnu žlezdu i napravite preparat,
15:15
and take the fat away, on a dish it looks like that.
270
899926
3445
oduzimajući masno tkivo, u posudi ona izgleda ovako.
15:19
Do they look the same? Do they have the same patterns?
271
903371
3352
Da li izgledaju isto? Da li imaju iste obrasce?
15:22
Why is it that nature keeps doing that over and over again?
272
906723
3952
Zašto priroda uvek iznova radi ovo?
15:26
And I'd like to submit to you
273
910675
2360
Htela bih da vam predočim
15:28
that we have sequenced the human genome,
274
913035
2177
da smo odredili ljudski genom,
15:31
we know everything about the sequence of the gene,
275
915212
2880
znamo sve o redosledu gena,
15:33
the language of the gene, the alphabet of the gene,
276
918092
2431
jeziku gena, abecedi gena.
15:36
But we know nothing, but nothing,
277
920523
3239
Ali ne znamo ništa, baš ništa,
15:39
about the language and alphabet of form.
278
923762
4663
o jeziku i abecedi forme.
15:44
So, it's a wonderful new horizon,
279
928425
3044
To je divni novi horizont,
15:47
it's a wonderful thing to discover for the young
280

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Mina Bissell - Cancer ResearcherMina Bissell studies how cancer interacts with our bodies, searching for clues to how cancer's microenvironment influences its growth.
Why you should listen
Mina Bissell's groundbreaking research has proven that cancer is not only caused by cancer cells. It is caused by an interaction between cancer cells and the surrounding cellular micro-environment. In healthy bodies, normal tissue homeostasis and architecture inhibit the progression of cancers. But changes in the microenvironment--following an injury or a wound for instance--can shift the balance. This explains why many people harbor potentially malignant tumors in their bodies without knowing it and never develop cancer, and why tumors often develop when tissue is damaged or when the immune system is suppressed.
The converse can also be true. In a landmark 1997 experiment, mutated mammary cells, when dosed with an antibody and placed into a normal cellular micro-environment, behaved normally. This powerful insight from Bissell's lab may lead to new ways of treating existing and preventing potential cancers.
