I was most curious about: those bundles of DNA in our cells called chromosomes. And it was because I was curious about the very ends of chromosomes,

The science of cells that never get old | Elizabeth Blackburn

all we knew was that they helped protect the ends of chromosomes. It was important when cells divide. It was really important,

The science of cells that never get old | Elizabeth Blackburn

It multiples to two. Two becomes four. Four becomes eight, and on and on to form the 200 million billion cells that make up our adult body.

The science of cells that never get old | Elizabeth Blackburn

that make up our adult body. And some of those cells have to divide thousands of times. In fact, even as I stand here before you,

The science of cells that never get old | Elizabeth Blackburn

In fact, even as I stand here before you, all throughout my body, cells are furiously replenishing to, well, keep me standing here before you.

because that carries the vital operating instructions that keep our cells in good working order, so my heart cells can keep a steady beat,

and when that tip gets too short, it falls off, and that worn down telomere sends a signal to the cells. "The DNA is no longer being protected."

But the million-dollar question is: in an otherwise healthy body made up of trillions of cells, how can we zero in on a small group of rogue cancer cells?

What If a Simple Blood Test Could Detect Cancer? | Hani Goodarzi | TED · TED

in an otherwise healthy body made up of trillions of cells, how can we zero in on a small group of rogue cancer cells? The answer, I think,

What If a Simple Blood Test Could Detect Cancer? | Hani Goodarzi | TED · TED

as every other cell. It's as if our cells have access to the same pantry, but then they use different recipes

What If a Simple Blood Test Could Detect Cancer? | Hani Goodarzi | TED · TED

each with their own distinct role and function, like skin cells, for example, or neurons. And as you can imagine,

What If a Simple Blood Test Could Detect Cancer? | Hani Goodarzi | TED · TED

to be a healthy, well-functioning cell. Now, cancer cells, being the resourceful survivalists that they are, they actually hijack components of this machinery to their advantage.

What If a Simple Blood Test Could Detect Cancer? | Hani Goodarzi | TED · TED

Another way of putting this is that cancer cells are basically hacking that original genomic recipe that I told you about.

What If a Simple Blood Test Could Detect Cancer? | Hani Goodarzi | TED · TED

that is actually a consequence of this genomic reprogramming that happens in cancer cells, is actually a hallmark of cancer. Basically, parts of the genome that is normally silent

What If a Simple Blood Test Could Detect Cancer? | Hani Goodarzi | TED · TED

Basically, parts of the genome that is normally silent and inactive in healthy cells becomes activated in cancer.

What If a Simple Blood Test Could Detect Cancer? | Hani Goodarzi | TED · TED

That we only see these RNAs in cancer, but not really in healthy cells. Now over the past few years,

What If a Simple Blood Test Could Detect Cancer? | Hani Goodarzi | TED · TED

But how are these molecular barcodes actually useful? So it turns out oncRNAs are not actually confined to cancer cells. Some of them are nicely packaged and released into the blood.

What If a Simple Blood Test Could Detect Cancer? | Hani Goodarzi | TED · TED

Some of them are nicely packaged and released into the blood. And this is something that healthy cells do as well with other small RNAs. And with all of this introduction, I hope you know where I'm going with this.

What If a Simple Blood Test Could Detect Cancer? | Hani Goodarzi | TED · TED

And with all of this introduction, I hope you know where I'm going with this. Basically, if oncRNAs are only expressed in cancer cells, and some of them do in fact find their way into the bloodstream,

What If a Simple Blood Test Could Detect Cancer? | Hani Goodarzi | TED · TED

because only a subset of oncRNAs are actually secreted from cancer cells into the blood. And even a smaller subset can be reliably detected
