Lineage relationship between LNCaP and LNCaP-derived prostate cancer cell lines.
BACKGROUND LNCaP and its derivative cell lines, which include C4-2 (and the related C4-2B) and CL1, are used as models of prostate cancer. Unlike LNCaP, the other cell lines show features of progressed disease such as metastatic capability and hormone independence. Analyses were done to determine if C4-2 or CL1 cells were selected from pre-existent subpopulations in LNCaP. METHODS Prostate ca...
متن کاملSynergistic Effects of NDRG2 Overexpression and Radiotherapy on Cell Death of Human Prostate LNCaP Cells
Background: Radiation therapy is among the most conventional cancer therapeutic modalities with effective local tumor control. However, due to the development of radio-resistance, tumor recurrence and metastasis often occur following radiation therapy. In recent years, combination of radiotherapy and gene therapy has been suggested to overcome this problem. The aim of the current study was to e...
متن کاملGrowth and characterization of LNCaP prostate cancer cell spheroids.
Cells from the prostate tumor cell line LNCaP have been grown as spheroids. The growth kinetics of the spheroids have been characterized by fitting a Gompertz equation to spheroid growth curves. The proliferation state of cells within spheroids of different diameters was assessed by bromodeoxyuridine staining. Scanning and electron transmission microscopy were performed to determine the ultrast...
متن کاملEmodin induces apoptosis in human prostate cancer cell LNCaP.
AIM To elucidate effects and mechanisms of emodin in prostate cancer cells. METHODS Viability of emodin-treated LNCaP cells and PC-3 cells was measured by MTT assay. Following emodin treatments, DNA fragmentation was assayed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Apoptosis rate and the expression of Fas and FasL were assayed by flow cytometric analysis. The mRNA expression levels of androgen recepto...
متن کاملEndocrine and Growth Factors Prostate LNCaP Tumors Are Determined by Tumor Volume and Serum Prostate Specific Antigen Levels in Mice Bearing Human
The ability of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) to predict tumor volume and stage in patients with prostate cancer would be improved if factors regulating its production and clearance were better defined. A thorough understanding of the pharmacokinetics (regulation of production, metab olism, and excretion) of PSA has been precluded, however, by the absence of an in vivo animal model. The purpos...
