Abstract excerpt
The involvement of 12-lipoxygenase (12-LOX) expression and function in tumor metastasis has been demonstrated in several murine tumor cell lines. In addition, 12-LOX expression was detected in human prostatic tumors and correlated to the clinical stage of disease. Here we provide data that human prostate cancer cell lines express the platelet-type isoform of 12-LOX at both the mRNA and protein levels, and...
