Abstract excerpt
Three putative prostate cancer-susceptibility genes, RNASEL/HPC1 at 1q24, MSR1 at 8p22, and ELAC2/HPC2 at 17p11, have recently been identified. Our objective was to investigate somatic mutations in these genes in sporadic prostate cancer. We analyzed 39 clinical prostate cancer specimens, 10 prostate cancer xenografts (LuCaP series), and 4 prostate cancer cell lines (LNCaP, DU145, PC-3, and MPC-3) for genetic...
