The human Y chromosome suppresses the tumorigenicity of PC‐3, a human prostate cancer cell line, in athymic nude mice
3 Aug 2005
Abstract excerpt
The loss of the Y chromosome is a frequent numerical chromosomal abnormality observed in human prostate cancer. In cancer, loss of specific genetic material frequently accompanies simultaneous inactivation of tumor suppressor genes. It is not known whether the Y chromosome harbors such genes. To address the role of genes on the Y chromosome in human prostate cancer, we transferred a tagged Y chromosome into PC-3,...
