Abstract excerpt
Studies on the genetic basis of prostate cancer (PCa) have lead to mixed results with the only consensus being that PCa is a complex disease. Our goal was to gain insight into potential events involved in the acquisition of the androgen-refractory phenotype in PCa cells regardless of DNA-change dependence. To this end, we examined two LNCaP PCa cell line models of progression-one developed in vivo and one...
