Androgen refractory cancer of the prostate (ARCaP) cells contain androgen receptor (AR) and synthesize and secrete prostate specific antigen (PSA). We isolated epithelia-like ARCaP(E) from parental ARCaP cells and induced them to undergo epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by exposing these cells to soluble factors including TGFbeta1 plus EGF, IGF-1, beta2-microglobulin (beta2-m), or a bone microenvironment....
