Macrophages induce neuroendocrine differentiation of prostate cancer cells via BMP6‐IL6 Loop
3 Mar 2011
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Frequently associated with hormone refractory prostate cancer are neuroendocrine cells. Because these cells do not express androgen receptors and are castration-resistant, further understanding the mechanism of neuroendocrine differentiation (NED) of prostate cancer cells may yield novel intervention methods in hormone refractory prostate cancer. In this regard, the present study investigated the...
