Prostate Cancer Cells and Bone Stromal Cells Mutually Interact with Each Other through Bone Morphogenetic Protein-mediated Signals
25 Apr 2012
Abstract excerpt
Functional interactions between cancer cells and the bone microenvironment contribute to the development of bone metastasis. Although the bone metastasis of prostate cancer is characterized by increased ossification, the molecular mechanisms involved in this process are not fully understood. Here, the roles of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) in the interactions between prostate cancer cells and bone stromal...
