Prostate epithelial cell of origin determines cancer differentiation state in an organoid transformation assay
4 Apr 2016
Abstract excerpt
The cell of origin for prostate cancer remains a subject of debate. Genetically engineered mouse models have demonstrated that both basal and luminal cells can serve as cells of origin for prostate cancer. Using a human prostate regeneration and transformation assay, our group previously demonstrated that basal cells can serve as efficient targets for transformation. Recently, a subpopulation of multipotent human...
