Prostate cancer preferentially metastasizes to bone, resulting in high mortality. Strategies to inhibit prostate cancer metastasis include targeting both tumor-induced osteoblastic lesions and underlying osteoclastic activities. We and others have previously shown that blocking receptor activator of nuclear factor-KB ligand (RANKL) partially blocks tumor establishment and progression in bone in...

Monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) is a member of the chemokine family of cytokines which are involved in leukocyte physiology and trafficking. Interest in the role of inflammatory cells and their cytokine products in luteolysis has been increasing and there is mounting evidence demonstrating that MCP-1 is involved in luteolysis. Cell sources of MCP-1, such as endothelial cells, are abu...
