On the basis of increasing roles for HDM2 oncoprotein in cancer growth and progression, we speculated that HDM2 might play a major role in hypoxia-induced metastatic process. For verification of this hypothesis, wild-type LNCaP prostate cancer cells and HDM2 transfected LNCaP-MST (HDM2 stably transfected) cells were studied. The data obtained from our experiments revealed that the HDM2 transfec...
Human prostate tumor growth in athymic mice: inhibition by androgens and stimulation by finasteride.
When the human prostate cancer cell line, LNCaP 104-S, the growth of which is stimulated by physiological levels of androgen, is cultured in androgen-depleted medium for > 100 passages, the cells, now called LNCaP 104-R2, are proliferatively repressed by low concentrations of androgens. LNCaP 104-R2 cells formed tumors in castrated male athymic nude mice. Testosterone propionate (TP) treatment ...
BACKGROUND Glucan is an immunomodulating agent used for cancer therapy. We investigated the effects of glucan on immune cell response to prostate carcinoma. METHODS Dendritic cells (DC) were co-cultured with prostate carcinoma cells LNCaP and/or glucan, and maturation markers expression, cytokine release, and superoxide anion production were evaluated. Conditioned media from glucan-treated or...
Cell lines derived from human prostate cancer are regarded as relatively resistant to both radiation-induced clonogenic death and apoptosis. Here we attempted to modulate the response of LNCaP prostate cancer cells to radiation therapy (XRT) by pretreatment with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol acetate (TPA), a known apoptogenic agent in LNCaP cells. Using plateau-phase cultures, we investigated the r...
Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is the first defined histone demethylase, and was found to be closely correlated with the development and progression of various types of cancers, including prostate cancer (PCa). Previous research suggests that LSD1 is closely related with cell proliferation, angiogenesis, migration and invasion in PCa. However, it remains to be elucidated whether LSD1 is c...
The goal of this study is to investigate the molecular mechanisms of androgen-independent growth in prostate cancer. We have established an androgen-independent prostatic carcinoma LNCaP-AI (defined as a LNCaP cell line that is capable of growing in charcoal-stripped serum) from the androgen-dependent LNCaP-FGC cells. In contrast to the androgen-independent PC-3 human prostate cancer cells, LNC...
BACKGROUND Conversion into androgen-hypersensitive state and adaptation to the low concentration of androgen during ADT cause relapse of prostate cancer (PCa). It is important to identify differentially expressed genes between PCa and normal prostate tissues and to reveal the function of these genes that are involved in progression of PCa. METHODS We performed cDNA microarray analysis to iden...
NAG-1 (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug-activated gene), a member of TGF beta superfamily, is involved in cellular processes such as inflammation, apoptosis/survival, and tumorigenesis and is regulated by p53, Sp1, and Egr-1. In the current study, the regulation of NAG-1 expression in LNCaP human prostate carcinoma cells by TPA (12O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate) was examined. TPA treatmen...
We find that the prostate cancer cell lines ALVA-31, PC-3, and DU 145 are highly sensitive to apoptosis induced by TRAIL (tumor-necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand), while the cell lines TSU-Pr1 and JCA-1 are moderately sensitive, and the LNCaP cell line is resistant. LNCaP cells lack active lipid phosphatase PTEN, a negative regulator of the phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase/Akt...
One of the mechanisms through which advanced prostate cancer (PCa) usually relapses after androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is the adaptation to residual androgens in PCa tissue. It has been observed that androgen biosynthesis in PCa tissue plays an important role in this adaptation. In the present study, we investigated how stromal cells affect adrenal androgen dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) m...
