Abstract:Metastasis in prostate cancer is caused by genetic reprogramming leading to increased cell motility and the formation of invasive structures which allow cells to invade out of the primary tumour in a process known as intravasation. In order to search for novel genes inhibiting invasive phenotypes responsible for intravasation, a genome-wide high throughput short hairpin RNA screen was used to identify genes which suppress aggressive phenotypes in BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia) prostate epithelial cells whe… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
