GFP-expressing prostate cancer cells demonstrate attenuated tumorigenicity through regulation of energy metabolism, translational activity, and cytoskeletal dynamics: a proteomic study
Abstract:Background
Green Fluorescent Protein is widely used as a cellular marker tool, but its potential influence on cells has been questioned. Although the potential off-target effects of GFP on tumor cells have been studied to some extent, the findings at the molecular level are insufficient to explain the effect of GFP expression on the tumorigenic capacity of cancer cells. Here, we aimed to investigate the effect of GFP expression on the tumorigenicity of PC3 prostate cancer cells.
