Abstract:254 Background: Development of aggressive variants of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (AVPC) is a major challenge in the course of therapy but the underlying mechanisms of aggressive transdifferentiation are not completely understood and appropriate tumor models are missing. Here, we investigated the consequences of long-term taxane exposure on hormone-independent, BRCA2-mutated, AR-V7-positive 22Rv1 cells. Methods: 22Rv1 cells were treated with stepwise increased taxane concentrations for 10 … Show more
