Research Abstract |
The aim of this research is to analyze whether a nuclear matrix protein, Purine-element binding protein alpha(PURA), is useful for exploration for a new molecular target of hormone refractory prostate cancer. Overexpression of PURA obviously lowered the growth speed of PC3 cells in vivo, and by immunohistochemistry, Ki67 expression was weaker in PC3 cells with PURA overexpression than in control PC3 cells. And we have established tissue microarray, including 22 cases of castration resistant prostate cancer, which were obtained by TUR. Using this microarray, we are planning to ask how those expression changes with progression of prostate cancer.
