Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is important to establish new therapeutic strategy for prostate cancer since the number of patients is most rapidly increased among all types of cancer disease in these 20 years. Although the androgen ablation therapy is performed as a standard therapy for patients with advanced disease, however, cancer cell finally acquire resistance in most cases, so called Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC). We have succeeded in establishing several CRPC cell lines expressing abundant PSA and AR by using LNCaP cells and shRNA library. We are planning to clarify the mechanisms of androgen-independent growth of prostate cancer cells through the analysis of these cells.
