## Abstract Background: Androgen receptors (AR) are expressed in human prostate cells and immunohistochemistry has been used for qualitative analysis of AR expression in prostate tumor cells. Quantitative and multiparametric analysis of receptor expression could be of diagnostic and prognostic valu

## Abstract UV exposure and serum levels of vitamin D have been linked in several studies with prostate cancer risk. At the cellular level, the principal action of vitamin D is mediated though vitamin D receptors (VDR). Since prostate cancer is a disease strongly associated with age, we examined th
## Abstract Human prostate cancer (PC) overexpresses the gastrinβreleasing peptide receptor (GRPR). Radiolabeled GRPRβtargeting analogs of bombesin (BN) have successfully been introduced as potential tracers for visualization and treatment of GRPRβoverexpressing tumors. A previous study showed GRPR
The data suggest that 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3] and androgens are essential for regulation of growth and differentiation in, e.g., human reproductive tissues. We investigated the possible cross-talk between 1,25(OH)2D3 and androgens in the human ovarian cancer cell line OVCAR-3. Our dat
Primary cultures derived from pre-cancerous and cancerous human colon tissue are essential for understanding normal and abnormal growth function in the large intestine. Here presented are (i) the methodology for routine establishment of primary cultures of normal, adenoma-and carcinomaderived cells,
