Androgen ablation-induced prostate cancer regression is transient and ends with the regrowth of androgen-independent (AI) tumors. To mimic this evolution in culture, we chronically deprived an androgen-dependent (AD) prostate cancer cell line (LNCaP) of androgen, generating an AI derivative which re

## BACKGROUND. Most prostate cancer cells respond to initial hormonal therapy; however, some of them eventually acquire resistance to the hormonal therapy. Hormone-independent prostate cancer usually exhibits resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Antioxidant systems are known to be involved
