BACKGROUND. Following androgen withdrawal, regression of the prostate is characterized by apoptotic cell death. The molecular events governing this process have not been fully characterized. METHODS. Using ethane-1,2-dimethanesulfonate (EDS) to induce androgen ablation, we investigated the role of t
