## Background: An animal model of human prostate cancer lncap demonstrating high rates of spontaneous metastasis from the orthotopic site after tumor implantation would be very valuable for mechanistic and drug discovery studies. we previously developed microsurgical techniques to implant histologi

## Background: We sought to determine whether more than one freeze/thaw cycle is required and what minimum temperature reliably kills prostate cancer in vivo. ## Methods: Two human prostate cancer cell lines (lncap and pc3) were implanted subcutaneously in male nude balb/c mice. tumors were froze
A human prostate cancer model was established by inoculating a prostate specific antigen (PSA)-producing LNCaP cell line with either prostate or bone fibroblasts. Alternatively, this human prostate cancer model can also be established by inoculating LNCaP cells with growth factor(s) (GFs) and extrac
