We analyzed blood plasma concentrations of matrix metalloproteinase-1 and -3 (MMP-1; MMP-3), the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) and the complex MMP-1/ TIMP-1, and looked for any correlation with prostate cancer stage. These components were measured by ELISA tests specific for these
We are interested in studying the possibility of modulating prostatic cell growth by manipulating apoptosis. Here we show that 1 pM staurosporine (STS) induces a human androgen-independent prostatic tumor cell line, DU145, to undergo dramatic changes in morphology and results in programmed cell deat
