✦ Synopsis

A generally accepted model for the origin of human cancer is that tumours arising from the gut-lining epithelium-the adenomas and carcinomas-are of clonal origin, i.e., they are derived from a single 'abnormal' cell. Recent work has shed considerable light on these matters and suggests that this model may be erroneous and that at least some adenomas are of multiclonal origin. These findings have basic implications for more generalized models of tumourigenesis and for researchers examining the potential clinical value of gene therapy. 1998

Human prostatic carcinoma frequently metastasizes to bone tissue and activates bone metabolism, especially bone formation, at the site of metastasis. It has been reported that an extract of prostatic carcinoma and conditioned medium (CM) of a human prostatic carcinoma cell line, PC-3, established fr
