Genetically engineered mouse models have been generated to study the molecular basis of prostate cancer (PCa) development, progression, and metastasis. Selection of a prostate-specific promoter, such as the probasin (PB) and prostate specific antigen (PSA) promoters, is critical for generating suffi

Reduction in apoptosis has been associated with tumor metastases and response to chemotherapy in breast cancer. We examine the influence of apoptosis status and the expression of antiapoptotic proteins Bcl-2 and Bcl-x(L) on metastatic progression and response to therapy in an experimental model of b
For transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder, clinical data indicate that invasive, metastatic tumors can arise through at least two different progression pathways. The majority of invasive, metastatic bladder neoplasms clinically present de novo, i.e., the patients have no history of malignant bl
