This book was released on 2013-05-29 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In humans, the natural history of prostate cancer spans 30–40 years, which makes it a difficult disease to model in rodents. Furthermore, the molecular pathology of prostate cancer responsible for tumor initiation and progression is complex and often redundant. The sequential changes in oncogene and tumor suppressor gene expression during prostate cancer progression have not been fully delineated. Despite these issues, there are model systems, including carefully designed orthotopic xenograft models, that provide robust platforms for drug evaluation and studying the effects of diet and environmental stress on prostate carcinogenesis. Comprehensive transgenic and knockout models have also been developed that recapitulate individual steps in tumor initiation and metastatic progression and highlight the importance of the tumor microenvironment. While very few of the transgenic and knockout systems recapitulate the entire natural history of prostate cancer, individual model systems provide valuable genetic insight into the biological consequences of disrupting prostate homeostasis.

Book Signal Transduction Based Mouse Models of Prostate Cancer

Download or read book Signal Transduction Based Mouse Models of Prostate Cancer written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These studies aimed to create a prostate cancer mouse model consortium. The overall objective of this study is to determine the mechanisms governing prostate cancer genesis and progression thereby leading to a better understanding and treatment for this disease. The studies brought together investigators at distinct institutions (Albert Einstein College of Medicine (AECOM) Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC), Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center- Harvard/Massachusetts Institute of Technology Health Sciences and Technology, HMS/MIT) and UC Davis to develop and share a) mouse models engineered through sharing distinct models generated by each program member b) software technology that will allow for the simultaneous analysis of histopathology and genetic composition of the emerging murine prostate tumors at the different institutions c) software technology for functional clustering of data derived from microarray analysis of tumor samples.

Book A Mouse Model for Prostate Cancer

Download or read book A Mouse Model for Prostate Cancer written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mouse models of carcinogenesis have provided significant insights into the molecular mechanisms of tumor suppressor gene function. Our goal is to develop mouse models that recapitulate early stages of prostate carcinoma. Using such models we have demonstrated that the Nkx3.1 homeobox gene represents a prostate-specific tumor suppressor that undergoes epigenetic inactivation through loss of protein expression. Loss-of-function of Nkx3.1 in mice results in histopathological defects that resembles prostate cancer initiation in humans, and cooperates with loss-of-function of the Pten tumor suppressor gene in cancer progression. Furthermore, our findings suggest that the molecular mechanisms that mediate this cooperativity include the synergistic activation of Akt (protein kinase B), a key modulator of cell growth and survival. We propose that interactions between tissue-specific regulators such as Nkx3.1 and broad-spectrum tumor suppressors such as Pten underlie the distinct phenotypes of different cancers.
