  • Title: [In vitro models for research on cell differentiation and malignant degeneration in the human prostate].
    Author: Bozhok IuM, Kireeva SS, Varga SV.
    Journal: Eksp Onkol; 1985; 7(1):15-21. PubMed ID: 2579792.
    Abstract:
    The methods are reviewed for obtaining monolayer epithelium cultures both in normal and hyperplastic or malignant prostate glands. Preparation of pure epithelial tissue cultures is dealt with in detail. The major prostate cell lines are described. Special attention is paid to the markers of differentiation and sensitivity to hormones in normal and tumour prostatic cells in vitro. Prospects for the use of prostatic cell cultures as models in oncology are outlined.
