2. DU145 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DU145

   DU145, PC3, and LNCaP are considered to be the standard prostate cancer cell lines used in therapeutic research. [ 1 ] The DU145 cell line was derived from a central nervous system metastasis , of primary prostate adenocarcinoma origin, removed during a parieto-occipital craniotomy of a 69-year-old, White, male.

3. PC3 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PC3

   Prostate cancer (PC) is the most common form of non-cutaneous malignant cancer in males, and is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in males. [12] PC3 cells have been utilized to research aggressive and castration-resistant forms of prostate cancer.

   Eventually cancer cells can grow resistant to this treatment. This most-advanced stage of the disease, called castration-resistant prostate cancer, is treated with continued hormone therapy alongside the chemotherapy drug docetaxel. Some tumors metastasize (spread) to other areas of the body, particularly the bones and lymph nodes.

5. Androgen deprivation therapy - Wikipedia

   EMT has established roles in promoting biological phenotypes associated with tumor progression (migration/invasion, tumor cell survival, cancer stem cell-like properties, resistance to radiation and chemotherapy) in multiple human cancer types. NEtD in prostate cancer is associated with resistance to therapy, visceral metastasis, and aggressive ...

6. Sipuleucel-T - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sipuleucel-T

   Sipuleucel-T is indicated for the treatment of metastatic, asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic, metastatic castrate-resistant hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC). Other names for this stage are metastatic castrate-resistant (mCRPC) and androgen independent (AI) or (AIPC).

   [citation needed] Radiotherapy uses ionizing radiation to kill prostate cancer cells. When absorbed in tissue, ionizing radiation such as gamma and x-rays damage the DNA in cancer cells, which increases the probability of apoptosis (cell death). Normal cells are able to repair radiation damage, while cancer cells are not.
