The mystery behind the abnormally high levels of pro-growth protein Stat5 in castrate-resistant metastatic prostate cancer cells has now been finally solved by a group of investigators. They discovered that the gene that makes the protein is amplified - duplicated many times over - in these cancer cells, which allows them to produce excess amounts of the oncogenic protein. The study, reported in the May 7 issue of the iAmerican Journal of Pathology/i, found ...Saturday, 11 May 2013
