Expression profiling of androgen-dependent and -independent LNCaP cells: EGF versus androgen signalling

Abstract: Prostate cancer development often includes a shift from androgen-dependent to androgenindependent growth. It is hypothesized that, during this transition, growth factors like the epidermal growth factor (EGF) gain importance as activators of tumour cell proliferation. To study this, androgen-and EGF-regulation of growth and gene-expression was analysed in the androgendependent human prostate cancer cell line LNCaP-FGC (FGC) and its androgen-independent derivative line LNCaP-LNO (LNO). It was observed that andr… Show more

“…Even then, depletion of ERG in VCaP cells resulted in only a small increase (<25%) in the androgen-induced expression of genes such as FKBP51, SLC45A3 and TMPRSS2 (Yu et al, 2010). Increased expression of androgen-regulated genes has been previously reported in androgen-independent prostate cancer cells (Gregory et al, 1998;Oosterhoff et al, 2005;Dehm and Tindall, 2006).…”

“…Other regulatory pathways may also be involved. For example, EGF signaling, which downregulates UGT2B17 expression without affecting UGT2B15 in LNCaP cells (23), has been identified as a transduction pathway involved in prostate tumor growth (33,34).…”

“…In the LNCaP cell line, both EGF and androgen could induce cell cycle regulated genes. Of those genes, 75% were the same suggesting EGF can stimulate androgen-regulated genes in the absence of androgen (Oosterhoff et al, 2005).…”
