Journal ArticleDOI

Prostate-specific deletion of the murine Pten tumor suppressor gene leads to metastatic prostate cancer

TL;DR: Global assessment of molecular changes caused by homozygous Pten deletion identified key genes known to be relevant to human prostate cancer, including those "signature" genes associated with human cancer metastasis.
Journal Article

Prostate-localized and Androgen-regulated Expression of the Membrane-bound Serine Protease TMPRSS2

TL;DR: Results suggest that TMPRSS2 may play a role in prostate carcinogenesis and should be investigated as a diagnostic or therapeutic target for the management of prostate cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cell Autonomous Role of PTEN in Regulating Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Growth

TL;DR: It is shown that castration-resistant growth is an intrinsic property of Pten null prostate cancer (CaP) cells, independent of cancer development stage, with potentially important implications for CaP etiology and therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pten deletion leads to the expansion of a prostatic stem/progenitor cell subpopulation and tumor initiation

TL;DR: Using defined cell lineage markers, it is demonstrated that PTEN negatively regulates p63-positive prostatic basal cell proliferation without blocking differentiation, providing strong evidence that basalcell proliferation can be an initiating event for precancerous lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI

PTENless means more.

TL;DR: The function of PTEN in murine development and its role in regulating stem cell self-renewal and proliferation are focused on and the organomegaly phenotypes associated with Pten tissue-specific deletion are summarized.
