To determine if the activin/follistatin system is present in human prostate tissue and primary cultures of prostatic epithelium and if these growth factors play a role in the control of epithelial cell growth. Cells derived directly from human prostates were studied to determine: a) if they secrete activin and follistatin, and b) if they are growth inhibited by activin. Primary cell cultures were...
Growth and development of the prostate are androgen dependent and mainly influenced by stromal-epithelial interaction. It is believed that indirect androgenic activation of paracrine factors like keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) in the prostatic stroma influences the growth of epithelial cells. In this study we investigated the role androgen plays in stromal cell growth and stimulation of KGF in the...
