前列腺癌干细胞研究进展

Research advancement of prostate cancer stem cells

近年来,对于前列腺癌的起源有了新的认识,认为前列腺癌就是一种干细胞疾病。前列腺癌干细胞与前列腺癌的形成、发展、复发、转移和耐药等密切相关。随着科学技术的进步,对前列腺癌干细胞的分离和相关表型的鉴定等方面的研究,加深了对前列腺癌干细胞的认识,亦为临床前列腺癌的诊治开辟了一条新路。

In recent years, there is some new recognition about the origin of prostatic carcinoma, prostatic carcinoma has been considered as a stem cell disease. Prostate cancer stem cells have close relationship with prostatic carcinoma formation, advancement, relapse, metastasis and drug resistance. As the development of science and technology continues, studies on the isolation and correlated phenotype identification of prostate cancer stem cells have lead us to further recognize prostate cancer stem cells, as well pave a new way for the diagnosis and therapy of clinical prostatic carcinoma.
