Introducing our Prostate Cancer Cells Lines

 Check out the Options

Neuromics is pleased to introduce many of the top human prostate cancer cell lines to our already expansive selection of cell offerings. To complement the DU 145 cells we added earlier this year, Neuromics is now offering VcaP, LNCaP, and PC-3 cells to complete our catalog of human prostate cancer cell lines.

VCaP cells are known for their high androgen receptor and PSA expression. Unlike most other prostate cancer cell lines, LNCaP cells are highly sensitive to androgens and have a low tumorigenicity. Meanwhile, PC-3 cells are noted for their high metastatic potential along with their insensitivity to androgens and fibroblast growth factors. Lastly, DU 145 cells are not hormone-sensitive and do not express PSA.
