 | African Americans(AA) have twice the incidence and mortality of prostate (PC) than Caucasian Americans (CA). While the disproportionate burden was partially explained by genetic, socioeconomic, and environmental factors, racial variation in the biology of prostate tumors was not investigated. We employed an unbiased functional genomics approach to identify genes differentially expressed in freshly procured prostate tumor cells of age- and tumor grade-matched AA and CA men. Laser capture microdissected (LCM)-procured ... |

| We propose to identify the functional characterization of two novel cancer-specific, metastasis-related genes whose constitutive expression may be pivotal for prostate cancer progression. Due to hurricane Katrina, we were able to replace our DNA constructs, cell lines, frozen tissue sections, cell lines, research supplies. In addition, we were able to replace our laboratory personnel including a postdoctoral fellow in May of 2007. Since then we were able to re-generate Seq1 ... |
