An in vitro system to characterize prostate cancer progression identified signaling required for self-renewal.

abstract：:Increasing evidence from recent research suggests a connection between cancer and a deranged equilibrium of histone acetylation, which is maintained by two competing enzymatic activities, histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs). It is our hypothesis that a significant proportion of leukemias...
