In fact, we do see similar slowing in the onset kinetics of the currents recorded from the rod ON-BC by single cell as we do by ERG.
RWPE1 cells are derived from normal prostate epithelia and do not express ERG.
In parallel, knock-down of ERG was performed in VCaP cells using an ERG specific siRNA.
Winter was spent doing the dreaded "ergs," short for ergometers, meaning the rowing machine, or playing other sports -- all this while maintaining the high grade point averages required to get into the nation's top colleges.
