Sentence examples for rat prostate epithelial from inspiring English sources

To test this, we inoculated 1×104 colony-forming units (CFU) of the gram-negative bacteria E.coli, which are responsible for up to 80% of the bacterial prostatitis in humans, to the primary culture of rat prostate epithelial cells and found no bacterial colony growth in the collected medium, indicating bactericidal capacity of the epithelial cells.

McKeehan, W. L., Adams, P. S. & Rosser, M. P. Direct mitogenic effects of insulin, epidermal growth factor, glucocorticoid, cholera toxin, unknown pituitary factors and possibly prolactin, but not androgen, on normal rat prostate epithelial cells in serum-free, primary cell culture.

We further confirmed CFTR expression in a primary culture of rat prostate epithelial cells.

While both in vitro and in vivo experiments on rat prostate epithelial cells strongly indicated that the CFTR-mediated HCO3− secretion is enhanced in prostatitis, which has bactericidal capacity, it remains to be confirmed that this host defense mechanism is also present in human prostate.

Stimulation of LNCaP cell growth by RAR analog [ 33] and over-expression of RAR α in tumorigenic rat prostate epithelial cells [ 14] support the above notion.

Stimulation of RAR α and γ mRNA in LNCaP cells by T differed from that in normal rat prostate and non-tumorigenic rat prostate epithelial cells (NRP-152), but was comparable to that in tumorigenic rat prostate epithelial cells (NRP-154)[ 13, 14].

Furthermore, in rat prostatic epithelial cells, Smad2 was shown to be critical for the proapoptotic effect of TGFβ in a premalignant basal cell line (NRP152), while Smad3 mediated the apoptotic response in a malignant luminal carcinoma cell line (NRP154) derived from the same rat prostate [ 43].

Arecoline treatment of diabetic rats demonstrated ventral prostate epithelial cells with large euchromatic nucleus and abundance of SER), which is almost similar to that of the control or arecoline-treated prostate cells of normal rats.

In this study, both in vitro and in vivo experiments have demonstrated that prostatic epithelial cells have bactericidal activities, which are largely dependent on CFTR-mediated HCO3− secretion since inhibitor of either CFTR or CAII greatly attenuates bacterial killing by both the primary prostatic epithelial culture and rat prostate.

Here we show that Wnt signaling regulated prostatic epithelial branching morphogenesis and luminal epithelial cell differentiation in developing rat prostate organ cultures.

When inoculated into nude mice, rat liver epithelial As-transformed cells and human prostate epithelial cells produced invasive xenograft tumors (Achanzar et al. 2002; Zhao et al. 1997).
