An increasingly aged population and better diagnosis has lead to an apparent increase in the prevalence of prostate cancer in men. There is an acute need to better understand the progression of this disease from its locally confined site of initiation to the end stage widely metastatic disease with attendant morbidity and mortality. It has historically been difficult to raise and maintain immortalised prostate cell lines in culture. We have derived a cell line selected from the group consisting of clones ONYCAP 1 and ONYCAP23. The cell lines are characterised as being prostate epithelial in origin.

Le vieillissement de la population et l'amélioration des procédés de diagnostic ont mené à une apparente augmentation des cas de cancer de la prostate. Il existe de ce fait un besoin pressant de mieux comprendre l'évolution de cette maladie depuis son site de départ confiné localement jusqu'à une maladie en phase terminale largement métastatique, avec morbidité et mortalité à l'avenant. Il a été jusqu'à présent difficile d'élever et d'entretenir dans une culture une lignée de cellules prostatiques. Nous avons dérivé une lignée cellulaire sélectionnée dans le groupe constitué de clones ONYCAP 1 et ONYCAP23. Ces lignées cellulaires sont caractérisées en ce qu'elles sont d'origine prostatique épithéliale.
