ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To search for a new diagnostic biomarker for prostate cancer by comparing the differences in the expressions of netrin-1 and UNC5B in prostate cancer cells with different invasive abilities.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We examined the expressions of netrin-1 and UNC5B in five prostate cancer cell lines DU145, 22RV1, PC3, PC3M and RWPE-1 using RT-PCR and Western blot, and positioned the ligands netrin-1 and its receptor UNC5B in the prostate cancer cells by immunofluorescence.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Both netrin-1 and UNC5B were expressed in the prostate cancer cells, and the expression of netrin-1 was significantly increased in highly invasive cells (P < 0.05), while that of UNC5B in RWPE-1 (normal) cells (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The expressions of netrin-1 and UNC5B are closely related to the infiltration and progression of prostate cancer, and expected to be as potential biomarkers for predicting the malignancy degree of prostate cancer.</p>
