Figure 1. Disseminated PCa alters BMP expression in HSC/HPCs.

Figure 1

(A) Experimental outline. HSCs (CD150+ Lin CD48 CD41 Sca-1+ cKit+ (SLAM HSCs) or Lin CD48 CD41 Sca-1+ cKit+ (LSK HSCs)/HPCs (Lin CD48 CD41Sca1+) from tumor bearing animals were isolated. Total RNA was extracted and subjected to qRT-PCR for BMP-2 and BMP-6. Relative expression of mRNA was calculated for (B) BMP-2 and (C) BMP-6 and normalized to GAPDH. Data represent mean ± SD performed in triplicate in 3 independent experiments. Level of significance (p<0.001 and p<0.01) were calculated compared to the surgical control treated group.
