Bacterial Lipopolysaccharide Augmented Malignant Transformation and Promoted the Stemness in Prostate Cancer Epithelial Cells

To study bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cancer stem-like transformation and to investigate the inhibitory effect of Trichostatin A (TSA) on the malignant transformation through targeting p-Stat3 signaling.2D, 3D, and serum-free suspension culture system were used to study LPS-induced malignant transformation in series malignant grade of prostate cancer (PCa) epithelial cells. Flow cytometry assay and RT-PCR were utilized to evaluate...
