Human benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) nodules consist of epithelium and stroma that have different properties functionally as well as morphologically. To investigate the molecular profiles of the prostate gland, separate examination of these components are necessary. Laser-capture microdissection (LCM) is a newly-developed device which enables one to dissect interesting parts of tissues under the microscope. In the current work we studied the gene expression profiles of prostatic epithelium… CONTINUE READING
