Figure 6From: Activation of the hedgehog pathway in advanced prostate cancerCellular functions of the hedgehog pathway in prostate cancer cells. Expression of hedgehog target genes, PTCH1 and Gli1, were detected by real-time PCR (A). DNA synthesis was detected by BrdU labeling (B). Over 1000 cells were counted under fluorescent microscope for the percentage of BrdU positive cells, and the experiment was repeated twice (C).Back to article page
