MAD-CT-1
and MAD-CT-2 are predominantly expressed in testis and are expressed
in some prostate cancer tissues. (A) Gene-specific primers
for MAD-CT-1, MAD-CT-2, or actin were used to detect transcript
in cDNA samples obtained from normal human liver, lung, testis,
colon, bladder, prostate, heart, brain, kidney, placenta, skeletal
muscle, spleen or thymus (Biochain, Hayward, CA, USA). (B) Gene-specific
primers were used to amplify MAD-CT-1, MAD-CT-2, or actin from
cDNA specimens derived from metastatic prostate cancer tissue
specimens (n = 10). A plus sign indicates a positive control
using plasmid DNA encoding either MAD-CT-1 or MAD-CT-2 as template
DNA. A minus sign indicates a negative control using nonspecific
plasmid DNA as template DNA. |
