<h4>Purpose</h4>Marked reactive stroma formation, designated as grade 3 reactive stroma, is associated with poor outcome in clinically localized prostate cancer. To understand the biological processes and signaling mechanisms underlying the formation of such reactive stroma, we carried out microarray gene expression analysis of laser-captured reactive stroma and matched normal stroma.<h4>Experimental design</h4>Seventeen cases of reactive stroma grade 3 cancer were used to laser-capture tumor an ...[more]
