Abstract

Distinct translocation mechanisms and additional translocation partners for ETS genes are found in prostate cancer. This study also provides the first functional evidence that ETS gene deregulation can promote cancer cell invasion in cell lines and pre-malignant prostate lesions in a transgenic mouse model.
