Abstract
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) expression is increas ed in Dunning R-3327 rat prostatic adenocarcinoma cell lines relative to normal rat ventral prostate tissue. GAPDH expression closely correl ates with cell motility of Dunning prostate cancer cell lines and accu rately distinguishes cell lines with high metastatic potential from th ose with low metastatic potential. Increased GAPDH expression in the c ancer cell lines is not simply related to increased growth rate, since rapidly proliferating normal prostate tissue did not exhibit elevated GAPDH expression.
