The authors have previously shown that the type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) is decreased in the transformation from benign to malignant human prostate epithelial cells in vivo. Further, in a well-described human SV40-T immortalized human epithelial cell system beginning with the immortalized, but rarely tumorigenic P69SV40-T cell line, to the highly tumorigenic and metastatic M12 subline, there is a similar decrease in IGF-1R number from 2.0×104receptors per cell to 1.1×103receptors per cell. When the IGF-1R was reexpressed in the M12 subline using a retroviral expression vector, M12-LISN, to a receptor number similar to that of the P69SV40-T parental cell line, the authors demonstrated a marked decrease in colony formation in soft agar in the M12-LISN cells vs the M12 control cells (p≤0.01), and a decrease in vivo tumor growth and metastases when injected either subcutaneously or an intraprostatic location (p≤0.01). This decrease in tumor volume was not because of a decrease in proliferative capacity, but was associated with an increase in apoptosis in baseline cultures and in response to the apoptotic-inducing agents 6-hydroxyurea, refinoic acid, and transforming growth factor β1.
