Prostate Cancer Cells

NCATS experts helped NIH-supported scientists use a new approach to find drugs that may help prevent the spread of prostate cancer. The top image shows antibodies (labeled with a red dye) that target CD63, a protein found on exosomes. The bottom image shows an advanced prostate cancer cell line that has been genetically engineered to turn on a protein that glows green and attaches to CD63.
