Abstract

Controversies remain regarding the precise cell type from which prostate cancers originate. In the last 2 years, two separate studies have arrived at apparently conflicting models for the cell type involved in prostate cancer initiation. However, these results are not mutually exclusive: there are potential solutions, and alternative views on the initiating cell derivation of prostate tumors also exist.
