Abstract:
A method is described for the immunostaining of human prostate cancer biopsies for the autophagic marker LC3 and the lysosomal protein LAMP2A. Using this combination we can provide some information on autophagic flux, and specific patterns of staining have been recognized for normal prostate tissue and prostatic carcinomas.
