AbstractWhen prostate cancer cells spread to other parts of the body (metastasise), they frequently migrate to the bone. Here they encounter a microenvironment that differs greatly from that in the primary tumour (prostate), namely interactions with bone-specific cells, including fibroblasts. To better understand the contribution of these fibroblasts to tumour progression, it is the aim of the current paper to propagate a biologically relevant fibroblast population that mimics the cellular and molecular profile of fibroblasts as found in the metastatic bone environment in the body. Using three-dimensional (3D) cell culture models, we were able to transform normal fibroblast cells into fibroblasts that express modified protein and gene profiles similar to those found in fibroblasts in the metastatic bone environment in the body. The exploitation of these engineered 3D models could help further unravel the novel biology regulating metastatic growth and the role fibroblasts play in the colonisation process. Elucidation of these processes has the potential to aid in the development of therapies not currently available for late-stage cancers.
