Effects of far-infrared rays on 3 human prostate cancer cell lines

ABSTRACT: We introduce anticancer effect of the far-infrared rays. The growth of three human prostate cancer cells (DU145, PC-3 and LNCaP) was suppressed in vitro only by far-infrared rays. The far-infrared rays induced the gene activation involved in apoptosis that exert positive effects on cancer control. Shima, H. et al. Far-infrared rays control prostate cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. Nature Precedings, hdl:10101/npre.12008.11980.10101 (2008). Keywords: cancer control Twelve samples were analyzed. Each sample was cultured quadricate. One replicate per array. The DU145, PC-3 and LNCaP cell lines were obtained from American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA, USA). DU145 cells were maintained in minimum essential medium supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum, 2 mM L-glutam
