Microarray data from simple and effective differentiation-switching model using long-term-expanded prostate primary cells

We developed a long-term expansion method for primary prostate cells using a set of compounds. Moreover, we established a simple and effective epithelial differentiation method by simply removing the compounds. As a benefit of this convenient differentiation-switching technique, we obtained microarray data comparing each differentiation state and confirmed many genes that determine differentiation states at the cellular level. This culturing method can be useful in future epithelial cell biology, physiology, and regeneration research. Microarray data sets were obtained from primary human prostate epithelial cells (PrEC, donor1) cultivated in YDAC-containing F medium and in YDAC removed F medium for 2 days (Pre and 48H, respectively)
