Query: Genomic Analyses of the Metastasis-derived LNCaP, VCaP, and PC3-AR Prostate Cancer Cell Lines The lymph node metastasis-derived LNCaP, the bone metastasis-derived PC3 (skull), and VCaP (vertebral) cell lines are widely used preclinical models of human prostate cancer (CaP) and have been described in >19,000 publications. Here, we report on short-read whole-genome sequencing and genomic analyses of LNCaP, VCaP, and PC3 cells stably transduced with WT AR (PC3-AR). LNCaP cells are composed of multiple subpopulations, which results in non-integral copy number states and a high mutational load when the data is analyzed in bulk. All three cell lines contain pathogenic mutations and homozygous deletions in genes involved in DNA mismatch repair, along with deleterious mutations in cellcycle, Wnt signaling, and other cellular processes. Furthermore, LNCaP cells contain a missense mutation in a well-known CaP hotspot of TP53, whereas both PC3-AR and VCaP have truncating mutations in TP53 and do not express p53 protein. In addition, we detect the signatures of chromothripsis of the q arms of chromosome 5 in both PC3-AR and VCaP cells, strengthening the association of TP53 inactivation with chromothripsis reported in other systems. Our work provides a resource for genetic, genomic, and biological studies employing these commonly-used prostate cancer cell lines.
