|
|
| The authors performed a kinome-scale CRISPR/Cas9 screen and identified cyclin-dependent kinase 12 as being conservatively required for prostate cancer cell survival. [Molecular Cancer Therapeutics] |
|
|
|
| Upon employing CCK-8 cell viability assays and colony formation assays, researchers found that indomethacin derivatives had high efficacy against castration-resistant prostate cancer tumor growth in vitro. [Acta Pharmacologica Sinica] |
|
|
|
| Synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro anticancer activity against various human cancer cell lines, including breast and prostate. [Bioorganic Chemistry] |
|
|
|
| Scientists demonstrated that depletion of endogenous JAK1 enhanced docetaxel-induced apoptosis in prostate cancer cells. [Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine] |
|
|
|
| Investigators used flow cytometric analysis, cell viability assay, caspase activity analysis, wound healing assay, confocal microscopy study, and immunofluorescence to investigate the biological effect of high-frequency nanosecond pulses electric fields on prostate cancer cells. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| Since inorganic arsenic targets prostatic stem cells, researchers hypothesized that arsenic-transformed stem cells showed an impaired TLR3-associated anti-tumor pathway and, therefore, were unresponsive to polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid activation. [Molecular Pharmacology] |
|
|
|
| Researchers investigated the effect of Teucrium persicum extract on expression, cellular localization, and transcriptional activity of β-Catenin protein in PC-3 cells. [Nutrition and Cancer] |
|
|
|
| Scientists reported a Phase I–cleared orally bioavailable MTKI, ESK981, with a novel autophagy inhibitory property that decreased tumor growth in diverse preclinical models of castration-resistant prostate cancer. [Nature Cancer] |
| |
|
|
|
| The authors review how canonical functions of Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2 (EZH2) as a histone methyltransferase activity are regulated and describe the various mechanisms of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 recruitment to the chromatin. [Oncogene] |
|
|
|
|
| Ambrx announced the first patient has been dosed in a Phase I, multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation, and dose expansion study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and anti-tumor activity of ARX517 in subjects with prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) expressing tumors found in prostate, pancreatic, lung and ovarian cancers.
