|
| The authors investigated the effect of exogenous chemerin on human prostate and sarcoma tumor lines. Key signaling pathway components were elucidated using qPCR, Western blotting, siRNA knockdown, and specific inhibitors. [Clinical Cancer Research] |
|
|
|
| Scientists found that KDM4B was overexpressed in enzalutamide-resistant prostate cancer cells. Overexpression of KDM4B promoted recruitment of androgen receptor to the c-Myc gene enhancer and induced H3K9 demethylation. [Journal of Pathology] |
|
|
|
| Functional effects of the four MiCaP miRNAs were assessed by overexpression and inhibition experiments in prostate cancer cell lines. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| Researchers report a novel synthetic lethal interaction between inhibitors of O-GlcNAc transferase and CDK9 that specifically killed prostate cancer cells but not normal cells. [Molecular Cancer Research] |
|
|
|
| Two different stabilized cell lines of androgen-resistant prostate cancer were treated with the conditioned media produced by extracorporeal shock waves-treated carcinoma-associated fibroblasts. [Prostate] |
|
|
|
| Investigators determined the anti-neoplastic activity of Cediranib, a pan-vascular endothelial growth factor receptor inhibitor, in the metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer cell lines. [European Journal of Pharmacology] |
|
|
|
| Cell viability test was performed for the ceramics on Vero cells, and their antitumor activity was determined by a PC3 cell line. [Life Sciences] |
|
|
|
| Endothelial cells and epithelial cells were isolated from seven fresh human prostate tissue specimens and from primary tissue xenografts established from nine fresh human prostate tissue specimens. [PLoS One] |
|
|
|
| To imitate the relationship between cancer cells and tumor-associated macrophages, investigators co-cultured macrophages with etoposide-treated PC3 cells. [Cell Biology International] |
|
|
|
|
| The authors present publications demonstrating cytolytic properties against tumor cells of members belonging to the cecropin family, as well as synthesized cecropin B with the introduced modification of its sequence and conjugated cecropin B with a modified luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone.

|
| Ipsen announced it will join the Exelixis and Roche clinical collaboration and participate in the funding of the recently initiated CONTACT-01 and CONTACT-02 global Phase III pivotal trials. [Ipsen Pharma] |

|
|
| Academics in Hong Kong are facing new worries after the mainland government abruptly imposed a controversial new security law that critics say could infringe on human rights and chill academic freedom. [ScienceInsider] |
|
|
|
| The UK government plans to set up an “office for talent” to oversee visas and make it easier to attract top scientists after Brexit, according to an R&D road map. [ScienceInsider] |
