    BCAS2,
    a Protein Enriched in Advanced Prostate Cancer, Interacts with NBS1 to Enhance DNA Double-Strand Break Repair

    Western blotting and immunofluorescence microscopy were used to assay the roles of breast cancer amplified sequence 2 (BCAS2) in the double-strand breaks of prostate cancer cells and apoptosis in Drosophila, respectively.

    The
    miR-361-3p Increases Enzalutamide (Enz) Sensitivity via Targeting the ARv7 and MKNK2 to Better Suppress the Enz-Resistant Prostate Cancer

    Researchers identified a microRNA, miR-361-3p, whose expression is lower in patients with recurrent prostate cancer, could function via binding to the 3′UTR of ARv7, but not the wild type of androgen receptor, to suppress its expression to increase the Enz sensitivity.

    SFMBT2-Mediated Infiltration of Preadipocytes and TAMs in Prostate Cancer

    Researchers investigated whether the down-regulation of Scm-like with four mbt domains 2 (SFMBT2) regulated the infiltration of preadipocytes and tumor-associated macrophages in prostate cancer.

    Exerts an Anti-Cancer Effect by Dual-Targeting AKT and AR Signaling in Prostate Cancer

    Investigators evaluated the effect of seahorse on human prostate cancer using various in vitro methods and identified bioactive compound. Seahorse lipid extract decreased androgen receptor and prostate-specific antigen expression in dihydrotestosterone-induced LNCaP cells of prostate cancer.
