    The
    PSMA Targeting Half-Life Extended BiTE® Therapy AMG 160 Has Potent Antitumor Activity in Preclinical Models of Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

    Researchers developed AMG 160, a half-life extended bispecific T-cell engager immuno-oncology therapy that bound prostate-specific membrane antigen on prostate cancer cells and CD3 on T cells for treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

    Ferroptosis
    Inducers Are a Novel Therapeutic Approach for Advanced Prostate Cancer

    Investigators demonstrated that mediators of ferroptosis were expressed in treatment-resistant prostate cancer. They further demonstrated that treatment-resistant prostate cancer cells were sensitive to two ferroptosis inducers.

    Large
    Remodeling of the Myc-Induced Cell Surface Proteome in B Cells and Prostate Cells Creates New Opportunities for Immunotherapy

    To identify how MYC overexpression remodels the cell surface proteome in a cell autologous fashion and in different cell types, scientists investigated the impact of MYC overexpression on 800 surface proteins in three isogenic model cell lines either of B cell or prostate cell origin engineered to have high or low MYC levels.

    Psoralea corylifolia
    L. Extract Ameliorates Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia by Regulating Prostate Cell Proliferation and Apoptosis

    The authors demonstrated the effect of Psoralea corylifolia L. seed against benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), mediated by the regulation of prostate cell proliferation and apoptosis, in dihydrotestosterone -stimulated normal human prostate cell lines and testosterone propionate-induced BPH rat.
