    Abstract

    Taxanes Sensitize Prostate Cancer Cells to TRAIL-Induced Apoptotic Synergy via Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress

    Investigators sensitized androgen-independent and TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL)-resistant prostate cancer cells to TRAIL-mediated apoptosis via taxane therapy and examined the mechanism of sensitization.

    Abstract

    Upregulation of Glucocorticoid Receptor-Mediated Glucose Transporter 4 in Enzalutamide-Resistant Prostate Cancer

    Inhibition of glucocorticoid receptor‐mediated glucose transporter 4 suppressed cell proliferation in enzalutamide (Enz)‐resistant prostate cancer cells, which recovered from Enz resistance and cross‐resistance without changes in glucocorticoid receptor expression.

    Abstract

    Discovery of a Novel AR/HDAC6 Dual Inhibitor for Prostate Cancer Treatment

    Given that both androgen receptor (AR) antagonists and histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitors modulate AR signaling, a novel AR/HDAC6 dual inhibitor was investigated for its anticancer effects in castration-resistant prostate cancer.

    Abstract

    The Role of Opiorphin Genes in Prostate Cancer Growth and Progression

    Researchers investigated a role for opiorphin genes in prostate cancer (PrCa). Databases and PrCa tissue arrays were screened for opiorphin expression.
