    Supraphysiological Testosterone Induces Ferroptosis and Activates Immune Pathways through Nucleophagy in Prostate Cancer

    Investigators reported that supraphysiological levels of testosterone (SupraT) activated cytoplasmic nucleic acid sensors and induced growth inhibition of SupraT-sensitive prostate cancer cells.

    Targeting KDM6A Suppresses SREBP1c-Dependent Lipid Metabolism and Prostate Tumorigenesis

    Scientists reported that specific homozygous deletion of KDM6A in the adult mouse prostate epithelium strongly inhibited tumor progression initiated by the homozygous loss of PTEN. Mechanistically, KDM6A promoted prostate tumorigenesis and lipid metabolism by binding to the SREBP1c promoter which resulted in increased SREBP1c transcription.

    Abstract

    AXL Cooperates with EGFR to Mediate Neutrophil Elastase-Induced Migration of Prostate Cancer Cells

    Researchers reported that neutrophil elastase triggered dose-dependent ERK signaling and cell migration in a panel of prostate cell lines that represented the spectrum of prostate cell malignancy.

    OXER1 Mediates Testosterone-Induced Calcium Responses in Prostate Cancer Cells

    The authors reported that testosterone, independently of the presence of the classical androgen receptor, rapidly increased intracellular calcium from calcium stores, through the oxoeicosanoid receptor 1 (OXER1) and a signaling cascade that triggered calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum.

    Abstract

    Mechanisms of Abemaciclib, a CDK4/6 Inhibitor, Induced Apoptotic Cell Death in Prostate Cancer Cells In Vitro

    Investigators analyzed in vitro cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of abemaciclib on metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer androgen receptor negative PC-3 and AR mutant LNCaP prostate cancer cells.

    Dual Akt and Bcl-2 Inhibition Induces Cell-Type Specific Modulation of Apoptotic and Autophagic Signaling in Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer Cell Lines

    The authors elucidated the modulation patterns between apoptosis and autophagy following dual inhibition by Akt inhibitor erufosine and Bcl-2 inhibitor ABT-737 in castration-resistant prostate cancer cell lines, PC-3 and DU-145.

    Abstract

    Reorganization of the 3D Genome Pinpoints Non-coding Drivers of Primary Prostate Tumors

    Scientists investigated the molecular mech­­anisms of long non‑coding RNA small nucleolar RNA host gene 16 in the proliferation and metastasis of prostate cancer cells.
