    Plk1 Inhibitors and Abiraterone Synergistically Disrupt Mitosis and Kill Cancer Cells of Disparate Origin Independently of Androgen Receptor Signaling

    The authors reported that inhibitors of the mitotic regulator polo-like kinase-1 (Plk1), including the Plk1 inhibitor onvansertib, synergized with abiraterone in vitro and in vivo to kill a subset of cancer cells from a wide variety of tumor types in an androgen-independent manner.

    Macromolecular NO-Donor Micelles for Targeted and Augmented Chemotherapy against Prostate Cancer

    A bombesin installed nanoplatform combining the chemotherapeutic mitoxantrone (MTO) and the chemotherapeutic sensitizer of nitric oxide (NO) was developed based on MTO-loaded macromolecular NO-donor-containing polymeric micelles for targeted NO-sensitized chemotherapy against prostate cancer.

    has_circ_0070512 Promotes Prostate Cancer Progression by Regulating the miR-338-3p/Hedgehog Signaling Pathway

    Researchers investigated the effect of hsa_circ_0070512 on the function and mechanism of prostate cancer (PCa). hsa_circ_0070512 was increased in PCa tissues and cells, and was mostly found in the cytoplasm of PCa cells.

    Genetic Profiling of Hormone-Sensitive and Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancers and Identification of Genetic Mutations Prone to Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

    A total of 103 samples were collected, including 62 DNA samples from the tumor tissues of 59 hormone-sensitive prostate cancer patients and 41 cell-free DNA samples from prostate cancer patients at different cancer stages.

    Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase 1 Depletion Suppresses De Novo Fatty Acid Synthesis and Mitochondrial β-Oxidation in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Cells

    By mining public datasets, investigators discovered that the expression of acetyl-CoA carboxylase alpha, which encoded acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1, was highly expressed in human prostate cancer.

    Biphasic Transcriptional and Post-Transcriptional Regulation of MYB by Androgen Signaling Mediates Its Growth Control in Prostate Cancer

    The authors examined the effect of androgen signaling on MYB expression. Paralleling a dichotomous effect on growth, low-dose androgen induced MYB expression at both transcript and protein levels whereas it was suppressed in high-dose androgen-treated cells.

    Blockage of MDM2-Mediated p53 Ubiquitination by Yuanhuacine Restrains the Carcinogenesis of Prostate Carcinoma Cells by Suppressing LncRNA LINC00665

    Researchers showed that yuanhuacine dose-dependently inhibited the proliferation and induced apoptosis of prostate cancer (PCa) cells. Yuanhuacine also restrained the invasion and migration of PCa cells.

    Relationships between Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate and Prostate Cancer

    Prostate cancer is often found in men undergoing holmium laser enucleation of the prostate and can be challenging to manage. Further work is still needed on variables associated with the detection of incidental prostate cancer and strategies to reduce incidental prostate cancer.
