    Myeloid-Like Tumor Hybrid Cells in Bone Marrow Promote Progression of Prostate Cancer Bone Metastasis

    Researchers identified a unique cluster of cancer cells in prostate cancer bone metastases, which expressed myeloid cell markers and showed a significant change in pathways related to immune regulation and tumor progression.

    Therapeutic Blocking of VEGF Binding to Neuropilin-2 Diminishes PD-L1 Expression to Activate Antitumor Immunity in Prostate Cancer

    Investigators reported that neuropilin-2, which functioned as a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor on tumor cells, was an attractive target to activate antitumor immunity in prostate cancer.

    Abstract

    γδ-Enriched CAR-T Cell Therapy for Bone Metastatic Castrate-Resistant Prostate Cancer

    Scientists reported a combinatorial strategy to treat bone metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer using γδ-enriched chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells and zoledronate.

    Combating Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer by Co-Targeting the Epigenetic Regulators EZH2 and HDAC

    The authors reported that combined EZH2/HDAC inhibitors potently kill castration-resistant prostate cancers (CRPCs) and caused dramatic tumor regression in aggressive human and mouse CRPC models.

    Prognostic Impact of Kallikrein-Related Peptidase Transcript Levels in Prostate Cancer

    Scientists studied mRNA levels and prognostic impact of all 15 human kallikrein-related peptidases and their targets, proteinase-activated receptors, in surgically treated prostate cancer.

    SALL4 Correlates with Proliferation, Metastasis, and Poor Prognosis in Prostate Cancer by Affecting MAPK Pathway

    The authors performed RNA-sequencing to compare the mRNA expression profiles of seven localized prostate cancer (PCa) tissues and six metastatic PCa tissues. Spalt-like transcription factor 4 (SALL4) was then identified and compared in the localized PCa and metastatic PCa.

    Upregulation of TLR5 Indicates a Favorable Prognosis in Prostate Cancer

    Investigators showed that toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5), among other TLRs, was exceedingly expressed in human prostate cancer cells. TLR5 functioned to activate the TLR5 signaling pathway in human prostate cancer cells
