    Abstract

    Discovery of Thiohydantoin Based Antagonists of Androgen Receptor with Efficient Degradation for the Treatment of Prostate Cancer

    A series of novel thiohydantoin based androgen receptor (AR) antagonists with efficient degradation against AR were designed, synthesized, and evaluated

    Abstract

    Mechanistic Insights into Harmine-Mediated Inhibition of Human DNA Methyltransferases and Prostate Cancer Cell Growth

    Cell-based studies showed that harmine treatment inhibits CRPC cell proliferation with an IC50 of ∼14 μM. The CPRC cells treated with harmine resulted in reactivating silenced hypermethylated genes compared to the untreated cells

    Abstract

    Elevated PSPC1 and KDM5C Expression Indicates Poor Prognosis in Prostate Cancer

    Scientists identified Paraspeckle Component 1 (PSPC1) as an interacting protein of Lysine Demethylase 5C (KDM5C), suggesting that these proteins might function together in prostate cancer.

    Abstract

    Gleason Score-Related MT1L as Biomarker for Prognosis in Prostate Adenocarcinoma and Contribute to Tumor Progression In Vitro

    To determine the clinical significance and function of Gleason-Score-related genes in prostate adenocarcinoma, prostate cancer cell lines were cultured and transfected with Gleason-Score-related genes to explore the function of MT1L in vitro.
