    Collagen VI Deposition Mediates Stromal T Cell Trapping through Inhibition of T Cell Motility in the Prostate Tumor Microenvironment

    Researchers showed that Collagen VI (Col VI) deposition correlated with stromal T cell density in human prostate cancer specimens. Motility of CD4+ T cells was completely ablated on purified Col VI surfaces when compared with Fibronectin and Collagen I.

    Critical Role of Antioxidant Programs in Enzalutamide-Resistant Prostate Cancer

    To understand the metabolic alterations involved in enzalutamide resistance, scientists performed metabolomic, transcriptomic, and cistromic analyses of enzalutamide-sensitive and -resistant prostate cancer cells, xenografts, patient-derived organoids, patient-derived explants, and tumors.

    Discovery of ARD-2051 as a Potent and Orally Efficacious Proteolysis Targeting Chimera (PROTAC) Degrader of Androgen Receptor for the Treatment of Advanced Prostate Cancer

    The authors reported the discovery of ARD-2051 as a potent and orally efficacious androgen receptor proteolysis-targeting chimera degrader. ARD-2051 achieves DC50 values of 0.6 nM and Dmax over 90% in inducing AR protein degradation in both the LNCaP and VCaP prostate cancer cell lines.

    Veratramine Inhibits the Cell Cycle Progression, Migration, and Invasion via ATM/ATR Pathway in Androgen-Independent Prostate Cancer

    Scientists investigated the anticancer effects of veratramine on androgen-independent prostate cancer using PC3 and DU145 cell lines, as well as a xenograft mouse model.

    Synthesis and Characterization of a Novel 68Ga-Labeled P-bromobenzyl Lysine-Urea-ODAP PSMA Inhibitor

    Researchers synthesized seven ODAP-Urea-Lys derivatives characterized with p-bromobenzyl group conjugated to lysine. The ligands showed medium-to-high potency, with Ki values ranging from 27.9 nM to 0.94 nM.

    Non-Coding RNAs: Emerging Roles in the Characterization of Immune Microenvironment and Immunotherapy of Prostate Cancer

    Immunotherapy, especially immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), has made great progress in the treatment of various solid tumors, including prostate cancer. However, the ICIs have only shown modest outcomes in mCRPC compared with other tumors.
