    Prostate Lineage-Specific Metabolism Governs Luminal Differentiation and Response to Antiandrogen Treatment

    Scientists developed an approach to perform metabolomics on primary prostate epithelial cells, and using this approach, discovered that the basal and luminal cells of the prostate exhibited distinct metabolomes and nutrient utilization patterns.

    The PENGUIN Approach to Reconstruct Protein Interactions at Enhancer-Promoter Regions and Its Application to Prostate Cancer

    The authors introduced Promoter-Enhancer-Guided Interaction Networks (PENGUIN), a method for studying protein-protein interaction networks within enhancer-promoter interactions. PENGUIN was validated using cancer and benign prostate cell lines.

    YAP1 Recognizes Inflammatory and Mechanical Cues to Exacerbate Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia via Promoting Cell Survival and Fibrosis

    The correlation between YAP1 expression and fibrosis in human and rat benign prostatic hyperplasia specimens was analyzed, and the effects of YAP1 activation on prostatic cell survival and fibrosis, as well as the underlying mechanism, were also studied.

    Adipose Triglyceride Lipase Is a Therapeutic Target in Advanced Prostate Cancer That Promotes Metabolic Plasticity

    Molecular, genetic, or pharmacological inhibition of adipose triglyceride lipase impaired human and murine prostate cancer growth in vivo and in cell culture or organoids under conditions mimicking the tumor microenvironment.

    Abstract

    ND630 Controls ACACA and Lipid Reprogramming in Prostate Cancer by Regulating the Expression of circKIF18B_003

    Researchers examined the function and effects of circKIF18B_003 in prostate cancer cells using CCK-8, colony formation, wound healing, and Transwell invasion assays and xenograft models.

    A Novel L-Shaped Ortho-Quinone Analog As PLK1 Inhibitor Blocks Prostate Cancer Cells in G2 Phase

    In vitro experiments on prostate cancer cells showed that TE6 inhibited PLK1 protein expression, and consequently cell proliferation, by blocking the cell cycle at G2 phase.

    Tumor Suppressor miR-361-3p Inhibits Prostate Cancer Progression through Gli1 and AKT/mTOR Signaling Pathway

    The mechanism of action of miR-361-3p was investigated using western blotting, luciferase reporter assays, immunofluorescence, and rescue studies.

    Abstract

    H3K27 Acetylation Activated-PDLIM7 Promotes Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Progression by Inducing O-Glycosylation of YAP1 Protein

    Loss-of-function assays demonstrated that silencing of PDZ and LIM Domain 7 (PDLIM7) could suppress CRPC cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis.

    Biden Wants NIH to Have ‘March-In’ Power to Override Patent Rights for High-Priced Drugs

    The “proposed framework” would clarify that a tool for removing patent protection to ensure a government-funded invention is commercialized can be used for an overly pricey drug so that other companies can sell it more cheaply.
