    DHODH Inhibition Represents a Therapeutic Strategy and Improves Abiraterone Treatment in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

    The authors showed that dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), an enzyme crucial in the pyrimidine biosynthesis pathway, was a promising therapeutic target for CRPC. The transcript levels of DHODH were significantly elevated in prostate tumors.

    YTHDF2 Protein Stabilization by the Deubiquitinase OTUB1 Promotes Prostate Cancer Cell Proliferation via PRSS8 mRNA Degradation

    With in vivo and in vitro ubiquitination assays, OUT domain-containing ubiquitin aldehyde-binding protein 1 (OTUB1) was shown to block ubiquitin transfer to YTH domain-containing family protein 2 (YTHDF2) independent of its deubiquitinase activity.
