Ellagic Acid Improves Benign Prostate Hyperplasia by Regulating Androgen Signaling and STAT3

June 24, 2022

[Cell Death & Disease] To investigate the effect of ellagic acid (EA) on benign prostate hyperplasia, scientists used EA, a phytochemical abundant in fruits and vegetables, to treat testosterone propionate-induced BPH rats and RWPE-1 human prostate epithelial cells.

Identification of Prostate Cancer Subtypes Based on Immune Signature Scores in Bulk and Single-Cell Transcriptomes

June 24, 2022

[Medical Oncology] Researchers identified two prostate cancer (PC) subtypes: PC immunity high and PC immunity low, consistently in these datasets.

Leptin Modulated MicroRNA-628-5p Targets Jagged-1 and Inhibits Prostate Cancer Hallmarks

June 24, 2022

[Scientific Reports] Investigators examined the detailed cellular phenotypes and pathways regulated by miR-628 in prostate cancer cells.

Hippo Pathway Monomerizes STAT3 to Regulate Prostate Cancer Growth

June 24, 2022

[Cancer Science] Scientists showed that high cell density-mediated activation of Hippo pathway blunted STAT3 activity in prostate cancer cells.

CKAP2L, a Crucial Target of miR-326, Promotes Prostate Cancer Progression

June 24, 2022

[BMC Cancer] CKAP2L expression was examined in the normal and tumor tissues of prostate cancer patients with RT-QPCR and Western blot.

Dual STAT-3 and IL-6R Inhibition with Stattic and Tocilizumab Decreases Migration, Invasion and Proliferation of Prostate Cancer Cells by Targeting the IL-6/IL-6R/STAT-3 Axis

June 24, 2022

[Oncology Reports] Researchers investigated the effect of Stattic + Tocilizumab on proliferative, clonogenic, migratory and invasive ability of human metastatic prostate cancer, as assessed by colony formation, wound healing and migration assay.

$3.5M Study to Better Predict Prostate Cancer Risk

June 24, 2022

[University of Hawai'i News] To increase public understanding of the causes of prostate cancer, the University of Hawaiʻi Cancer Center will lead a $3.5 million public impact research study to further our understanding of prostate cancer to improve prediction of future disease.

miR-27 and miR-124 Target AR Coregulators in Prostate Cancer: Bioinformatics and In Vitro Analysis

June 23, 2022

[Andrologia] The authors identified miRNAs targeting androgen receptor (AR) coregulators. They examined target genes by combining miRNA-mRNA computational and experimental data from various databases.

Androgen and Androgen Receptor Control of Mitochondrial Function

June 23, 2022

[American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology] The authors highlight the effects that androgens have on mitochondrial structure and function with emphasis on biogenesis, fusion/fission, mitophagy, bioenergetics, and reactive oxygen species production.

Prostate Organogenesis

June 23, 2022

[Development] The fields of developmental and cancer biology have long been interested in prostate organogenesis because of its relevance for understanding prostate disease.

Chronologically Modified Androgen Receptor in Recurrent Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Its Therapeutic Targeting

June 17, 2022

[Science Translational Medicine] ACK1 kinase–mediated AR Y267 phosphorylation was a prerequisite for AR K609 acetylation, which spawned positive feedback loops at both the transcriptional and posttranslational level that regenerated and sustained high androgen receptor and ACK1 expression.

α-Terthienyl Induces Prostate Cancer Cell Death through Inhibiting Androgen Receptor Expression

June 17, 2022

[Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy] Scientists found α- terthienyl could inhibit the cell viability of four prostate cancer cell lines, especially on LNCaP and 22Rv1 cells which endogenously express androgen receptor.
