Discovery of a Novel AR/HDAC6 Dual Inhibitor for Prostate Cancer Treatment

Given that both androgen receptor (AR) antagonists and histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitors modulate AR signaling, a novel AR/HDAC6 dual inhibitor was investigated for its anticancer effects in castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Upregulation of Glucocorticoid Receptor-Mediated Glucose Transporter 4 in Enzalutamide-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Inhibition of glucocorticoid receptor‐mediated glucose transporter 4 suppressed cell proliferation in enzalutamide (Enz)‐resistant prostate cancer cells, which recovered from Enz resistance and cross‐resistance without changes in glucocorticoid receptor expression.
