Single-Cell Analysis Reveals Androgen Receptor Regulates the ER-to-Golgi Trafficking Pathway with CREB3L2 to Drive Prostate Cancer Progression

Scientists used single-cell transcriptome analysis to reconstruct the transcriptional network of androgen receptor (AR) in prostate cancer. They showed that AR directly regulated a set of signature genes in the ER-to-Golgi protein vesicle-mediated transport pathway.

GLI3 Is Stabilized by SPOP Mutations and Promotes Castration Resistance via Functional Cooperation with Androgen Receptor in Prostate Cancer

The authors showed that GLI3, a key SHH pathway effector, was transcriptionally upregulated during androgen deprivation and posttranslationally stabilized in prostate cancer cells by mutation of speckle-type POZ protein.

Panobinostat Reverses HepaCAM Gene Expression and Suppresses Proliferation by Increasing Histone Acetylation in Prostate Cancer

Scientists investigated the effect of panobinostat, the broad-spectrum histone deacetylases inhibitor, on prostate cancer LNCaP and DU145 cell growth, and observed re-expression of hepatocyte cell adhesion molecule when treated with panobinostat.
