Kinesin Facilitates Phenotypic Targeting of Therapeutic Resistance in Advanced Prostate Cancer
In this study, we use in vitro and in vivo preclinical MDA PCa PDX models of resistant human prostate cancer to determine molecular mechanisms of cross-resistance between anti-androgen therapy and taxane chemotherapy, underlying the therapeutically resistant phenotype. Transcriptomic profiling revealed that resistant and sensitive prostate cancer C4-2B cells have a unique differential gene signature response to cabazitaxel. Gene pathway analysis showed that sensitive cells exhibit increase in DNA damage, while resistant cells express genes associated with protein regulation in response to cabazitaxel. These PDX specimens a...

The effect of baseline O < sub > 2 < /sub > conditions on the response of prostate cancer cells to hypoxia
Am J Physiol Cell Physiol. 2024 Apr 22. doi: 10.1152/ajpcell.00155.2024. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe transcriptional response to hypoxia is largely regulated by the hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), which induce the expression of genes involved in glycolysis, angiogenesis, proliferation, and migration. Virtually all cell culture-based hypoxia experiments have used near-atmospheric (18% O2) oxygen levels as baseline for comparison to hypoxia. However, this is hyperoxic compared to mammalian tissue microenvironments, where oxygen levels range from 2-9% O2 (physioxia). Thus, these experiments actually compare hyperoxia ...

GSE232552 FOXA2/AP-1 drives prostate cancer lineage plasticity [ChIP-seq]
In this study, we show that FOXA2 binds to distinct chromatin regions in multiple AR-null PCa models with different molecular subtypes and that its binding is dependent on an epigenetic factor, LSD1. More importantly, we demonstrate that FOXA2 can function as a major pioneer factor of JUN and govern the chromatin binding of AP-1 complex in PCa exhibiting lineage plasticity. Mechanistically, differential reprogramming of JUN activates lineage-specific super-enhancers that may promote PCa progression by enhancing cell state transitions to multiple lineages. Overall, our study reveals a pivotal function of the LSD1-FOXA2 axis...

The role of urology and radiology in prostate biopsy: current trends and future perspectives
ConclusionThere is no evidence to suggest that prostate biopsy should be solely performed by a specific specialty. The most important factor remains knowledge of the relevant anatomy and sufficient volume of cases to develop and maintain skills. (Source: World Journal of Urology)

Increase of prostate-specific antigen doubling time predicts survival in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients undergoing radium therapy
ConclusionsDynamic changes in PSADT were associated with survival in mCRPC patients receiving radium therapy. Comparing interim and baseline PSADT could serve as a valuable marker for determining treatment benefits. (Source: Annals of Nuclear Medicine)

Enhancing surgical outcomes: accurate identification and removal of prostate cancer with B7-H3-targeted NIR-II molecular imaging
ConclusionThe findings revealed that B7-H3 was a compelling imaging target for PCa. The AbB7 −H3-800CW molecular imaging probe is capable of accurately identifying PCa lesions and guiding their removal. This approach can potentially reduce the rate of surgical margins under NIR-II fluorescence guidance. (Source: European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging)
