Androgen receptor and hyaluronan-mediated motility receptor as new molecular targets of baicalein: new molecular mechanisms for its anticancer properties
Arch Pharm Res. 2023 Sep 10. doi: 10.1007/s12272-023-01461-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNatural compounds known as phytochemicals have served as valuable resources for the development of new anti-cancer drugs and treatment of malignancies. Among these phytochemicals, baicalein is an emerging anti-tumor flavonoid obtained from Scutellaria baicaleinsis (Lamiaceae), but its underlying mechanisms of action and molecular targets have not yet been completely elucidated. Here, we identified new mechanisms for the anti-tumor activities of baicalein, providing evidence that hyaluronan-mediated motility receptor (HMMR) and andro...

Antitumor activity of alkylphospholipid edelfosine in prostate cancer models and endoplasmic reticulum targeting
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 Sep 6;167:115436. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115436. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTProstate cancer is the second most frequent cancer and the fifth leading cause of cancer death among men worldwide. While the five-year survival in local and regional prostate cancer is higher than 99%, it falls to about 28% in advanced metastatic prostate cancer. The ether lipid edelfosine is considered the prototype of a family of promising antitumor drugs collectively named as alkylphospholipid analogs. Here, we found that edelfosine was the most potent alkylphospholipid analog in inducing apoptosis in three diff...

Targeted inhibition of mTOR by BML-275 induces mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis and autophagy in prostate cancer
In this study, BML-275 was demonstrated to exert potent antitumor effects in PCa by antagonizing mTOR activity. In cultured PCa cells, BML-275 treatment reduced the expression levels of c-Myc and survivin, promoted the activation of p53, and thereby induced p21/cyclin D1/CDK4/6-dependent cell cycle G1/S arrest. As a result, BML-275 inhibited cellular proliferation and induced mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis. In addition, BML-275 treatment triggered autophagy. Interestingly, EACC-mediated suppression of autophagy did not affect BML-275-induced proliferation and apoptosis. Nude mouse tumorigenic experiments also confirmed t...

Effect of aspirin on incidence, recurrence, and mortality in prostate cancer patients: integrating evidence from randomized controlled trials and real-world studies
ConclusionsThis meta-analysis revealed an independent correlation between the use of aspirin and reductions in both the incidence and mortality rates of PCa. However, randomized controlled trials did not find any association between aspirin use and PCa. Furthermore, the impact of aspirin on PCa occurrence was found to be dependent on both dosage and duration.

Suppression of hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal function by linzagolix in benign prostatic hyperplasia and polycystic ovary syndrome animal models
Clin Exp Pharmacol Physiol. 2023 Aug 25. doi: 10.1111/1440-1681.13817. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis is an important regulatory mechanism involved primarily in the development and regulation of the reproductive systems. The suppression of the HPG axis by gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogues is expected to be effective for the treatment of sex hormone-dependent diseases, such as endometriosis, uterine fibroid, prostate cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Despite the established involvement of GnRH signalling in these disord...
