Abstract 16: Combination simvastatin and metformin induces G1-phase cell cycle arrest and Ripk1- and Ripk3-dependent necroptosis in C4-2B osseous metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer cells
Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) cells acquire resistance to chemotherapy and apoptosis in part due to enhanced aerobic glycolysis and biomass production, known as Warburg effect. We previously demonstrated that combination simvastatin (SIM) and metformin (MET) ameliorates critical Warburg effect-related metabolic aberrations of C4-2B cells, synergistically and significantly decreases CRPC cell viability and metastatic properties, with minimal effect on normal prostate epithelial cells, and inhibits primary prostate tumor growth, metastasis, and biochemical failure in an orthotopic model of metastatic CRPC, more...
