雄激素受体是前列腺癌发生发展的重要因素。雄激素去势疗法是目前治疗前列腺癌的标准疗法,在早期可以有效的抑制肿瘤生长。但2~3年内,肿瘤会复发或进展,形成去势抵抗性前列腺癌。目前关于雄激素去势疗法治疗后去势抵抗性前列腺癌发生发展机制研究的文献较多(其中包括类固醇激素代谢的变化、雄激素受体基因的扩增或过表达、雄激素受体辅助调节因子、雄激素受体剪接变异体、生长因子和/或细胞因子、雄激素受体突变等等机制),但还没有对具体机制完全了解并形成共识。目前普遍认为在去势抵抗性前列腺癌中,雄激素和雄激素受体在其发生发展中起到了关键的作用。本文就雄激素受体在前列腺癌进展为去势抵抗性前列腺癌的机制中的作用加以综述。 相似文献

雄激素受体(androgen receptor,AR)作为核内转录因子是前列腺癌中最常见的治疗靶标,在去势抵抗性前列腺癌(castration resistant prostate cancer,CRPC)中雄激素受体也起到了非常重要的作用。去势抵抗性前列腺癌的发生发展机制是当前的研究热点。表观遗传学的改变在前列腺癌的发展中具有重要作用。甲基化、乙酰化及非编码RNA可以通过对雄激素受体信号通路的调控促进或者抑制前列腺癌的发生发展。本文将近期关于前列腺癌雄激素受体信号通路表观遗传学的调节机制进行综述。 相似文献

比卡鲁胺治疗雄激素非依赖性前列腺癌 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
雄激素非依赖性前列腺癌(androgen-independent prostate cancer,AIPCa)是前列腺癌治疗中的难点之一,在临床上AIPCa根据疾病发展的不同阶段可以再分为:雄激素非依赖性、激素敏感型前列腺癌,和雄激素非依赖性、激素不敏感型前列腺癌或称激素抵抗性前列腺癌。激素敏感型雄激素非依赖性前列腺癌对改变激素治疗方式仍敏感,因此,二线内分泌治疗是主要的治疗选择。比卡鲁胺(bicalutamide,康士德,casodex)是欧美常用的二线内分泌治疗药物之一,在临床上取得了一定的疗效。而国内报道极少。为观察比卡鲁胺的疗效,我们于2000年1月-2004年12月,用比卡鲁胺作为二线内分泌治疗药物,治疗AIPCa患者20例,对部分患者有效。 相似文献

前列腺癌在美国成年男性中发病率位居第一,癌症相关致死率位居第二。雄激素剥夺治疗是最常用的前列腺癌治疗方法,而且通常伴随患者的终身治疗。雄激素和雄激素剥夺疗法对免疫系统有着重要的影响,在目前免疫治疗受到持续关注的情况下这一发现显得尤为重要。研究表明,雄激素剥夺治疗可能对免疫治疗起到促进或者抑制的作用。本文综述了不同类型雄激素剥夺治疗药物的作用机制,探讨了其对前列腺癌细胞及患者免疫系统的影响,以及联合使用雄激素剥夺药物和免疫治疗的前景,为前列腺癌的治疗提供了新的视野和思路。 相似文献

前列腺癌为一类男性患病率较高的癌症,对该癌症机制的认识以及治疗手段非常有限,在西欧和美洲男性中是一类致死率较高的癌症。随着科学研究的不断进展,p21活化激酶(PAK)蛋白家族在癌症中发挥的作用开始进入人们的视野。p21活化激酶6(PAK6)最初是以雄激素受体的配体结合域(LBD)上的氨基酸序列629~919,通过酵母双杂交识别出来的雄激素受体相关蛋白。而雄激素与雄激素受体在前列腺癌的发生与发展中发挥了十分重要的作用,因此 PAK6蛋白作为前列腺癌治疗的靶向蛋白被不断研究。本文主要介绍 PAK6在前列腺癌中的双向调节作用,包括通过磷酸化雄激素受体抑制雄激素受体向核内转移的抑癌作用,和通过抑制 BAD 凋亡通路、影响前列腺癌细胞生长周期以及促进前列腺癌细胞从细胞集落中脱离的促癌作用。同时 PAK6的表达水平和激酶活性的调节对 PAK6在前列腺癌中发挥作用具有十分重要的意义。激素与生长因素和内质网应激可能是提高 PAK6表达水平和激酶活性的两条途径。PAK6在前列腺癌中发挥的作用与其表达水平和激酶活性的调节机制对前列腺癌的治疗手段以及其治疗药物的靶向目标具有十分重要的意义。 相似文献

Platelets have been long postulated to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of prostate cancer, although relatively little is known regarding the precise mechanisms involved. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer eventually fails with relapse occurring in the form of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). CRPC tumors typically overexpress androgen receptor (AR), demonstrating continued dependence upon AR signaling. Platelets have been previously demonstrated to contain androgens, and we sought to explore the contribution of platelet-derived androgens in CRPC. In this study, we examined the role of platelet-derived androgens in vitro using platelets from men with CRPC, men with high-risk prostate cancer, and healthy male donors. A series of in vitro assays was performed to elucidate the impact of platelet-derived androgens on androgen-sensitive prostate tumor cells. By examining platelet-derived androgen effects on AR signaling in prostate tumor cells, we found that platelets, from men with CRPC and on ADT, strongly induce AR target genes and tumor cell proliferation. Moreover, we show a fully intact testosterone (T) biosynthetic pathway within platelets from its precursor cholesterol and demonstrate that platelets of CRPC patients with ADT resistance are able to generate T. Overall, our findings reveal an unknown capacity of platelets to synthesize T at functionally relevant levels in patients with lethal prostate cancer. Importantly, it suggests a novel paracrine mechanism of T production that may act to sustain CRPC state and potentiate therapeutic resistance.Abbreviations: ADT, androgen deprivation therapy; AR, androgen receptor; CRPC, castration-resistant prostate cancer; DHT, dihydrotestosterone; HR, high-risk disease; MS, mass spectrometry; T, testosterone 相似文献

Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), the invariably lethal phenotype of advanced prostate cancer, represents a clinical state defined by disease progression despite reduction of testosterone to castrate levels (i.e., ≤50 ng/dL). Although resistant to androgen-deprivation therapy (i.e., LHRH agonists/antagonists), CRPC continues to depend on the androgen receptor (AR)-signaling pathway. Supporting the importance of AR-signaling in a castration-resistant state, the next-generation AR-signaling inhibitors enzalutamide and abiraterone have been shown to afford a survival benefit in men with metastatic CRPC. However, primary and secondary resistance mechanisms to these agents inevitably drive continued disease progression—often as a result of re-activation of AR-signaling. With increased understanding of the mechanisms underlying how continued AR-signaling occurs in spite of drugs like abiraterone and enzalutamide, a new wave of therapies is emerging designed to more effectively target AR-signaling. This review will focus on the more clinically relevant mechanisms of CRPC drug resistance and our ongoing efforts to develop drugs to target these mechanisms. 相似文献

Prostate cancer is androgen-dependent in its early stages and androgen deprivation therapy represents the most effective first-line therapeutic approach. However, after an initial remission, prostate cancer progresses towards the castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) stage, with increased malignancy and resistance to conventional chemotherapy. 相似文献

Although advanced prostate cancer patients respond very well to front-line androgen deprivation, failure to hormonal therapy most often occurs after a median time of 18-24 months. The care of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) has significantly evolved over the past decade, with the onset of first-line therapy with docetaxel. Although numerous therapy schedules have been investigated alongside docetaxel, in either first-line or salvage therapy, results were dismal. However, CRPC chemotherapy is currently evolving, with, on the one hand, new agents targeting androgen metabolism and, on the other hand, significant progress in chemotherapy drugs, particularly for second-line therapy. The aim of the present review is to describe the current treatments for CRPC chemotherapy alongside their challengers that might shortly become new standards. In this article, we discuss the most recent data from clinical trials to provide the reader with a comprehensive, state-of-the-art overview of CRPC chemotherapy and hormonal therapy. 相似文献

Castration resistance is a major issue during castration therapy for prostate cancer and thus more effective treatment are needed for castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). NDRG2 (N-Myc downstream regulated gene 2), a recently identified tumor suppressor, was previously shown to inhibit the proliferation and invasion of prostate cancer, but whether NDRG2 is involved in CRPC remains to be known. Because androgen receptor (AR) axis plays an important role in castration resistance, we evaluate the role of NDRG2 in AR signaling and CRPC. Immunohistochemistry examination of prostate cancer tissues demonstrated that the expression of NDRG2 is negatively correlated with that of AR and c-Myc. Furthermore, AR negatively regulates NDRG2, as well as alters levels of c-Myc and prostate specific antigen (PSA). Forced expression of NDRG2 significantly inhibits the in vitro growth of androgen-dependent and castration-resistant prostate cancer cells; this was accompanied by alterations in PSA, but not by those of AR and c-Myc. Finally, by mimicking castration therapy in a xenograft mouse model, we showed that lentivirus-mediated NDRG2 overexpression efficiently overcomes castration resistance. Thus, by acting as a negative regulator downstream of AR, NDRG2 may emerge as a potential therapy molecule for CRPC. 相似文献

Androgen receptor (AR) signalling drives neoplastic growth and therapy resistance in prostate cancer. Recent clinical data show that docetaxel combined with androgen deprivation therapy improves outcome in hormone-sensitive disease. We studied whether testosterone and AR signalling interferes with docetaxel treatment efficacy in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). We found that testosterone supplementation significantly impaired docetaxel tumour accumulation in a CRPC model, resulting in decreased tubulin stabilisation and antitumour activity. Furthermore, testosterone competed with docetaxel for uptake by the drug transporter OATP1B3. Irrespective of docetaxel-induced tubulin stabilisation, AR signalling by testosterone counteracted docetaxel efficacy. AR-pathway activation could also reverse long-term tumour regression by docetaxel treatment in vivo. These results indicate that to optimise docetaxel efficacy, androgen levels and AR signalling need to be suppressed. This study lends evidence for continued maximum suppression of AR signalling by combining targeted therapeutics with docetaxel in CRPC.Subject terms: Prostate cancer, Chemotherapy 相似文献

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer, and the second leading cause of death from cancer, in males in most Western countries. Advanced prostate cancer is initially sensitive to androgen deprivation therapy, but usually progresses to the castration-resistant state. There is now incontrovertible evidence that castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) remains hormone driven, with intratumoral steroid synthesis fueling tumor growth. Several novel agents targeted androgen receptor signaling are currently being evaluated including abiraterone and MDV3100. Recent results of the phase III trial of abiraterone acetate in post-docetaxel patients has shown an overall survival benefit in advanced CRPC. This new treatment is likely to become a new standard of care for patients with metastatic CRPC. 相似文献
