Dysregulated cellular metabolism is known to be associated with drug resistance in cancer treatment. In this study, we investigated the impact of cellular adaptation to lactic acidosis on intracellular energy metabolism and sensitivity to docetaxel in prostate carcinoma (PC) cells. The effects of curcumin and the role of hexokinase 2 (HK2) in this process were also examined.

Prostate cancer ranks as the fourth most common cancer among men, with approximately 1.47 million new cases reported annually. The emergence of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) as a critical biomarker has revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer.

Despite treatment, prostate cancer commonly progresses into castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), which remains largely incurable, requiring the development of new interventions. Darolutamide is an orally administered second-generation androgen receptor inhibitor indicated for patients with non-metastatic CRPC or metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. Here, we evaluated the effect of androgen receptor (AR) inhibition by darolutamide in combination with DNA double-strand-break-inducing targeted radium-223 alpha therapy in vitro and in an intratibial LNCaP xenograft model mimicking prostate cancer metastasized to bone.

Pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) is the most accurate procedure for lymph node (LN) staging in prostate cancer (PCa) patients. LN sectioning and hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining of at least one slice remains the gold standard for LN evaluation, potentially leading to misdetection of small metastatic focus. Entire LN analysis is possible with One-Step Nucleic Acid Amplification (OSNA) by detecting cytokeratin 19 (CK19) mRNA as a surrogate for LN invasion.

: Prostate cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the male population and the fifth leading cause of cancer death worldwide in men as of 2022. One of the potential biomarkers that can predict the progression of the disease is the transmembrane adhesion molecule CD44s. The aims of this study were to determine the expression of CD44s in prostate cancer in the central tumor mass and in the tumor periphery of the disease and to compare it with the clinicopathological parameters (PSA, Gleason score, surgical margins, and biochemical recurrence of the disease) in patients treated with radical prostatectomy.
