Antiandrogen therapies are effectively used to treat advanced prostate cancer, but eventually cancer adaptation drives unresolved metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Adipose tissue influences metabolic reprogramming in cancer and was proposed as a contributor to therapy resistance. Using extracellular matrix (ECM)-mimicking hydrogel coculture models of human adipocytes and prostate cancer cells, we show that adipocytes from subcutaneous or bone marrow fat have dissimilar responses under the antiandrogen Enzalutamide.

The aims of this study were to investigate the localization of non-phosphorylated β‑catenin and Galectin-3 (GAL-3), the regulation of the expression of both proteins by activation of estrogen receptors (ERs) and their role in tumorigenic characteristics of androgen-independent prostate cancer DU-145 cells. DU-145 cells were cultured in the absence (control), and presence of 17β-estradiol (E2). Cells were also untreated or pre-treated with the inhibitor of GAL‑3, VA03, or with a compound that disrupts the complex β-catenin-TCF/LEF transcription factor, PKF 118-310.

Nuclear receptors (NRs) are ligand-activated transcription factors that regulate gene expression in response to physiological signals, such as hormones and other chemical messengers. These receptors either activate or repress the transcription of target genes, which in turn promotes or suppresses physiological processes governing growth, differentiation, and homeostasis. NRs bind to specific DNA sequences and, in response to ligand binding, either promote or hinder the assembly of the transcriptional machinery, thereby influencing gene expression at the transcriptional level.

This study aimed to identify shared gene expression related to circadian rhythm disruption in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to discover common diagnostic biomarkers. Visceral fat RNA samples were collected from 12 PCOS and 14 non-PCOS patients, a sample size representing the clinical situation and sufficient to capture PCOS gene expression profiles. Along with liver transcriptome profiles from NAFLD patients, these data were analyzed to identify crosstalk circadian rhythm-related genes (CRRGs) between the diseases.

Background: The Androgen Receptor (AR) pathway is crucial in driving the progression of prostate cancer (PCa) to an advanced state. Despite the introduction of second-generation AR antagonists, such as enzalutamide, majority of patients develop resistance. Several mechanisms of resistance have been identified, including the constitutive activation of the AR pathway, the emergence of AR spliced variants, and the influence of other signalling pathways.
