The Progression of LNCaP Human Prostate Cancer Cells to Androgen Independence Involves Decreased FOXO3a Expression and Reduced <i>p27KIP1</i> Promoter Transactivation
1 Mar 2005
Abstract excerpt
The progression of human prostate cancer from the initial androgen-dependent phase to androgen independence involves diminished apoptosis and a release from the cell cycle block triggered by androgen ablation therapy. FOXO transcription factors play a central role in promoting expression of proapoptotic and cell cycle regulatory genes (e.g., FasL and p27KIP1). Reduced FOXO function might, therefore, play a role...
