Whilst androgen ablation therapy is used to treat locally advanced or metastatic forms of prostate cancer, side-effects can include the emergence of an androgen-independent neuroendocrine cell population which is associated with poor prognosis. Here we have examined how cyclic AMP elevation regulates early events in the neuroendocrine differentiation process. We demonstrate that selective activation of protein...
