CD44v8-10 mRNA contained in serum exosomes as a diagnostic marker for docetaxel resistance in prostate cancer patients
1 Jul 2020
Abstract excerpt
Background Docetaxel is first-line chemotherapy for castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), but most patients acquire docetaxel resistance. CD44 has been shown to be involved in drug resistance of cancers including prostate cancer. We hypothesized that CD44 in serum exosomes could be a diagnostic marker for docetaxel resistance in CRPC patients. In this study, we examined CD44 protein and mRNA expression in...
