Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Metastatic prostate cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality in men, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Plexins are transmembrane receptors for semaphorins with divergent roles in many forms of cancer. We recently found that a single clinically relevant specific amino acid change (Proline1597Leucine, (P1597L)), found in metastatic deposits of...
