Chronic inflammation can augment tumor development in various types of cancers, including prostate cancer (PCa). Reduction is therefore an important anticancer therapeutic opportunity. Here, we report four anti-proliferative phytocompounds Wedelia chinensis , oriental herbal medicine, identified through their ability to modulate the androgen receptor (AR) activation transcription from prostate-specific antigen promoter PCa cells. The 50% inhibition concentration values...
Estrogens are essential for female reproduction and overall well-being, estrogens in the circulation largely synthesized ovarian granulosa cells. Using primary cultures of cells from gonadotropin-primed immature rats, we have recently discovered that pituitary FSH cytokine transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFβ1) induce calcineurin-mediated dephosphorylation-activation cAMP-response element-binding protein (CREB)-regulated transcription coactivator (CRTC2) to modulate expression Star,...
