ABSTRACT Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer and second leading cause of cancer death for American men. Chemoprevention by using phytochemicals offers a promising approach to improve outcomes due to their ability to act on cancer cell metabolism and growth while maintaining low toxicity profiles.

ODC1 Polyamine Metabolism Drives Prostate Cancer via AKT and Splicing
ABSTRACT Prostate cancer is an aggressive disease with limited quantifiable biomarkers. One gene of interest is ODC1, which encodes ornithine decarboxylase, the rate‐limiting enzyme converting ornithine to putrescine in polyamine metabolism. Although ODC1 is known to be involved in prostate cancer development, exactly how it drives the disease ...

Akt over-expression resists the effect of DFMO+diclofenac.
Treatment of myr-flag-Akt overexpressing cells with DFMO and diclofenac resisted the changes in the levels of p-Akt ser-473 and cyclin D1 as compared to empty vector control and wild type A431 cells.

Sustained Delivery of Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) by Means of Implantable Ceramic Devices
A total of 25 Sprague-Dawley albino male rats were assigned to five groups, each group consisting of five rats. Polylactic acid-impregnated ALCAP capsules filled with 40 mg DFMO were implanted subcutaneously (sc) or intraperitoneally (ip) in group I and II rats, respectively.
