Epigenetic mechanisms underlying subtype heterogeneity and tumor recurrence in prostate cancer
Prostate cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease. Progression on androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) to castration-resistant (CRPC), or neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC), is associated with poor patient survival.

An exceptional response to 177LuPSMA undermined by neuroendocrine transformation
Approximately 25% of patients who have undergone extensive systemic therapy for advanced metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) develop treatment associated neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC). 177Lu-prostate specific membrane antigen (

Neuroendocrine differentiation in prostate cancer [PDF]
Hormonal therapy is an important treatment for advanced/metastatic prostate cancer. But it can induce neuroendocrine (NE) differentiation in prostate cancer cells. These NE cells will secrete manifold neural peptide or hormones which can lead to androgen-independent growth of non-NE tumor cells.

Mechanisms of neuroendocrine differentiation in castration-resistant prostate cancer and advances in the treatment of neuroendocrine prostate cancer. [PDF]
Prostate cancer (PC) is a common male malignancy. Although androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is standard for advanced PC, many patients develop castration-resistant PC (CRPC), and some progress to neuroendocrine PC (NEPC). This study aims to clarify mechanisms of this transition, especially the role of cancer stem cells (CSCs), and explore therapeutic

Neuroendocrine-like prostate cancer cells: neuroendocrine transdifferentiation of prostate adenocarcinoma cells [PDF]
Abstract Neuroendocrine (NE) cells represent a minor cell population in the epithelial compartment of normal prostate glands and may play a role in regulating the growth and differentiation of normal prostate epithelia. In prostate tumor lesions, the population of NE-like cells, i.e., cells exhibiting NE phenotypes and expressing NE ...

FDG PET-CT demonstration of metastatic neuroendocrine tumor of prostate
Background FDG PET-CT is generally not suitable for diagnosing prostate cancer because of low glycolysis of the tumor cells. Neuroendocrine differentiation of the prostate cancer is often associated with early visceral metastasis and dismal prognosis ...
