Dietary restriction: could it be considered as speed bump on tumor progression road? [PDF]
Dietary restrictions, including fasting (or long-term starvation), calorie restriction (CR), and short-term starvation (STS), are considered a strong rationale that may protect against various diseases, including age-related diseases and cancer.

Tumor Cell-educated Periprostatic Adipose Tissue Acquires an Aggressive Cancer-promoting Secretory Profile [PDF]
The microenvironment produces important factors that are crucial to prostate cancer (PCa) progression. However, the extent to which the cancer cells stimulate periprostatic adipose tissue (PPAT) to produce these proteins is largely unknown. Our purpose was to determine whether PCa cell-derived factors influence PPAT metabolic activity.Primary cultures ...

Role of Lipids and Lipid Metabolism in Prostate Cancer Progression and the Tumor’s Immune Environment [PDF]
Modulation of lipid metabolism during cancer development and progression is one of the hallmarks of cancer in solid tumors; its importance in prostate cancer (PCa) has been demonstrated in numerous studies.

Effects of Dietary Restriction on Cancer Development and Progression [PDF]
The effects of caloric restriction on tumor growth and progression are known for over a century. Indeed, fasting has been practiced for millennia, but just recently has emerged the protective role that it may exert toward cells.

The Adipose Mast Cell: Mastokines As Binary Modulators Of Disease Processes [PDF]
A paradigm-shifting discovery of the hormone leptin (in the end of 1994) paved the way toward intensive studies on endocrine and paracrine function of the adipose tissue.

Ex vivo fluorescence confocal microscopy: prostatic and periprostatic tissues atlas and evaluation of the learning curve [PDF]
Ex vivo fluorescence confocal microscopy (FCM) is an optical technology that provides fast H&E-like images of freshly excised tissues, and it has been mainly used for “real-time” pathological examination of dermatological malignancies.

The response of the prostate to circulating cholesterol: activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) as a prominent node in a cholesterol-sensing network. [PDF]
Elevated circulating cholesterol is a systemic risk factor for cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome, however the manner in which the normal prostate responds to variations in cholesterol levels is poorly understood.

Genetic polymorphisms in key hypoxia-regulated downstream molecules and phenotypic correlation in prostate cancer [PDF]
Background In this study we sought if, in their quest to handle hypoxia, prostate tumors express target hypoxia-associated molecules and their correlation with putative functional genetic polymorphisms.

White adipose tissue undergoes browning under endogenous and exogenous stimuli, primarily regulated by core molecules such as PRDM16 and UCP1. It exhibits a double‐edged sword effect in metabolic diseases and tumors: while mitigating metabolic disease impacts and suppressing early‐stage tumors through nutritional competition, it may accelerate cachexia
