The Multifaceted Role of Osteopontin in Prostate Pathologies

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
The prostate gland, located beneath the bladder and surrounding the proximal urethra in men, plays a vital role in reproductive physiology and sexual health. Despite its importance, the prostate is vulnerable to various pathologies, including prostatitis,

Recent advances in prostate development and links to prostatic diseases

open access: yesWiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Systems Biology and Medicine, 2013
The prostate is a branched ductal‐acinar gland that is part of the male reproductive tract. Prostate development depends upon the integration of steroid hormone signals, paracrine interactions between the stromal and epithelial tissue layers, and the ...

Looking to the metabolic landscapes for prostate health monitoring

open access: yesProstate International, 2017
Abnormal metabolism is a widely accepted biological signature of prostatic diseases, including prostate cancer and benign prostate hyperplasia. Recently accumulated epidemiological and experimental evidence illustrate that the metabolic syndrome ...

Use of Epilobium parviflorum in the Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia in Canines

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science
The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of Epilobium parviflorum (EP) as a treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in dogs based on two clinical case reports. Two dogs with BPH were treated for 2 months with EP extract.

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

CCDC80 suppresses high‐grade serous ovarian cancer migration via negative regulation of B7‐H3

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PAX8 is a lineage‐specific master regulator of transcription in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) progression. We show for the first time that PAX8 facilitates proliferation and metastasis by repressing the cell autonomous tumor suppressor CCDC80 and inducing B7‐H3 expression.

CD47 promotes mitogen‐activated protein kinase and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition molecular programs to drive prometastatic phenotypes in non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Beyond its role in immune evasion, this study identified that CD47 drives tumor‐intrinsic signaling in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Transcriptomic profiling and functional studies revealed that CD47 regulates cell adhesion, migration, and metastasis through an ERK–EMT signaling axis.
