Androgen-induced rhox homeobox genes modulate the expression of AR-regulated genes [PDF]
Rhox5, the founding member of the reproductive homeobox on the X chromosome (Rhox) gene cluster, encodes a homeodomain-containing transcription factor that is selectively expressed in Sertoli cells, where it promotes the survival of male germ cells ...

Engineered antibody and neuropeptide mediated radionuclide targeting in prostate cancer [PDF]
PhDProstate cancer (PC) is the most common cancer type in men in the western world and to date no definitive stratergy to image PC is avaliable. This thesis explores the possibility of using Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) and Gastrin Releasing

Epigenetic reprogramming of lineage switching in cancer
Cancer cells rarely commit to a single identity. Epigenetic mechanisms and tumor microenvironment cues push epithelial cells toward flexible, hybrid states that can shift into mesenchymal, neuroendocrine, or stem‐like fates, driving metastasis, drug resistance, and tumor heterogeneity. Targeting the epigenetic regulators behind these transitions, using

Androgen receptors as a prognostic and predictive factor in breast cancer.
Many theoretical and experimental models indicate that androgen receptors can play an important role as prognostic factors in breast cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlations between the presence of androgen receptors on cancer cells

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.
