Abstract
Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is characterized by poor prognosis and a median survival ranging from 10 to 20 months. Few therapeutic targets have been identified in CRPC, and further studies are needed to unravel the complex mechanism underlying tumor resistance and spread. Circulating 17²-estradiol levels are elevated as men age, impacting the prostate. Furthermore, estroge…

Abstract
Prostate cancer initially responds well to androgen deprivation therapies, but some tumors can progress to an androgen-independent phenotype, also known as castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), leading to metastasis. The molecular mechanisms that lead to the development of CRPC are not clear. Our laboratory has shown the expression and the extranuclear localization of the estrogen …
Interaction between estrogen receptors, EGFR and Filamin A in lineages Castration-resistant prostate cancer cells and spheroids, BP.PD
Abstract
Initially, prostate cancer depends on androgen to evolve, but it can gradually progress to an androgen-independent form of the disease, also known as castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). The molecular mechanisms involved in this stage of the disease are not fully understood and the current therapies are insufficient to improve the survival of patients. Previous studies from our la…
