| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Although androgen / androgen receptor axis plays a key role in progression of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), mutation or alteration involving other signaling pathways are also enriched in CRPC. We focused on CDK4, cell cycle regulator, and investigated the therapeutic effect of CDK4 inhibitor, using the human prostate cancer cell line, the human CRPC cell line, and the docetaxel-resistant CRPC cell line. It was found that anti-cancer effect of CDK4 inhibitor was exhibited regardless of the sensitivity to hormone or docetaxel of the cell lines. We also showed that AR expression was not affected by CDK4 inhibitor. These results implied that alteration of cell cycle control plays some important role in CRPC progression and CDK4 inhibitor might be effective in the treatment of CRPC.
