| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The role of the microenvironment within the cancer tissue in the mechanism of hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC) developing into castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) remains unclear. In this study, the differences in crosstalk between normal and HSPC-derived stromal cells and between CRPC-derived stromal cells and cancer cells were identified. Crosstalk between HSPC cells and CRPC cells was also revealed. In addition, we attempted to establish and characterize a cabazitaxel-resistant CRPC cell line because elucidating and overcoming the mechanism of cabazitaxel resistance is an important topic to improve patient outcomes. We have succeeded in synthesizing flavonoid derivatives with various actions such as inhibition of androgen signaling, inhibition of AR splicing variant (AR-V7), and proliferation inhibition. In the present study, we clarified the mechanism of action of the drug and confirmed its effect by improving the drug.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
進行性前立腺癌（去勢抵抗性前立腺癌）に対する治療はまだ十分とは言えず、新聞で発表されるほど予後は良くないのが現状である。今回の我々の研究はこの前立腺癌の治療抵抗性の機序やその治療戦略を立てる上で極めて重要な成果を上げた。今後さらにこの研究が臨床応用されれば、前立腺癌の予後が改善されることが期待できる。
