Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Androgen deprivation therapy is standard of care for advanced prostate cancer. However, most cases will acquire resistant and progress to castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), the mechanism of progression to CRPC is still not clear. To understand the part of the mechanism to progression, gene interaction analysis in CRPC cell line were analyzed using CAGE analysis. Functional enrichment analysis identified about 2000 genes over-expressed in CRPC cell line and were clustered as “endosome” or “pyrimidine metabolic process”.
