Abstract
In this investigation, we explored the molecular dynamics guiding the progression of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) influenced by Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-mediated M2 polarization of macrophages through the IL-17RA/CTSK/EMT axis. An 830-patient clinical trial categorized subjects into hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC) and CRPC groups. H. pylori infection, evaluated by ELISA, exhibited a higher incidence in CRPC patients, impacting overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival. In-depth in vitro and in vivo experiments, including 16S rDNA sequencing, immunohistochemical tests, and transcriptome analysis, unveiled that H. pylori promotes CRPC growth and metastasis by upregulating IL-17RA and CTSK, leading to enhanced EMT. Notably, M2 macrophages emerged as pivotal immune cells influencing CRPC progression. This study uncovers a novel pathway wherein H. pylori enrichment exacerbates CRPC by inducing macrophage M2 polarization, IL-17RA/CTSK expression, and EMT activation, shedding light on a previously unrecognized mechanism contributing to the growth and metastasis of CRPC.
期刊介绍:
Oncogene is dedicated to advancing our understanding of cancer processes through the publication of exceptional research. The journal seeks to disseminate work that challenges conventional theories and contributes to establishing new paradigms in the etio-pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of cancers. Emphasis is placed on research shedding light on processes driving metastatic spread and providing crucial insights into cancer biology beyond existing knowledge.
Areas covered include the cellular and molecular biology of cancer, resistance to cancer therapies, and the development of improved approaches to enhance survival. Oncogene spans the spectrum of cancer biology, from fundamental and theoretical work to translational, applied, and clinical research, including early and late Phase clinical trials, particularly those with biologic and translational endpoints.
