  •  
    Dichloroacetate (DCA) inhibits aerobic glycolysis via inhibition of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase kinase (PDK), which allows for the phosphorylation of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase and the formation of acetylCo-A.  This then feeds the krebs cycle.  Increased mitochondrial activity increases ROS and resultant apoptosis of cancer cells.

Differential Effects of Dehydroepiandrosterone and Testosterone in Prostate and Colon C... - 0 views

  • Several studies indicate that DHEA may enhance cancer-promoting activities in several prostate cancer cell lines acting as agonist or antagonist for the intracellular AR
  • the estrogenic metabolites of DHEA, 5a-androstane-3b, 17b-diol (3b-Adiol) and E2 bind to estrogen receptors but not to AR
  • no specific receptor has been identified for DHEA
  • ...16 more annotations...
  • Different members of neurotrophins are expressed during cancer progression, suggesting their involvement in cell proliferation, anoikis protection, and malignancy
  • Regulation of the apoptotic machinery in prostate and colon cancer cells by testosterone occurs rapidly and is initiated at the plasma membrane level through specific membrane-binding sites not involving the classical cytoplasmic AR
  • testosterone exerts potent regulatory effects on prostate and colon cancer cell apoptosis
  • Testosterone increased cell death in a dose-dependent manner
  • testosterone antagonizes the prosurvival effects of DHEA in neuronal cells, blocking its binding to NGF receptors
  • treatment of cells with DHEA exerted a strong antiapoptotic effect,
  • Androgens hold a central role in prostate and colon cancer biology
  • elevated levels of DHEA or its sulfate ester DHEA-sulfate in young adults are associated to low incidence of androgen-dependent tumors
  • DHEA may play a protective role in young prostate
  • The decline of DHEA with aging may contribute to prostate cancer progression associated with advanced age
  • DHEA is an effective antiapoptotic factor, reversing the serum deprivation-induced apoptosis in prostate cancer cells (DU145 and LNCaP cell lines) as well as in colon cancer cells
  • NGF appears to exert similar antiapoptotic actions in both prostate and color cancer cells
  • exposure of prostate DU145 and colon Caco2 cancer cells to testosterone totally blocked the protective effects of both DHEA and NGF. These findings suggest that testosterone acts as an antagonist of DHEA and NGF
  • These findings support the hypothesis that testosterone may inhibit cancer cell growth by antagonizing the proliferative, antiapoptotic effects of endogenous factors, such as DHEA or NGF, in the case of prostate and colon cancer cells
  • intratumor hormonal microenvironment may play a critical role in tumor progression.
  • The paracrine interactions of androgens with locally produced NGF may define tumor cell fate

    Full article of previously posted abstract.  Cancers are unique.  Not all cancers are alike.  Whether they are tissue specific or not, cancers are unique.  This article describes the uniqueness of DHEA and Testosterone cancer, with particular attention to colon.

Associations between ERα, ERβ, and AR Genotypes and Colon and Rectal Cancer - 0 views

  •  
    Study finds ER-beta plays more significant role in the development of Colon cancer than ER-alpha in women.  HRT in women reduces colon cancer risk in comparison to breast, which is increased.  Shows the different tissue expression of ER-alpha and ER-beta, as well as the HRT itself.

    Study finds Testosterone induces apoptosis via deactivation of NGF.  Testosterone counters the proliferation of DHEA, via NGF activation.  Without evaluation of aromatase activity, this study is incomplete.

Associations between Testosterone Levels and Incident Prostate, Lung, and Colorectal Ca... - 0 views

  •  
    Study finds that increased free Testosterone is associated with increased incidence of prostate cancer.  Higher Total Testosterone was associated with lung cancer and androgens were not associated with colorectal cancer incidence.  That being said, the evaluation of androgens only is a significant limiting factor of this study.

    Low Testosterone is common among male cancer survivors after therapy.  Many studies point to low T at the time of diagnosis as a prognostic biomarker.  The low T impairs QOL in this men.
