Molecular mechanism of inhibitory effects of melatonin on prostate cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion
The increasing incidence of prostate cancer (PCa) indicates an urgent need for the development of new effective drug therapy. There are limited options to treat the PCa, this study tried to determine a new therapy option for this acute cancer. Androgen-independent PCa cell lines PC3 and DU145 were t...

Summary: | The increasing incidence of prostate cancer (PCa) indicates an urgent need for the development of new effective drug therapy. There are limited options to treat the PCa, this study tried to determine a new therapy option for this acute cancer. Androgen-independent PCa cell lines PC3 and DU145 were treated with different melatonin concentrations (0.1~3.5 mM) for 1~3 days and assessed cell migration, cell invasion, cycle arrest in G0/G1 phase as well as apoptosis. We utilized RNA-seq technology to analyze the transcriptional misregulation pathways in DU145 prostate cancer cell line with melatonin (0.5 mM) treatment. Data revealed 20031 genes were up and down-regulated, there were 271 genes that differentially expressed: 97 up-regulated (P |
