## Abstract The purpose of these experiments was to assess the synergistic activity of silibinin with chemotherapy agents in clinical use against prostate cancer. Silybinโphytosome, a commercially available formulation containing silibinin, has recently been studied in a phase I clinical trial. The

## Abstract Prostate derived factor (PDF) is a member of transforming growth factorโฮฒ (TGFโฮฒ) superfamily proteins involved in differentiation of the prostate epithelium. Proprotein convertases (PCs) such as furin are thought to mediate the processing of TGFโฮฒ superfamily. In the present study, we
Progression to androgen independence remains the main problem that impacts on survival and quality of life in prostate cancer patients. We have investigated the potency of tributyrin, an orally available prodrug of butyrate, to induce growth arrest, differentiation and apoptosis in LNCaP, PC-3 and T
data indicate that antiprogestins and antiestrogens could inhibit prostate cancer cell growth in vitro and in vivo. The main objective of the present studies was to explore the role of bcl 2 and TGFโค 1 for induction of apoptosis in LNCaP prostate cancer cells growing in culture as a treatment respon
## Abstract 2โMethoxyestradiol, a wellโknown nonpolar endogenous metabolite of 17ฮฒโestradiol, has been shown to selectively induce apoptosis in a number of cancer cell lines, but not in normal cells. The mechanism of 2โmethoxyestradiolโinduced apoptosis appears to vary considerably in different cel
## Abstract Iejimalide B, a marine macrolide, causes growth inhibition in a variety of cancer cell lines at nanomolar concentrations. We have investigated the effects of Iejimalide B on cell cycle kinetics and apoptosis in the p53^+^/AR^+^ LNCaP and p53^โ^/AR^โ^ PCโ3 prostate cancer cell lines. Iej
