Article Abstract

Background: Advanced prostate cancer (PCa) is often resistant to immunotherapy. In this study, we examined the role of CD276 in mediating immunotherapeutic effects through changes in immune cell infiltration.

Methods: Using transcriptomic and proteomic analyses, CD276 was identified as a potential target for immunotherapy. Subsequent in vivo and in vitro experiments confirmed its role as a potential mediator of immunotherapeutic effects.

Results: Multi-omic analysis suggested that CD276 was identified as a key molecule regulating the immune microenvironment (IM). In vivo experiments revealed that CD276 knockdown was found to enhance CD8 T cell infiltration into the IM. Immunohistochemical analysis of PCa samples further confirmed the same findings.

Conclusion: CD276 was found to inhibit the enrichment of CD8+ T cells in PCa. Thus, CD276 inhibitors may be potential targets for immunotherapy.

Importance: Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with or without prostate biopsy, has become the standard of care for diagnosing clinically significant prostate cancer. Resource capacity limits widespread adoption. Biparametric MRI, which omits the gadolinium contrast sequence, is a shorter and cheaper alternative offering time-saving capacity gains for health systems globally.

Objective: This study aims to systematically evaluate the inter- and intra-observer agreement regarding lesions with uncertain malignancy potential in Ga-68 PSMA PET/CT imaging of prostate cancer patients, utilizing the PSMA-RADS 2.0 classification system, and to emphasize the malignancy evidence associated with these lesions.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed Ga-68 PSMA PET/CT images of patients diagnosed with prostate cancer via histopathology between December 2016 and November 2023.

Influence of life expectancy on shared decision-making for prostate cancer screening.

Cancer Causes Control

September 2025

Department of Population Health Sciences, Weill Cornell Medicine, New York, NY, USA.

Purpose: The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommends that men aged 55-69 years undergo shared decision-making (SDM) regarding prostate cancer (PCa) screening, and routine screening is not recommended for older men or those with limited life expectancy.

Oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs), condensed tannins found plentiful in grape seeds and berries, have higher bioavailability and therapeutic benefits due to their low degree of polymerization. Recent evidence places OPCs as effective modulators of cancer stem cell (CSC) plasticity and tumor growth. Mechanistically, OPCs orchestrate multi-pathway inhibition by destabilizing Wnt/β-catenin, Notch, PI3K/Akt/mTOR, JAK/STAT3, and Hedgehog pathways, triggering β-catenin degradation, silencing stemness regulators (OCT4, NANOG, SOX2), and stimulating tumor-suppressive microRNAs (miR-200, miR-34a).
