Prostate cancer (PCa) is a common malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality worldwide. The prostate cancer stem cell (PCSC) model provides novel insights into the pathogenesis of PCa and its therapeutic response. However, the roles and molecular mechanisms of specific genes in mediating fate decisions of PCSCs and carcinogenesis of PCa remain to be elusive. In this study, we have explored the expression, function, and mechanism of AZGP1P2, a pseudogene of AZGP1, in regulating the stemness and apoptosis of PCSCs and treatment resistance of docetaxel in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). We revealed that AZGP1P2 was downregulated in CRPC cell lines and PCSCs, while it was positively associated with progression-free interval. Upregulation of the AZGP1P2 enhanced the sensitivity of docetaxel treatment in CRPCs via inhibiting their stemness. RNA pull-down associated with mass spectrometry analysis, co-immunoprecipitation assay, and RNA immunoprecipitation assay demonstrated that AZGP1P2 could bind to UBA1 and RBM15 as a “writer” of methyltransferase to form a compound. UBA1, an E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme, contributed to RBM15 protein degradation via ubiquitination modification. Methylated RNA immunoprecipitation assay displayed that RBM15 controlled the mRNA decay of TPM1 in m6A methylation. Furthermore, a xenograft mouse model and patient-derived organoids showed that the therapeutic effect of docetaxel in CRPC was increased by AZGP1P2 in vivo. Collectively, these results imply that AZGP1P2 mediates the stemness and apoptosis of PCSCs and promotes docetaxel therapeutic effect by suppressing tumor growth and metastasis via UBA1/RBM15-mediated TPM1 mRNA decay in CRPC.

“…Whether this phenomenon can be attributed to the characteristics of cancer stem cells, making them more resistant to the cytotoxicity of Cl80, requires further investigation. It is noteworthy that numerous studies have highlighted the inherent resistance of cancer stem cells to anticancer drugs [38].…”

In response to a global shift towards health-conscious and environmentally sustainable food choices, seaweed has emerged as a focus for researchers due to its large-scale cultivation potential and the development of bioactive substances. This research explores the potential anticancer properties of seaweed extracts, focusing on analyzing the impact of four common edible seaweeds in Taiwan on prostate cancer (PCa) cells’ activity. The study used bioassay-guided fractionation to extract Cl80 from various seaweeds with androgen receptor (AR)-inhibitory activity. Cl80 demonstrated effective suppression of 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT)-induced AR activity in 103E cells and attenuated the growth and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) protein expression in LNCaP and 22Rv1 cells. Additionally, Cl80 exhibited differential effects on various PCa cell lines. Concentrations above 5 μg/mL significantly inhibited LNCaP cell proliferation, while 22Rv1 cells were more resistant to Cl80. PC-3 cell proliferation was inhibited at 5 μg/mL but not completely at 50 μg/mL. A clonogenic assay showed that at a concentration of 0.5 μg/mL, the colony formation in LNCaP and PC-3 cells was significantly reduced, with a dose-dependent effect. Cl80 induced apoptosis in all PCa cell types, especially in LNCaP cells, with increased apoptotic cells observed at higher concentrations. Cl80 also decreased the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) in a dose-dependent manner in all PCa cell lines. Furthermore, Cl80 suppressed the migration ability of PCa cells, with significant reductions observed in LNCaP, 22Rv1, and PC-3 cells at various concentrations. These compelling findings highlight the promising therapeutic potential of C. lentillifera J.Agardh and its isolated compound Cl80 in the treatment of PCa.

“…CSCs play a critical role in cancer progression and recurrence and, thus, have potential as a therapeutic target for cancer therapy [ 43 ]. The present study is the first to support the notion that K + channel inhibition-mediated intracellular signaling may reduce cancer stemness by transcriptionally up-regulating the E3 ubiquitin ligase, FBXW7, in cancer spheroids with CSC properties.…”

The tumor suppressor gene F-box and WD repeat domain-containing (FBXW) 7 reduces cancer stemness properties by promoting the protein degradation of pluripotent stem cell markers. We recently demonstrated the transcriptional repression of FBXW7 by the three-dimensional (3D) spheroid formation of several cancer cells. In the present study, we found that the transcriptional activity of FBXW7 was promoted by the inhibition of the Ca2+-activated K+ channel, KCa1.1, in a 3D spheroid model of human prostate cancer LNCaP cells through the Akt-Nrf2 signaling pathway. The transcriptional activity of FBXW7 was reduced by the siRNA-mediated inhibition of the CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein C/EBP δ (CEBPD) after the transfection of miR223 mimics in the LNCaP spheroid model, suggesting the transcriptional regulation of FBXW7 through the Akt-Nrf2-CEBPD-miR223 transcriptional axis in the LNCaP spheroid model. Furthermore, the KCa1.1 inhibition-induced activation of FBXW7 reduced (1) KCa1.1 activity and protein levels in the plasma membrane and (2) the protein level of the cancer stem cell (CSC) markers, c-Myc, which is a molecule degraded by FBXW7, in the LNCaP spheroid model, indicating that KCa1.1 inhibition-induced FBXW7 activation suppressed CSC conversion in KCa1.1-positive cancer cells.
