RNA Splicing Factors SRRM3 and SRRM4 Distinguish Molecular Phenotypes of Castration-Resistant Neuroendocrine Prostate Cancer
abbreviation(缩略表):
- NE
Neuroendocrine, 神经内分泌性 - mCRPC
metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer,转移性去势(去除雄性激素干扰,例如阉割的方法)抵抗性前列腺癌 - AR
androgen receptor,雄性激素受体 - REST
RE1-silencing transcription factor,神经发育相关基因的转录抑制因子 - SRRM4
serine/arginine repetitive matrix protein,SRRM4
与REST
在神经发育过程中相互负向调控(Bushra Raj et al., 2011, Mol Cel) - androgen receptor (AR)-positive NE-positive amphicrine prostate cancer (AMPC)
- AR-negative small cell or neuroendocrine prostate cancer (SCNPC)
- five mCRPC molecular phenotypes:
- AR-high prostate cancer (ARPC);
- AR-low prostate cancer (ARLPC);
- amphicrine prostate cancer (AMPC) composed of tumor cells coexpressing AR and NE programs (ARþ/NEþ);
- double-negative prostate cancer (DNPC) that lacks AR and NE gene expression (AR/NE);
- SCNPC(AR/NEþ)
