Furthermore, the expression of prostate-specific receptor is increased significantly in prostate tumors in comparison with the matched normal prostate tissues using PCR and Southern blot analysis, suggesting a potential role of this tissue-specific G-protein coupled receptor in prostate cancer development.
G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR)-stimulated androgen-independent activation of androgen receptor (AR) contributes to acquisition of a hormone-refractory phenotype by prostate cancer.
The gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR), a G protein-coupled receptor, is overexpressed in solid malignancies and particularly in prostate cancer.
In the present study, we identify that RNA splicing of the G protein-coupled receptor kinase-interacting protein 1 (GIT1) gene is a unique event in t-NEPC patients.
The prostate-specific G protein-coupled receptor (PSGR) is a class A G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that is specifically expressed in prostate epithelial cells, and its expression has been linked to prostate cancer (PCa) progression.
