Chronic IL-1 exposure drives LNCaP cells to evolve androgen and AR independence
Published in PloS one (16-12-2020)“…Chronic inflammation promotes prostate cancer (PCa) initiation and progression. We previously reported that acute intereluekin-1 (IL-1) exposure represses…”

IL-1-conferred gene expression pattern in ERα + BCa and AR + PCa cells is intrinsic to ERα - BCa and AR - PCa cells and promotes cell survival
Published in BMC cancer (20-01-2020)“…Breast (BCa) and prostate (PCa) cancers are hormone receptor (HR)-driven cancers. Thus, BCa and PCa patients are given therapies that reduce hormone levels or…”

RELA is sufficient to mediate interleukin‐1 repression of androgen receptor expression and activity in an LNCaP disease progression model
Published in The Prostate (01-02-2020)“…Background The androgen receptor (AR) nuclear transcription factor is a therapeutic target for prostate cancer (PCa). Unfortunately, patients can develop…”

Identification of an IL‐1‐induced gene expression pattern in AR+ PCa cells that mimics the molecular phenotype of AR− PCa cells
Published in The Prostate (01-06-2018)“…Background In immunosurveillance, bone‐derived immune cells infiltrate the tumor and secrete inflammatory cytokines to destroy cancer cells. However, cancer…”
