MiR-205-driven downregulation of cholesterol biosynthesis through SQLE-inhibition identifies therapeutic vulnerability in aggressive prostate cancer

Cholesterol metabolism is involved in the progression of aggressive prostate cancer (PCa). Here the authors show that miR-205 downregulation promotes cholesterol synthesis and androgen receptor signalling in PCa through enhancing the expression of the rate-limiting enzyme of cholesterol synthesis, s...

description Cholesterol metabolism is involved in the progression of aggressive prostate cancer (PCa). Here the authors show that miR-205 downregulation promotes cholesterol synthesis and androgen receptor signalling in PCa through enhancing the expression of the rate-limiting enzyme of cholesterol synthesis, squalene epoxidase.
