CACNA1D overexpression and voltage-gated calcium channels in prostate cancer during androgen deprivation

Abstract Prostate cancer is often treated by perturbing androgen receptor signalling. CACNA1D, encoding CaV1.3 ion channels is upregulated in prostate cancer. Here we show how hormone therapy affects CACNA1D expression and CaV1.3 function. Human prostate cells (LNCaP, VCaP, C4-2B, normal RWPE-1) and...
