Prostate-specific antigen-activated thapsigargin prodrug as targeted therapy for prostate cancer.
BACKGROUND: Standard anti-proliferative chemotherapy is relatively ineffective against slowly proliferating androgen-independent prostate cancer cells within metastatic sites. In contrast, the lipophilic cytotoxin thapsigargin, which causes apoptosis by disrupting intracellular free Ca2+ levels, is...
