Key result

In androgen-sensitive prostate cancer LNCaP cells, depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores by thapsigargin triggers apoptosis without requiring the activation of store-operated Ca2+ current.

Overview

Hypothesis-generating for Ca2+ store depletion as an apoptosis trigger in prostate cancer independent of SOCE; requires in vivo validation before therapeutic exploration.

Structured PICO

P
Population
In vitro study using androgen-sensitive human prostate cancer LNCaP cells to investigate apoptosis mechanisms.
I
Intervention
Thapsigargin (TG) (0.1 microM)
O
Outcome
Induction of apoptosis and characterization of store-operated Ca2+ current (Istore)surrogate

Depletion of intracellular calcium stores triggers apoptosis in prostate cancer cells independently of store-operated calcium entry.

Cite This Study

Skryma et al. (2000) studied Prostate cancer. Thapsigargin (TG) was evaluated on Apoptosis and store-operated Ca2+ current (Istore). In androgen-sensitive prostate cancer LNCaP cells, depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores by thapsigargin triggers apoptosis without requiring the activation of store-operated Ca2+ current.
