Data pertaining to aberrant intracellular calcium handling during androgen deprivation therapy in prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT: The data generated here in relates to the research article "CaV1.3 enhanced store operated calcium promotes resistance to androgen deprivation in prostate cancer". A model of prostate cancer (PCa) progression to castration resistance was employed, with untreated androgen sensitive LNCaP cell line alongside two androgen deprived (bicalutamide) sublines, either 10 days (LNCaP-ADT) or 2 years (LNCaP-ABL) treatment, in addition to androgen insensitive PC3. With this PCa model, qPCR was used to examined fold change in markers linked to androgen resistance, androgen receptor (AR) and neuron specific enolase (NSE), observing an increase under androgen deprivation. In addition, the gene expression of a range of calcium channels was measured, with only the L-type Voltage gated calcium channel, CACNA1D, demonstrating an increase during androgen deprivation. With CACNA1D knockdown the channel was found not to influence the gene expression of calcium channels, ORAI1 and STIM1. The calcium channel blocker (CCB), nifedipine, was employed to determine the impact of CaV1.3 on the observed store release and calcium entry measured via Fura-2AM ratiometric dye in our outlined PCa model. In both the presence and absence of androgen deprivation, nifedipine was found to have no impact on store release induced by thapsigargin (Tg) in 0mM Ca²⁺ nor store operated calcium entry (SOCE) following the addition of 2mM Ca²⁺. However, CACNA1D siRNA knockdown was able to reduce SOCE in PC3 cells. The effect of nifedipine on CaV1.3 in PCa biology was measured through cell proliferation assay, with no observed change in the presence of CCB. While siCACNA1D reduced PC3 cell proliferation. This data can be reused to inform new studies investigating altered calcium handling in androgen resistant prostate cancer. It provides insight into the mechanism of CaV1.3 and its functional properties in altered calcium in cancer, which can be of use to researchers investigating this channel in disease. Furthermore, it could be helpful in interpreting studies investigating CCB's as a therapeutic and in the development of future drugs targeting CaV1.3.

Project description:ContextAndrogen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer (PCa) represents one of the most effective systemic palliative treatments known for solid tumors. Although clinical trials have assessed the role of ADT in patients with metastatic and advanced locoregional disease, the risk-benefit ratio, especially in earlier stages, remains poorly defined. Given the mounting evidence for potentially life-threatening adverse effects with short- and long-term ADT, it is important to redefine the role of ADT for this disease.ObjectiveReview the published experience with currently available ADT approaches in various contemporary clinical settings of PCa and reported serious treatment-related adverse events. This review addresses the level of evidence associated with the use of ADT in PCa, focusing upon survival outcome measures. Furthermore, this paper discusses evolving approaches targeting androgen receptor signaling pathways and emerging evidence from clinical trials with newer compounds.Evidence acquisitionA comprehensive review of the literature was performed, focusing on data from the last 10 yr (January 2000 to July 2011) and using the terms androgen deprivation, hormone treatment, prostate cancer and adverse effects. Abstracts from trials reported at international conferences held in 2010 and 2011 were also evaluated.Evidence synthesisData from randomized controlled trials and population-based studies were analyzed in different clinical paradigms. Specifically, the role of ADT was evaluated in patients with nonmetastatic disease as the primary and sole treatment, in combination with radiation therapy (RT) or after surgery, and in patients with metastatic disease. The data suggest that in men with nonmetastatic disease, the use of primary ADT as monotherapy has not shown a benefit and is not recommended, while ADT combined with conventional-dose RT (<72Gy) for patients with high-risk disease may delay progression and prolong survival. The postoperative use of ADT remains poorly evaluated in prospective studies. Likewise, there are no trials evaluating the role of ADT in patients with biochemical relapses after surgery or RT. In patients with metastatic disease, there is a clear benefit in terms of quality of life, reduction of disease-associated morbidity, and possibly survival. Treatment with bilateral orchiectomy, luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonist therapy, with and without antiandrogens has been associated with various serious adverse events, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and skeletal complications that may also affect mortality.ConclusionsAlthough ADT is an effective treatment of PCa, consistent long-term benefits in terms of quality and quantity of life are predominantly evident in patients with advanced/metastatic disease or when ADT is used in combination with RT (<72Gy) in patients with high-risk tumors. Implementation of ADT should be evidence based, with special consideration to adverse events and the risk-benefit ratio.
