High-throughput Drug Screening Identifies Fluoxetine as a Potential Therapeutic Agent for Neuroendocrine Prostate Cancer
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Here, we performed a high-throughput drug screening and identified fluoxetine, originally an FDA-approved antidepressant, as candidate therapeutic agent for NEPC. In vitro experiments revealed that fluoxetine effectively curbed the neuroendocrine differentiation and inhibited the cell viability by targeting the AKT pathway. Altogether, this work repurposed fluoxetine for antitumor application, and supported its clinical development for NEPC therapy, which may provide a promising therapeutic strategy.
