ATRA inhibits the proliferation of DU145 prostate cancer cells through reducing the methylation level of HOXB13 gene.
All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) has been widely investigated for treatments of many cancers including prostate cancer. HOXB13, silenced in androgen receptor-negative (AR(-)) prostate cancer cells, plays a role in AR(-) prostate cancer cell growth arrest. In this study we intended to elucidate the mec...
