What is Prostate cancer liver metastasis: Dormancy and resistance to therapy about?
Liver metastasis causes nearly half of death from solid tumors. Metastatic lesions, to the liver in particular, can become detectable years or decades after primary tumor removal, leaving an uncertain long-term prognosis in patients. Prostate cancer (PCa), a prominent metastatic dormant cancer, has the worst prognosis when found in the liver compared to other metastatic sites. These metastatic nodules display a therapy resistance in the liver pro-metastatic microenvironment; the resistance appears to be conferred by both dormancy and independent of dormancy when the nodules emerge. Within the review, the molecular underpinnings of how the liver aids and protects PCa cells seeding, colonization and resistance will be discussed.
