Deskripsi

Anti-androgen therapy inhibits prostate cancer (PC) progression, and is thought to act directly on cancer cells. Here the authors show that androgen receptor is expressed on normal and PC-associated macrophages, and its stimulation alters macrophage secretome to promote migration of cultured PC cell lines.
