Grant Activity:
Characterising an RNA splicing pathway driving prostate cancer metastasis and therapy resistance
Purpose:
Prostate cancer is lethal when it spreads to other organs, and becomes resistant to conventional therapies that target androgen signaling. We have identified a novel pathway involving an RNA splicing factor (QKI-5) that is induced as tumours progress to this lethal stage. QKI-5 also increases when androgens are deprived, and may enable tumour cells adapt to these therapies. This proposal will assess whether the QKI-5-splicing pathway drives prostate cancer metastasis and therapy resistance.
