Type:
The phosphorylation of PRAS40 is often associated with the tumor progression of melanoma, prostate cancer, etc. Elevated PRAS40-Thr 246 phosphorylation has been reported in several cancer cell lines.

PRAS40 serves as an important mediator linking Akt signaling to mTORC1 activation. In many cancers—such as breast, lung, and colorectal—enhanced Akt activity leads to increased phosphorylation of PRAS40, thereby promoting tumor cell survival, proliferation, and growth. These changes are often associated with more aggressive tumor behavior and poorer outcomes.

Prostate Cancer: Alterations in genes such as ERG, SPOP, MYC, androgen receptor (AR), and CHD1, drive PCa progression.
TP53 is the most commonly mutated gene in human cancer.
HH↑, GLI-1↑, SHH↑ P53↓
The loss of p53 and/or other tumor suppressor genes, reduced capacity for DNA repair, the dysfunction of telomerase activity, and changes in the pathways that govern the growth of cells also mediate the progression of Pca.
It has been well documented that Ca2+ influx and MDR1 upregulation are highly associated with GEM metabolism in human pancreatic carcinoma.
Increased Growth factor IGF-1/IGF-1R axis activation mediated by both PI3K/Akt or RAF/MEK/ERK system and AR expression remains important in the development and progression of prostate cancer.
It has been demonstrated that prostate cancer cells are relatively sensitive to heat stress.
Long non-coding RNA MALAT1 has been reported as an oncogenic target in multiple types of cancers, including PC.
