Source:
Type:
Members of the caspase family of proteases play essential roles in the initiation and execution of apoptosis. These caspases are divided into two groups: the initiator caspases (caspase-2, −8, −9 and −10), which are the first to be activated in response to a signal, and the executioner caspases (caspase-3, −6, and −7) that carry out the demolition phase of apoptosis. Downregulation of caspase-3 is an effective apoptosis-evading mechanism frequently observed in cancer cells in association with acquired chemoresistance to apoptosis-inducing anticancer drugs. Indeed, re-expression of caspase-3 often restores sensitivity to apoptosis.
Caspase-7:
Role: Executioner caspase similar to caspase-3.
Cancers: Expression levels can vary; often studied in breast and prostate cancers.
Prognosis: Its prognostic value is less clear and may depend on the cancer type.

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.
