Type:
A-SMase expression correlates inversely with tumour stage in human melanoma biopsies.In melanoma, expression of acid sphingomyelinase decreases with tumor progression in both humans and mice. A-SMase expression correlates inversely with tumour stage in human melanoma biopsies.

The SMase family includes different isoenzymes mainly distinguished by their optimal pH:
-Acid sphingomyelinase (aSMase):Encoded by the gene SMPD1.Functions optimally at acidic pH.
-Neutral sphingomyelinases (nSMases):(nSMase1, nSMase2, nSMase3) encoded by genes SMPD2, SMPD3.
-Alkaline sphingomyelinases: typically found in the intestinal tract.

aSMase expression or activity is reduced compared to normal tissue. Lower aSMase activity can lead to decreased ceramide generation, potentially allowing cancer cells to avoid apoptosis.

In many cancer-related studies where the term “SMase” is used without further specification, the discussion may center on aSMase because of its link to ceramide production and apoptosis under stress conditions (such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy).

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.
