Title: Heparan Sulfate in prostate cancer (标题：硫酸乙酰肝素 前列腺癌)

 

The major goal of this project is to investigate if Pten-loss leads to aberrant heparin sulfate expression creating a unique cellular environment that potentiates prostatic tumorigenesis. This study will reveal the aberrant HS expression as a novel biomarker for early diagnosis and prognosis in prostate cancer. 该项目的主要目的是研究Pten的丢失是否导致硫酸肝素的异常表达，从而创造一个独特的细胞环境，增强前列腺肿瘤的发生。本研究将揭示HS异常表达作为前列腺癌早期诊断和预后的一个新的生物标志物。

Title: Targeting myristoylation of Src family kinases for inhibition of prostate tumorigenesis (标题：Src家族激酶靶向肉豆蔻酰化抑制前列腺癌的发生)

 

The major goal of this project is to investigate if loss of myristoylation will attenuate SFK-induced tumorigenesis, inhibit Src kinase to interact with down-stream substrates such as androgen receptor, and suppress SFK-mediated paracrine signaling and over-expression of FGF10-induced tumorigenesis. 本项目的主要目的是研究肉豆蔻酰化丢失是否会减弱SFK诱导的肿瘤发生，抑制Src激酶与雄激素受体等下游底物的相互作用，抑制SFK介导的旁分泌信号和FGF10诱导的肿瘤发生的过度表达
