FOXO3a and Its Regulators in Prostate Cancer

Forkhead box O3 (FOXO3a) is a member of a subfamily of forkhead transcription factors involved in the basic processes within a cell, including proliferation, apoptosis, cell cycle regulation, and DNA damage. As a transcription factor, FOXO3a is involved in the response to cellular stress, UV radiati...
