UCH-L1 and UCH-L3 regulate the cancer stem cell-like properties through PI3 K/Akt signaling pathway in prostate cancer cells

Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is a highly aggressive and advanced prostate cancer that is currently incurable with conventional therapies. The recurrence and chemotherapy-resistant properties of CRPC are attributed to prostate cancer stem cells (CSCs). On the other hand, the factors re...
