Abstract:
The regulation of systemic immune responses is dependent on individual cell responses that will concur to induce a coherent response against a stimulus. In turn, cell response is dependent on the processing of intracellular signals generated at the cell membrane and transmitted through successive protein modifications to the nucleus in order to activate gene transcription. This is referred to as intracellular signalling. Tight control of these mechanisms is required to generate an appropriate cell response to environmental stimulations and globally to establish an appropriate immune response.

The ubiquitin‐proteasome system (UPS) and autophagy, the two major intracellular protein degradation systems, play a critical role in the regulation and maintenance of cellular homeostasis.

Autophagy, or self‐eating, is a lysosomal degradation pathway in charge of recycling dysfunctional organelles and aggregated proteins.

Breast cancer is the most prevalent form of cancer in women and accounts for 519,000 annual deaths (WHO Statistics). It has long been established that oestrogen (E2) stimulates tumour growth of oestrogen receptor (ER) positive breast cancer and is involved in the pathogenesis of the disease. Consequently, therapeutic approaches targeting the ER were developed. The use of endocrine therapy is an integral component in treating breast cancer however resistance to such drugs is a major limitation. Unfortunately, even initially responding tumours eventually develop resistance - acquired resistance.

Chronic IL-6 signalling contributes to the pathophysiology of many diseases including prostate cancer. Relevant to prostate cancer is the ability of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 to activate the oncogenic signalling protein STAT3, thus inhibition of STAT3 activation is a popular avenue of research to augment prostate cancer therapies. In this study, the endogenous anti-inflammatory molecule cAMP was investigated as a mechanism by which to inhibit IL-6-induced STAT3 activation in the DU145, LNCaP and PZ-HPV-7 prostate epithelial cells.
