Type: TSG
Caspase-8 is a unique member of caspases with a dual role in cell death and survival. Caspase-8 expression is often lost in some tumors, but increased in others, indicating a potential pro-survival function in cancer.
Caspase-8 (Casp8) acts as an initiator in cell apoptosis signaling. However, the role of Casp8 in tuning the tumor immune microenvironment remains controversial due to the complicated crosstalk between immune-tolerogenic apoptotic cell death and immunogenic cell death cascades.

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.
