Gene responsible for developing prostate cancer identified

...oup found Ack1 activity could be inhibited through interference with its molecular interactions, thus offering a target for treatment.

Scientists Discover Prostate Cancer Triggering Molecule

...he drug called geldanamycin inhibited Ack1 through interference with its molecular interactions, 'If you add geldanamycin to the prostate cancer cell, the drug knocks Hsp90 off oncogenic signaling molecules. This dramatically decreases Ack1 activity and slows tumor formation,' Earp added. The team also found that...
