We and others have previously described that the androgen-responsive human prostatic carcinoma cell line LNCaP is resistant to TRAIL and that TRAIL-mediated apoptosis in LNCaP is PI3K/Akt-dependent. In this study, we found that LNCaP remained resistant to treatment with TRAIL after androgen deprivation even in the presence of the PI3K/Akt pathway inhibitor… (More)
