15-Lipoxygenase-1 Expression Upregulates and Activates Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 Receptor in Prostate Cancer Cells

We previously discovered that a fat-metabolizing enzyme, 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LO-1), is high in human prostate cancer (PCa) and correlates with disease progression. The biologic link between the aberrant 15-LO-1/linoleic acid (LA) metabolism and fat (which is a rich source of growth factors) in PC...
