“We demonstrated that the combination of ATRA and zoledronic acid is a strong inducer of apoptotic related cell death in human androgen-and drug refractory prostate cancer cells DU-145, at either transcriptional or translational levels.”
“We report that all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) in combination with zoledronic acid has strong synergistic cytotoxic and apoptotic effects against human hormone- and drug-refractory prostate cancer cells, PC-3 and DU-145, in a time- and dose-dependent manner.”
