Background: Studies have shown that glucocorticoid receptor (GR) has inconsistent effects on the proliferation of prostate cancer cells, we found dexamethasone inhibited the proliferation of androgen receptor-negative prostate cancer cells, but the underlying mechanisms remain to be illustrated. Methods: GR expression and its prognosis role were analyzed based on the TCGA dataset. Bioinformatic analysis was performed to identify the candidate of GR downstream, which includes FOXO3a. After overexpressing FOXO3a in PC-3 cells, cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and migration assays were performed to evaluate cell proliferation and migration ability. Regulation of FOXO3a on GAS5 was also analyzed by JASPAR and PCR. Results: GR had low expression in prostate cancer and predicted poor prognosis. FOXO3a was identified as the downstream of GR to inhibit the proliferation of prostate cancer cells. Moreover, FOXO3a directly induces GAS5 expression, forming the GR-FOXO3a-GAS5 signaling pathway. Conclusion: Our study showed that GR played a role as a tumor suppressor gene in androgen receptor-negative prostate cancer cells via the GR-FOXO3a-GAS5 axis. Our results suggested patients with prostate cancer should be classified and develop a treatment plan according to the expression of AR and GR. |
