Recent Publications

Below are a list of recent publications from our laboratory. Also included are a list of Dr Sved’s additional recent publications.

Development of novel treatments for advanced form of prostate cancer

1) Chetcuti A, Margan S, Russell P, Mann S, Handelsman D, Rogers J and Dong Q. Annexin II, a marker for prostate cancer and its precursors. Cancer Res 61:6331-4, 2001

Reported the silencing of Annexin II, an endogenous phospholipase A2 inhibitor, in prostate cancer tissue and possible mechanism for the silencing.

2) Sved P, Scott KF, McLeod D, King NJC, Singh J, Tsatralis T, Nikolov B, Bolus J, Nallan L, Gelb MH, Sajinovic M, Russell PJ, and Dong Q. Oncogenic action of secreted phospholipase A2 in prostate cancer. Cancer Res 64:6934-40, 2004

Provided evidence that secreted phospholipase A2 expression increases in hormone refractory prostate cancer tissues and the potential of targeting this form of phospholipase A2.

3) Patel MI, Singh J, Niknami M Kurek C, Yao M, Lu S, Maclean F, King NJC, Gelb MH, Scott KF, Russell PJ, Boulas J, and Dong Q. Cytosolic phospholipase A2-a: A potential therapeutic target for prostate cancer. Clin Cancer Res 14:8070-9, 2008

Examined the cytosolic form of phospholipase A2 and provide evidence that this is a better target for treating prostate cancer.

4) Dong Q, Patel M, Scott K, G Graham, Russell P and Sved P. Annexin and phospholipase A2 in prostate cancer. Cancer Letters, 240:9-16, 2006

5) Niknami M., Patel M., Witting P.K., and Dong Q. Cytosolic Phospholipase A2. Int. J. Biochem. Cell. Biol. 41(5):994-7, 2008

6) Patel M, Kurek C, and Dong Q. The arachidonic acid pathway and its role in prostate cancer development and progression. J Urol, 179:1668,2008

The above 3 papers provided evidence for the significance the arachidonic signaling pathway in prostate cancer and justification of targeting phospholipase A2 for treatment.

7) Assinder, S., Dong, Q., Kovacevic, Z. and Richardson, D.R. (2009) The AKT, PTEN and TGF-? pathways: Establised and proposed biochemical integration in prostate cancer. Biochem. J. 2009 417(2):411-21.

The above paper included the hypothesis how phospholipase A2 interact with oncogenic an tumour suppressive pathways.

Development of novel prevention strategy for patients on Active surveillance

8) Singh J, Xie C, Yao M, Hua S, Vignarajan S, Jardine G, Hambly BD, Sved P, Dong Q. Food Extracts Consumed in Mediterranean Countries and East Asia Reduce Protein Concentrations of Androgen Receptor, Phospho-Protein Kinase B, and Phospho-Cytosolic Phospholipase A2 in Human prostate Cancer Cells. J Nutrition, (online on Feb 24, 2010)

With the ultimate aim of developing a food-based chemoprevention strategy to retard cancer progression in these otherwise healthy men, the team has tested a blend of food extracts developed by an Australian company in Queensland (Dr Red). The food extracts decreased prostate cancer cell growth and key signaling pathways in vitro and in vivo.
