Model of HoxB13-mediated AR-V7 oncogenic function. (A) AR-V7 genomic binding is dependent on HoxB13, and genes up-regulated by AR-V7 are heterogeneous between distinct CRPC patients, ultimately leading to tumor cell proliferation. (B) HoxB13 targeting is sufficient to inhibit CRPC tumor growth.

Comment on

  • Diverse AR-V7 cistromes in castration-resistant prostate cancer are governed by HoxB13.
