  • Method of inhibiting prostate cancer cell proliferation
    Publication number: 20110195915
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of inhibiting or reducing the proliferation of prostate cancer cells, such as androgen independent prostate cancer (AIPC) cells, the method comprising administering to the cells a PLA2 inhibitor. In one embodiment the PLA2 inhibitor is a conformationally constrained molecule derived from a peptide consisting essentially of amino acid residues 70-74 of a human sPLA2-IIA protein, or the equivalent residues in other sPLA2 proteins.
