Leflunomide triggers synthetic lethality in PTEN-deficient prostate cancer
BACKGROUND: The loss of PTEN function presents in up to 50% of late-stage prostate cancers, and is therefore a potential target for therapeutics. PTEN-deficient cells depend on de novo pyrimidine synthesis, a feature which can present a vulnerability. METHODS: We utilized in vitro growth assays and...
