Blocking Signaling Protein Prevents Prostate Cancer Spread, Scientists Find

Researchers have shown that by blocking a signaling protein, they can prevent prostate cancer cells from metastasizing. In a series of experiments in both the laboratory and animal models, they found that the protein, Stat3, is key to the metastatic progression of prostate cancer. The work opens the door to studies examining the protein as a target for therapies to keep prostate cancer at bay.
