Abstract
Depression induces secretion of neuropeptide Y from prostate cancer cells, which, in turn, recruits myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) to the tumor; tumor cells and MDSCs secrete IL6, which activates STAT3 within cancer cells. Prostate cancer samples from depressed patients reveal a similar phenotype, suggesting new treatment strategies based upon blockade of β2-adrenergic receptors and/or neuropeptide Y.See related article by Cheng et al., p. 2621. ©2019 American Association for Cancer Research.Entities:
