Given the clinical significance of both PDGF and Mcl-1 in PCa bone metastasis [21], [51], specific targeting of PDGF-Mcl-1 survival pathway in PCa cells (autocrine signaling) and co-targeting of microenvironment (paracrine signaling) could provide a new strategy to disrupt the vicious cycle and efficaciously treat metastatic PCa. Here, MCL1 is linked to posterior cortical atrophy.
