Notably, the dependence on increased amino acid transport (i.e., increased expression of the amino acid transporters) for prostate cell growth has been previously reported, as well as the hindered PCa cell growth following inhibition of the ASCT2 glutamine transporter.54, 55 In our study, the levels of ASCT2 decreased following treatment with UA alone as well as its combinations with either CUR or RES. The gene discussed is SLC1A5; the disease is posterior cortical atrophy.
