The tumorigenesis and development of PCa is a multi-channel, multi-link, multi-level and highly complex regulatory process, in which many signaling pathways, such as AR signaling pathway, STAT3 signaling pathway, Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, play diverse roles in the process of EMT mediated PCa metastasis (Fearon et al., 2012; Murata and Kang, 2018; Shorning et al., 2020). This evidence concerns the gene AR and posterior cortical atrophy.
