BCL2 and Familial prostate cancer: We found that poly(rC)-binding protein 2 (PCBP2) was the target protein of Curcusone C. In addition, Curcusone C might disrupt the Bax/Bcl-2 balance in PC-3 cells by inhibiting the expression of the target protein PCBP2, thereby inducing mitochondrial damage and activation of the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway, and ultimately inducing apoptosis of prostate cancer cells.
