MEK4 function, genistein treatment, and invasion of human prostate cancer cells.

J Natl Cancer Inst 101(16):1141-55 (2009) PMID 19638505

Dietary intake of genistein by patients with prostate cancer has been associated with decreased metastasis and mortality. Genistein blocks activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and thus inhibits matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) expression and cell invasion in cultured cells and inhibits metastasis of human prostate cancer cells in mice. We investigated the target for genistein in prostate cancer cells.
