Abstract Background: Transmembrane emp24 trafficking protein 3 (TMED3) is associated with the development of several tumors; however, whether TMED3 regulates the progression of prostate cancer remains unclear. Materials and Methods: Short hairpin RNA was performed to repress TMED3 in prostate cancer cells (DU145 cells) and in a prostate cancer mice model to determine its function in prostate cancer in vitro and in vivo. Results: In the present study, we found that TMED3 was highly expressed in prostate cancer cells. In vitro, shTMED3 treatment suppressed the proliferation, invasion, and migration and promoted the apoptosis of DU145 cells. Additionally, the Kyoto Encyclopedia… More >
