Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Multi-omic technologies have greatly expanded our understanding of prostate cancer progression, heterogeneity, and treatment response. Integrated analyses incorporating genomic, epigenomic, transcriptomic, or proteomic information have made significant contributions to the field, spurring notable advancements. Novel insights into tumor microenvironment interactions, androgen receptor signaling, responses to novel treatment modalities, and immune modulation continue to emerge, especially when researchers utilize clinical specimens with these technologies. Advances in single-cell and spatial multi-omics are especially exciting, as they expand our ability to resolve cellular complexity in prostate cancer. This Special Issue aims to highlight novel discoveries in prostate cancer made using integrated analyses of omics technologies. The goal of this collection is to enhance our understanding of transforming these data into clinically relevant and translational information, and to shine a spotlight on such discoveries, representing significant contributions to this research field.
