| contents | Prostate cancer (PCa) remains a significant global health concern among men, particularly due to the lethality of its more aggressive variants. Despite therapeutic advancements that have enhanced survival for many patients, high grade PCa continues to contribute substantially to cancer related mortality. Emerging evidence points to the MYB proto-oncogene as a critical factor in promoting tumor progression, therapeutic resistance, and disease relapse. Notably, differential expression patterns have been observed, with markedly elevated MYB levels in tumor tissues from Black men relative to their White counterparts potentially offering insight into documented racial disparities in clinical outcomes. This study investigates the association between MYB expression and key oncogenic features, including androgen receptor (AR) signaling, disease progression, and the risk of biochemical recurrence. Employing a multimodal approach that integrates histopathological examination, quantitative digital imaging, and analyses of public transcriptomic datasets, our findings suggest that MYB overexpression is strongly linked to adverse prognosis. These results underscore MYB's potential as a prognostic biomarker and as a candidate for the development of individualized therapeutic strategies. |
