Low tRNA

Caption

Microscope image of human prostate cancer with a low amount of a distinct tRNA, as shown in few areas of pink staining. Low amounts of a specific tRNA (called tRNA1Arg(UCU)) in prostate tumors were associated with the tumor being less androgen receptor dependent and therefore less likely to respond to androgen receptor targeting therapies.
