Prostate cancer is a multifactorial, multistep progressive disorder that is undruggable to date because of stumbling blocks in the standardization of therapy. It is triggered by a broad range of proteins, signaling networks and DNA damage response modulators. It is becoming increasingly apparent that DNA repair mediators have split personalities, as they are instrumental in suppressing and promoting carcinogenesis. In this article, we discuss on post-transcriptional processing of regulators of DNA damage response, and how DNA repair proteins trigger shuttling of androgen receptor. Substantial fraction of information has been added into the existing literature of ATM biology; however, the particular area of post-transcriptional processing errors and gene therapy for reprogramming of ATM has been left unaddressed in prostate cancer. It is therefore noteworthy that the facet of targeting strategy, antisense morpholino oligonucleotides chemistry, and systematic delivery of AOs has promising outlook in splice-targeted antisense-mediated therapy.
