Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) presents a significant challenge due to its resistance to conventional androgen deprivation therapies. Urolithins, bioactive metabolites derived from ellagitannins, have recently emerged as promising therapeutic agents for CRPC. Urolithins not only inhibit androgen receptor (AR) signaling, a crucial factor in the progression of CRPC, but also play a key role in regulating oxidative stress by their antioxidant properties, thereby inhibiting increased reactive oxygen species, a common feature of the aggressive nature of CRPC. Research has shown that urolithins induce apoptosis and diminish pro-survival signaling, leading to tumor inhibition. This review delves into the intricate mechanisms through which urolithins exert their therapeutic effects, focusing on both AR-dependent and AR-independent pathways. It also explores the exciting potential of combining urolithins with androgen ablation therapy, opening new avenues for CRPC treatment.
