While osteoclasts (OCLs) initiate bone remodeling through resorption, their contribution to PCa progression appears limited, as pharmacological inhibition with bisphosphonates and RANKL antagonists yields only modest clinical benefit. In contrast, osteoblasts (OBs) exert dual roles, either promoting or restraining tumor growth through context-dependent signaling pathways, including Wnt5a-mediated dormancy and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-\u03b2)\u2013induced epithelial\u2013mesenchymal transition (EMT). Bone-derived growth factors such as insulin-like growth factor I\/II (IGF-I\/II), fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23), and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) further enhance tumor colonization. Osteocytes (OCYs), the most abundant and long-lived bone cells, directly interact with PCa cells and, in response to altered mechanotransduction, release pro-metastatic mediators including CCL5 and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Moreover, PCa cells actively reprogram the bone niche by secreting exosomes and paracrine factors such as parathyroid hormone\u2013related peptide (PTHrP) and Wnt7b, driving OBs and OCYs toward tumor-supportive phenotypes. Together, these reciprocal interactions establish a self-reinforcing cycle of bone remodeling and tumor progression. This review underscores the central role of bone remodeling in PCa bone metastasis and highlights promising therapeutic targets within the PCa\u2013bone axis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.7717\/peerj.21344","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,9]],"date-time":"2026-06-09T08:36:21Z","timestamp":1780994181000},"page":"e21344","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Bone
