Cancer is hallmarked by uncontrolled cell proliferation and enhanced cell survival, driven by a complex interplay of factors-including genetic and epigenetic changes-that disrupt metabolic and signaling pathways and impair organelle function. While the roles of mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum in cancer are widely recognized, emerging research is now drawing attention to the involvement of peroxisomes in tumor biology. Peroxisomes are essential for lipid metabolism, including fatty acid α- and β-oxidation, the synthesis of docosahexaenoic acid, bile acids, and ether lipids, as well as maintaining redox balance. Despite their critical functions, the role of peroxisomes in oncogenesis remains inadequately explored. Prostate cancer (PCa), the second most common cancer in men worldwide, exhibits a unique metabolic profile compared to other solid tumors. In contrast to the glycolysis-driven Warburg effect, primary PCa relies primarily on lipogenesis and oxidative phosphorylation. Peroxisomes are intricately involved in the metabolic adaptations of PCa, influencing both disease progression and therapy resistance. Key alterations in peroxisomal activity in PCa include the increased oxidation of branched-chain fatty acids, upregulation of α-methylacyl coenzyme A racemase (a prominent PCa biomarker), and downregulation of 1-alkyl-glycerone-3-phosphate synthase and catalase. This review critically examines the role of peroxisomes in PCa metabolism, progression, and therapeutic response, exploring their potential as biomarkers and targets for therapy. We also consider their relationship with androgen receptor signaling. A deeper understanding of peroxisome biology in PCa could pave the way for new therapies to improve patient outcomes.
