5'-nucleotidase activity in prostatic carcinoma and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
In light of previous reports of alterations in 5'-nucleotidase activity in neoplastic conditions, 5'-nucleotidase activity was examined histochemically in tissue sections and quantified biochemically in extracts of human hyperplastic prostates and prostatic carcinomas obtained surgically. The 5'-nucleotidase activities per mg protein in extracts of 29 prostatic carcinomas were lower (P less tha...
متن کاملComparison of Matrix Metalloproteinases 2 mRNA Expression in Prostatic Adenocarcinoma and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Background and Aims: Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men worldwide in men. Matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) has a role in the invasion and destruction of the basement membrane and the extra-cellular matrix and facilitating the process of tumor cell invasion. The present study was conducted to compare the expression of MMP2 gene in prostate cancer (PCa) and benign prostatic ...
متن کاملArginase activity in prostatic tissue of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostatic carcinoma.
We studied arginase activity in human prostatic tissue in 15 patients with benign hyperplasia and 27 patients with prostatic carcinoma. Arginase specific activity is greater (p less than 0.0001) in prostatic carcinomas than in hyperplastic prostates. Arginase specific activity is correlated inversely (p less than 0.0001) with the histological grade of the tumor.
متن کاملBenign prostatic hyperplasia.
This article reviews the epidemiology of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), evaluation of patients with lower urinary tract symptomatology (LUTS), and management of patients with BPH and LUTS. The evaluation includes history and physical examination, laboratory testing, and specialized studies. The management includes medical and surgical options. Medical options include alpha-1-adrenergic rec...
متن کاملBenign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Urinary obstruction as a result of benign prostatic disease has probably been recognized to some degree since the earl iest days of medicine. This association was probably f irst formalized by Riolan in the seventeenth century. In the mideighteenth century, Morgagni (248) provided one of the earl iest descriptions of BPH and enumerated many of the potential medical problems attendant to its dev...
