Molecular genetics of prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer afflicts one man in nine over the age of 65 and represents the most frequently diagnosed cancer in American men (Coffey 1993). Early detection through serum testing for prostate specific antigen (PSA) and improved procedures for surgical intervention and radiation therapy have significantly reduced the number of fatalities; however, there is still no effective cure for men with ...
متن کاملMolecular genetics of prostate cancer: new prospects for old challenges.
Despite much recent progress, prostate cancer continues to represent a major cause of cancer-related mortality and morbidity in men. Since early studies on the role of the androgen receptor that led to the advent of androgen deprivation therapy in the 1940s, there has long been intensive interest in the basic mechanisms underlying prostate cancer initiation and progression, as well as the poten...
متن کاملGenetics and Molecular Aspects of Prostate Cancer: Review
Inspite of progress in diagnosis, treatment prostate cancer has become one of the most frequent lethal cancers in males. Rate of detection of prostate cancer varies widely across the world. Research on molecular biology of prostate cancer is expected to give new insight of improving, distinguishing slow growing from aggressive clinically relevant cancers and provide target for treatment. Tradit...
