Prostatic acid phosphatase in serum of patients with prostatic cancer is a specific phosphotyrosine acid phosphatase.
We developed an assay to measure at acid pH the phosphotyrosine phosphatase activity in sera from patients with prostatic cancer. The method used quantifies the inorganic phosphate liberated from phosphotyrosine after incubation with serum, followed by the deproteinization of the reaction mixture. A high acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) activity towards phosphotyrosine was observed in all sera fro...
متن کاملProstatic Acid Phosphatase: A Potpourri*
In 1938, Gutman et al. (6) described increased levels of acid phosphatase in metastatic carcinoma of the prostate. Since then, when most of us hear the term "acid phosphatase" we immediately think of prostatic cancer, and justifiably so. The link, however, between the test and the diagnosis is not as clear and simple as many of us would like to believe. I would first like to discuss this enzyme...
متن کاملProstatic acid phosphatase in breast cyst fluid.
Prostatic Acid Phosphatase (PAP) is mostly found in the epithelial cells and secretions of the prostate gland. It has also been found to be present in several tissues and biological fluid. Gross cystic breast disease is the commonest benign breast condition and several studies have shown that women with palpable breast cysts may have a higher risk of developing breast cancer. There are two type...
متن کاملProstatic acid phosphatase expression in human tissues.
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer deaths among males in most Western countries. Autologous cellular immunotherapy for the treatment of cancer seeks to induce tumor-specific immunity in the patient and is consequently dependent on a suitable target antigen and effective presentation of that antigen to the patient's immune system. Prostatic acid phos...
متن کاملProstatic acid phosphatase degrades lysophosphatidic acid in seminal plasma.
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a lipid mediator with multiple biological activities and is detected in various biological fluids, including human seminal plasma. Due to its cell proliferation stimulatory and anti-apoptotic activities, LPA has been implicated in the progression of some cancers such as ovarian cancer and prostate cancer. Here, we show that prostatic acid phosphatase, which is a n...
