PURPOSE Prostatic dihydrotestosterone (DHT) concentration is regulated by precursors from systemic circulation and prostatic enzymes of androgen metabolism, particularly 5alpha-reductases (i.e., SRD5A1 and SRD5A2). Therefore, the levels of expression SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 and the antiprostatic cancer growth response to finasteride, a selective SRD5A2 inhibitor, versus the dual SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 inh...
Serum levels of adiponectin were measured in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer of pT2 and pT3 stage. Adiponectin ELISA assay, immunohistochemistry, and selected metabolic and biochemical parameters measurement was performed in 25 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and 43 with prostate cancer (17 patients with organ-confined and 26 patients with locally advan...
Prostate cancer is the most common solid tumor malignancy worldwide with an estimated 180,000 new cases of prostate cancer and 26,000 deaths in the USA in 2016. Although significant advances in the treatment of prostate cancer have recently been made, the treatment of metastatic disease remains a challenge. With visceral metastases marking more advanced tumor stages, liver involvement is associ...
PURPOSE The influence of androgen deprivation therapy on dihydrotestosterone levels in the prostatic tissue is not clearly known. Changes in dihydrotestosterone levels in the prostatic tissue during androgen deprivation therapy in the same patients have not been reported. We analyzed dihydrotestosterone levels in prostatic tissue before and after androgen deprivation therapy. EXPERIMENTAL DES...
BACKGROUND The RET proto-oncogene encodes a protein that belongs to the tyrosine kinase growth factor receptor family. Germline point mutations in RET are found in individuals with multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) syndromes, and gene rearrangements have been reported in papillary thyroid cancers. We recently identified transcripts of the RET proto-oncogene in human prostate cancer xenografts ...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the prostate was accomplished in 23 patients who had prostatic cancer histologically proved by needle biopsy. Five prostates resected out of 23 patients with prostatic cancer were available for in vitro MRI. The MRI findings of the normal peripheral zone of the prostate had a high signal intensity on T2 weighted image, and the cancer nests in the peripheral z...
Stem cells are believed to regulate normal prostatic homeostasis and to play a role in the etiology of prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia. We show here that the proximal region of mouse prostatic ducts is enriched in a subpopulation of epithelial cells that exhibit three important attributes of epithelial stem cells: they are slow cycling, possess a high in vitro proliferative pot...
A sensitive sandwich-type enzyme immunoassay has been developed for quantitation of a human prostate-specific antigen (PA). With this method, PA at a concentration as low as 0.10 ng/ml can be detected. The assay was reproducible as within and between assays yielded a coefficient of variation of 5.7% and 4.6%, respectively. Only human prostate tissues (n = 31) were shown to contain PA. No PA was...
The daily percentage of cells proliferating and dying were determined for normal, premalignant, and cancerous prostatic cells within the prostate as well as for prostatic cancer cells in lymph node, soft tissue, and bone metastases from untreated and hormonally falling patients. These data demonstrate that normal prostatic glandular cells have an extremely low but balanced rate of cell prolifer...
BACKGROUND Benign ectopia of prostatic glandular tissue in the seminal vesicles is rare with only three prior cases reported in the literature. Prostate cancer, arising within prostatic ectopia in the seminal vesicles, has never been described and therefore presents a challenge in both diagnosis and management. CASE PRESENTATION Herein, we report a rare case of prostatic adenocarcinoma in ect...
