The role of PSA density in the follow up of men with a negative MRI in the Göteborg‐2 trial

BJU International, EarlyView.
Objectives To assess whether prostate‐specific antigen density (PSAD) stratifies long‐term risk of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) after a negative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI; Prostate Imaging‐Reporting and Data System score ≤2) and to evaluate the potential of PSAD to guide follow‐up in a screening setting.

Brain metastasis‐associated fibroblasts shape the tumour microenvironment to enhance cancer cell invasion

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Brain metastasis‐associated fibroblasts are active stromal components of the metastatic niche characterised by extracellular matrix remodelling and production of pro‐migratory mediators. They promote monocyte and cancer cell migration and enhance cancer cell invasion while having no growth‐promoting effect on cancer cells.
