Predicting prostate biopsy outcome: Prostate health index (phi) and prostate cancer antigen 3 (PCA3) are useful biomarkers [PDF]
Indication for prostate biopsy is presently mainly based on prostate-specific antigen (PSA) serum levels and digital-rectal examination (DRE). In view of the unsatisfactory accuracy of these two diagnostic exams, research has focused on novel markers to ...

The use of immunohistochemistry for diagnosis of prostate cancer [PDF]
PURPOSE: Atypical glands (ASAP) are diagnosed in 5.0% of prostate biopsies, and cancer identification in a rebiopsy is higher than 40.0%. The use of antibodies to mark basal cells is currently a common practice, in order to avoid rebiopsies.

Prostate biopsies containing prostate intraepithelial neoplasia and atypical small acinar proliferation: what to do? [PDF]
Objective: The aim of the study was to assess the frequency of high-grade prostate intraepithelial neoplasia and atypical small acinar proliferations on a contemporary series, and their relation to posterior diagnosis of prostate cancer.

Heat shock protein 90 is associated with hyperplasia and neoplastic transformation of canine prostatic epithelial cells [PDF]
Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) is a molecular chaperone that regulates critical signalling proteins of cancer development and progression. Abnormal levels of HSP90 have been observed in human prostatic carcinoma (PC), with prognostic and therapeutic ...

KI-67 IMMUNOHISTOHEMICAL EXPRESSION IN PROSTATIC LESIONS
Background: The cell proliferation marker, ki-67, is a nuclear and nucleolar protein, which can be detected during all active phases of the cell cycle (G1, S, G2, and mitosis), but absent from cell resting phases.

Basal cell markers:34BE12 and p63, improving detection of basal cells in atypical prostatic lesions
Background: The diagnosis of prostatic pathology may be of challenging , as some difficult and suspected, atypical cases may lack basal cell layer by routine H&E sections . Antibodies against 34BE12(HMW-CK) and p63 aid the diagnosis of such cases ,

A trial of risk‐adapted prostate cancer screening in a federally supported health center network serving a high‐risk population [PDF]
Abstract Background Although Black men experience earlier onset and higher mortality from prostate cancer (PCa), no studies to date have tested interventions that encourage adoption of risk‐adapted prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) screening. The authors conducted a 15‐month trial in clinics serving Chicago communities with high PCa mortality and Black ...
