Periprostatic Adipose Tissue Mapping as a Diagnostic Predictor of Prostate Carcinoma
Periprostatic adipose tissue is a new topic being investigated to determine its utility in detecting and scoring prostate cancer. In the past, most of the studies related to prostate cancer relied on body mass index (BMI) to measure adiposity but showed conflicting results.

Use of parallel fluorescent confocal microscopy for detection of prostatic adenocarcinoma
Objective To provide a histological catalogue and defined criteria for the diagnosis of prostatic adenocarcinoma and its variants using the fluorescent confocal microscope (FCM) platform. Methods A total of 22 radical prostatectomy specimens were serially sectioned and scanned with the FCM.

CRTC2 as a novel prognostic biomarker for worse pathologic outcomes and biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy in patients with prostate cancer [PDF]
Purpose: To identify the association between tumor metabolism and prostate cancer (PCa), we investigated the relationship between expression of metabolism-related genes and clinicopathologic outcomes in patients with localized PCa. Materials and Methods:

Differentiated Pre-Adipocytes Act as a Driving Force For Prostate Cancer Proliferation, Migration and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition [PDF]
Obesity is a popular topic due to both its mortality and morbidity rates and related diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and cancer. Cancer development and progression relate to many factors one of which is dysfunctional adipocytes found

Cancer cells drive adjacent adipose tissue to release fatty acids by secreting CCL2, which activates PPARα‐dependent lipolysis. The resulting fatty acid influx amplifies HIF‐1α/CCL2 signaling, establishing a positive feedback loop that fuels tumor growth.

Periprostatic adipose tissue interacts with prostate cancer to promote aggressive disease
Prostate cancer is now the most commonly diagnosed cancer among men in the developed world and is responsible for a significant number of cancer deaths each year (1). It has become increasingly clear that the epithelial component of the tumour itself is not the only aspect of the disease that determines clinical outcomes.

IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL EXPRESSION OF NGF/TrkA AND BDNF/TrkB IN TUMOR PARIENCHYMA AND PERIPROSTATIC ADIPOSE TISSUE, DEPENDING ON THE PATHOANATOMIC STAGE OF PROSTATE CANCER [PDF]
Introduction: For more than 30 years, the idea of inhibiting growth factors has taken over the minds of different generations of scientists since the progression of the neoplastic process is determined by uncontrolled proliferation differentiation and ...

Pathology of a Canine Model of Localized Prostate Carcinoma
ABSTRACT Background Dogs spontaneously develop prostate carcinoma (PC) and share prostate gland anatomy, physiology, and size to men. Over the last 15 years, we have developed and refined a canine model of focal PC to evaluate therapeutic‐diagnostic (theranostic) interventions.

Bigger challenges, similar outcomes: Robotic prostatectomy in the obese patient
Abstract Objectives The study aims to review the safety of performing robotic‐assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) in patients with a body mass index (BMI) > 35 kg/m2 in a high‐volume robotic centre. Materials and methods A prospective database of all patients who underwent RARP between December 2015 and October 2024 was reviewed.
