Examining the Efficacy of Screening with Prostate-Specific Antigen Testing in Reducing Prostate Cancer Mortality [PDF]
Prostate cancer is a prevalent, worldwide problem among male adults. This literature review, “Examining the Efficacy of Screening with Prostate-Specific Antigen Testing in Reducing Prostate Cancer Mortality,” focuses on a safe and effective screening ...

Baseline Prostate-Specific Antigen Levels in Midlife Predict Lethal Prostate Cancer.
PURPOSE Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level in midlife predicted future prostate cancer (PCa) mortality in an unscreened Swedish population. Our purpose was to determine if a baseline PSA level during midlife predicts lethal PCa in a US population with

Elevated level of cholesterol is positively correlated to prostate cancer development and disease severity. Cholesterol‐lowering drugs, such as statins, are demonstrated to inhibit prostate cancer. VNPP433‐3β interrupts multiple signaling and metabolic pathways, including cholesterol biosynthesis, AR‐mediated transcription of several oncogenes, mRNA 5′

Developing a consensus statement for psychosocial support in active surveillance for prostate cancer
Abstract Purpose Our objective was to prioritise the psychosocial support needs of men on active surveillance for prostate cancer and to develop a consensus statement to provide guidance on best practice psychosocial support for men choosing active surveillance and their families.

Discrimination of Membrane Antigen Affinity by B cells Requires Dominance of Kinetic Proofreading over Serial Triggering [PDF]
B cells receptor (BCR) signaling in response to membrane-bound antigen increases with antigen affinity, a process known as affinity discrimination. We use computational modeling to show that B cell affinity discrimination requires that kinetic proofreading predominate over serial engagement.

Understanding and measuring mechanical signals in the tumor stroma
This review discusses cancer‐associated fibroblast subtypes and their functions, particularly in relation to extracellular matrix production, as well as the development of 3D models to study tumor stroma mechanics in vitro. Several quantitative techniques to measure tissue mechanical properties are also described, to emphasize the diagnostic and ...

Review article: Prostate cancer screening using prostate specific antigen: Controversies and recommendations [PDF]
Background: Prostate cancer is the commonest cancer among men in Nigeria and early detection is key to cure and survival but its screening through prostate specific antigen (PSA) has remain controversial in literature.

Since prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is up-regulated in nearly all stages of prostate cancer (PCa), PSMA can be considered as a viable diagnostic biomarker and treatment target in PCa.
