Evaluation of Prostate specific antigen levels and its correlation with histopathological findings

Journal of Pathology of Nepal, 2019
Background: Prostate specific antigen is a tumor marker though is expressed by both normal and neoplastic prostate tissue. The absolute value of Prostate specific antigen is useful for determining the extent of prostate cancer and its treatment. Prostate

Prostate Specific Antigen: A review [PDF]

Acta Oncologica, 1991
Despite its identification in the 1970s, prostate specific antigen (PSA) has only recently gained widespread utility. In this review, we will describe significant aspects of the biochemistry of PSA, immunohistochemical applications, the effect of prostatic manipulation on the serum level of this analyte, and other considerations in the determination of

Age-specific prostate specific antigen and prostate specific antigen density values in a community-based Indian population

Indian Journal of Urology, 2007
Introduction: We sought to determine the distribution of serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels in a community-based population in the state of Gujarat in India.

Decreasing trend in prostate cancer with high serum prostate-specific antigen levels detected at first prostate-specific antigen-based population screening in Japan

Asian Journal of Andrology, 2014
To clarify the recent trends in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) distribution in men in Japan, we analyzed the PSA distributions of men undergoing PSA-based population screening.

Prostate-Specific Antigen in Prostate Cancer

The International Journal of Biological Markers, 1986
Prostate-specific antigen (PA) has been evaluated clinically as a tumor marker of prostate cancer with the use of enzyme immunoassay (EIA). For serodetection of prostate cancer, PA was assayed in a total of 1,109 sera. From mean ± 3 S.D.

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

What Should Be the Prostate Specific Antigen Threshold for Prostate Biopsy?

Haseki Tıp Bülteni, 2017
Aim: There is still uncertainty today regarding the prostate specific antigen (PSA) threshold for prostate biopsy. From this point of view, we aimed to investigate the PSA threshold for prostate biopsy in this study.

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Relationship between serum prostate-specific antigen and age in cadavers

SAGE Open Medicine, 2020
Objectives: An increase in number of unidentified cadavers is a growing problem. To identify these cadavers, a simple objective method is required to estimate cadaveric age.
