The Study of Serum Prostate Specific Antigen and Phosphatase Isoenzymes Activity as Diagnostic Parameters in Patients with Prostate Cancer in Nigeria [PDF]

, 2004
Serum activities of Acid Phosphatase (ACP) and Prostatic Acid Phosphatase (PAP) are still employed in most hospitals in Nigeria for the diagnosis of prostate cancer, because of lack of resources for prostate specific antigen (PSA) assay.

Interplay between RNA‐protein interactions and RNA structures in gene regulation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Methodological advances in mapping transcriptome‐wide RNA‐protein interactions and RNA structures have started to uncover the potential of RNP conformations in gene regulation. Competing RNA–RNA, RNA‐protein and protein–protein interactions shape the compaction and function of RNPs throughout their lifetime and may provide novel therapeutic targets in ...

Overview of molecular signatures of senescence and associated resources: pros and cons

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cells can enter a stress response state termed cellular senescence that is involved in various diseases and aging. Detecting these cells is challenging due to the lack of universal biomarkers. This review presents the current state of senescence identification, from biomarkers to molecular signatures, compares tools and approaches, and highlights ...

Evaluating different methods for kidney recellularization

Scientific Reports
This study explores a potential solution to the shortage of kidneys for transplantation in end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Currently, kidney transplantation stands as the optimal option, yet the scarcity of organs persists.

Prevention of thromboembolic events after radical prostatectomy in patients with hereditary thrombophilia due to a factor V Leiden mutation by multidisciplinary coagulation management

Asian Journal of Urology
Objective: To examine the perioperative impact of factor V Leiden mutation on thromboembolic events' risk in radical prostatectomy (RP) patients. With an incidence of about 5%, factor V Leiden mutation is the most common hereditary hypercoagulability ...

Accuracy of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging to detect significant prostate cancer and index lesion location [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) of the prostate appears to improve prostate cancer detection, but studies comparing mpMRI to histopathology at the time of radical prostatectomy (RP) are lacking.

ATG4B is required for mTORC1‐mediated anabolic activity and is associated with clinical outcomes in non‐small cell lung cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The relationship between anabolic and catabolic processes governing lung cancer cell growth is nuanced. We show that ATG4B, an autophagy regulator, is elevated in lung cancer and that high ATG4B is associated with worse patient outcomes. Targeting ATG4B in cells reduces growth, protein synthesis, and mTORC1 activity, demonstrating a new relationship ...

Prostate Surgery

Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1990
Benign prostatic hyperplasia is probably the most common neoplasm in man, and carcinoma of the prostate now leads the list of newly diagnosed malignancies in males. Even though there is no known direct etiologic relationship between these disorders, they are by no means mutually exclusive; if a man lives long enough, he is likely to be afflicted by one
