Beyond the Number: Interpreting Prostate-Specific Antigen Elevation in the Context of Prostate Inflammation [PDF]

Urogenital Tract Infection
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is indispensable but not cancer specific; inflammation, benign prostatic hyperplasia, urinary retention, ejaculation, and instrumentation can all elevate PSA and complicate cancer risk assessment.

Prostatic specific antigen for prostate cancer detection [PDF]

International braz j urol, 2009
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) has been used for prostate cancer detection since 1994. PSA testing has revolutionized our ability to diagnose, treat, and follow-up patients. In the last two decades, PSA screening has led to a substantial increase in the incidence of prostate cancer (PC).

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 ...

An investigation into minichromosomal maintenance proteins (MCMs) for the diagnosis of prostate cancer, as a possible alternative to prostate specific antigen (PSA) [PDF]

, 2005
The current strategy for the diagnosis of prostate cancer includes serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) measurement. There is however debate into its specificity and sensitivity, so new diagnostic markers are under investigation.
