Diagnostic accuracy of urinary prostate protein glycosylation profiling in prostatitis diagnosis [PDF]

, 2015
Introduction: Although prostatitis is a common male urinary tract infection, clinical diagnosis of prostatitis is difficult. The developmental mechanism of prostatitis is not yet unraveled which led to the elaboration of various biomarkers. As changes in

The values of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and/or prostate-specific antigen in discriminating real Gleason score ≥ 7 prostate cancer from group of biopsy-based Gleason score ≤ 6

BMC Cancer, 2017
Background The discrepant concordance between biopsy and radical prostatectomy (RP) specimen are well reported. To validate the clinical usefulness of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in discriminating real GS ≥ 7 PCa from biopsy-based GS ≤ 6 PCa in ...

The ‘P‐usher’, a novel protein transporter involved in fimbrial assembly and TpsA secretion [PDF]

The EMBO Journal, 2008
We identified a new bacterial transporter, the Pseudomonas aeruginosa CupB3 protein, which is an outer membrane usher involved in pili assembly. In CupB3, the usher domain has fused during evolution with a POTRA (polypeptide-transport-associated)-like domain found in TpsB transporters of two-partner secretion systems.

Role of inflammatory factors in prediction of Gleason score and its upgrading in localized prostate cancer patients after radical prostatectomy

Frontiers in Oncology, 2023
PurposeTo investigate the role of inflammatory factors including systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in predicting Gleason Score (GS) and Gleason Score upgrading (GSU) in localized prostate cancer (PCa) after

Effect of seaweed on physical properties of thermoplastic sugar palm starch/agar composites

Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2016
The aim of this paper is to investigate the physical properties of thermoplastic sugar palm starch/agar (TPSA) blend when incorporated with seaweed. The ratio of starch, agar, and glycerol for TPSA was maintained at 70:30:30.
