research Management of Advanced Prostate Cancer Undergoing Major Shift
New treatments are making advanced prostate cancer management more complex but also more hopeful.
research Detection of Circulating Prostate Cancer Cells by Means of an Antibody-Conjugated Nanoparticulate Biosensor
The document concludes that a new biosensor can efficiently detect prostate cancer cells and that standardized referrals help find significant cancers effectively.

Serum triglyceride levels are not linked to prostate cancer risk.
research Urological Oncology: Prostate Cancer
Male pattern baldness may be linked to prostate cancer risk.
research Slow Progress in Prostate Cancer
Finasteride reduces prostate cancer risk but may increase high-grade tumors; new drugs and better diagnosis are in development, but funding and industry commitment are challenges.
research How Not to Detect Prostate Cancer
Using a single PSA level to decide on a prostate biopsy is not effective; a more personalized approach considering various factors is recommended.
research TRAIL Sensitization of PC3 Prostate Cancer Cells by Doxorubicin Can Be Blocked by the Antioxidant N-Acetyl-Cysteine or by the Iron Chelator Deferoxamine
Antioxidants can block the cancer-fighting effects of doxorubicin.
research Effect of the Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Dutasteride on Markers of Tumor Regression in Prostate Cancer
Dutasteride may help treat prostate cancer by causing cancer cells to shrink and die.
research Can We Predict Prostate Size by Scoring Baldness? The Relationship of Androgenic Alopecia and Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms
research 5α-Reductase Activity in the Prostate
Blocking the enzyme 5α-reductase can shrink the prostate and help treat enlarged prostate issues.
research Incidence of Liver Toxicity Associated with the Use of Flutamide in Prostate Cancer Patients
Flutamide rarely causes liver toxicity in prostate cancer patients.
research The Rationale for Inhibiting 5α-Reductase Isoenzymes in the Prevention and Treatment of Prostate Cancer
Inhibiting 5α-reductase can help reduce prostate cancer risk and improve treatment.
research Prospective Investigation of Risk Factors for Prostate Cancer in the UK Biobank Cohort Study
Black ethnicity, prior PSA tests, enlarged prostate, and family history increase prostate cancer risk; Asian ethnicity, obesity, smoking, diabetes, and less sexual activity or no children decrease risk.
research 5α-Reductase Type 2 Gene Variant Associations with Prostate Cancer Risk, Circulating Hormone Levels, and Androgenetic Alopecia
A49T gene variant linked to higher prostate cancer risk, lower hormone levels, and slightly reduced balding risk.
research Five-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors for Prostate Cancer Prevention
5-alpha-reductase inhibitors can lower prostate cancer risk but may increase high-grade tumors and cause sexual side effects.
research Androgenetic Alopecia and Risk of Prostate Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Vertex pattern hair loss linked to higher prostate cancer risk.
research Post-Screening Follow-Up of the Finnish Prostate Cancer Screening Trial on Putative Prostate Cancer Risk Factors: Vitamin and Mineral Use, Male Pattern Baldness, Pubertal Development, and Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug Use
Late puberty may slightly lower prostate cancer risk, baldness is not linked to overall risk but less so with aggressive types, ibuprofen use may increase risk, and vitamins show no effect on risk.
research Key Targets of Hormonal Treatment of Prostate Cancer: The Androgen Receptor and 5α-Reductase
Blocking DHT production more strongly may help control advanced prostate cancer and improve quality of life.
research Clinical and Metabolic Implications of Obesity in Prostate Cancer: Is Testosterone a Missing Link?
Higher BMI and lower testosterone are linked to more aggressive prostate cancer.
research The Investigation of Minoxidil-Induced Ca2+ Rises and Non-Ca2+-Triggered Cell Death in PC3 Human Prostate Cancer Cells
Minoxidil increases calcium levels and kills prostate cancer cells independently of calcium.
research Anti-Proliferative Effect of Terpenes on Human Prostate Cancer Cells: Natural Sources and Their Potential Role as Chemopreventive Agents
Certain natural compounds called terpenes may help prevent prostate cancer.
research Long-Term Consequences of Finasteride vs Placebo in the Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial
Finasteride reduces the need for prostate surgery but may increase the risk of depression and persistent sexual side effects.
research Activated Polyamine Catabolism Depletes Acetyl-CoA Pools and Suppresses Prostate Tumor Growth in TRAMP Mice
The study explored the impact of overexpressing the enzyme spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase (SSAT) in TRAMP mice, a model for prostate cancer. By cross-breeding these mice with SSAT-overexpressing mice, researchers observed a significant reduction in tumor growth, with genitourinary tract weights being 4 to 12 times less than in TRAMP mice alone by 30 to 36 weeks of age. This tumor suppression was attributed to increased polyamine catabolism, which depleted acetyl-CoA and S-adenosylmethionine, despite increased polyamine biosynthesis. Histopathological analysis showed less advanced tumors in TRAMP/SSAT mice, suggesting that SSAT overexpression could be a promising therapeutic strategy for prostate cancer. Additionally, a genitourinary disease index was developed to assess the treatment's impact, particularly in the C57BL/6 mouse background.
research A Powerful Method for Pleiotropic Analysis Under Composite Null Hypothesis Identifies Novel Shared Loci Between Type 2 Diabetes and Prostate Cancer
New method finds genetic links between Type 2 Diabetes and Prostate Cancer not seen before.
