5'-nucleotidase activity in prostatic carcinoma and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
In light of previous reports of alterations in 5'-nucleotidase activity in neoplastic conditions, 5'-nucleotidase activity was examined histochemically in tissue sections and quantified biochemically in extracts of human hyperplastic prostates and prostatic carcinomas obtained surgically. The 5'-nucleotidase activities per mg protein in extracts of 29 prostatic carcinomas were lower (P less tha...
متن کاملArginase activity in prostatic tissue of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostatic carcinoma.
We studied arginase activity in human prostatic tissue in 15 patients with benign hyperplasia and 27 patients with prostatic carcinoma. Arginase specific activity is greater (p less than 0.0001) in prostatic carcinomas than in hyperplastic prostates. Arginase specific activity is correlated inversely (p less than 0.0001) with the histological grade of the tumor.
متن کاملProstatic hexosaminidase activity in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostatic carcinoma.
Hexosaminidase activity in prostatic tissue has been compared in 15 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and 15 patients with prostatic carcinoma. The ratio of enzymatic activity for the two substrates tested (p-nitrophenyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranoside and p-nitrophenyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-beta-D-galactopyranoside) was not significantly different in the two groups of patient...
متن کاملComparison of Matrix Metalloproteinases 2 mRNA Expression in Prostatic Adenocarcinoma and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Background and Aims: Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men worldwide in men. Matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) has a role in the invasion and destruction of the basement membrane and the extra-cellular matrix and facilitating the process of tumor cell invasion. The present study was conducted to compare the expression of MMP2 gene in prostate cancer (PCa) and benign prostatic ...
متن کاملPhysical activity and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
BACKGROUND Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) leading to prostatic enlargement and lower urinary tract symptoms is highly prevalent among older men. Sympathetic nervous system activity, which is decreased by physical activity, is associated with increased prostatic smooth-muscle tone and prostatic symptoms. Therefore, we assessed whether physical activity leads to fewer lower urinary tract symp...
