Prostatic specific antigen for prostate cancer detection.
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). This increased detection caused the incidence of advanced-stage disease to decrease at a dramatic rate, and...
متن کاملProstate specific antigen staining intensity in prostatic adenocarcinoma correlates with serum prostate specific antigen , Bandar Abbas, Iran
Introduction: Prostatic adenocarcinoma is one the most common malignances and the second cause of death in males due to cancer. Prostate Specific Antigen (PZSA) serum level is the first marker to screen such patients. We aimed in this study, to assess the intensity of prostatic adenocarcinoma tissue staining with PSA staining method. Methods: In this corss-sectional study, prostatic adenocarcin...
متن کاملSerum and urinary measurements of prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) and prostatic specific antigen (PSA) in dogs
Serum and urinary prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) and prostatic specific antigen (PSA) from 20 dogs were measured. PAP and PSA tests were carried out in authomatized equipment with commercial kits used for humans. Mean PAP serum value was 0.7U/l and urinary 0.1U/l. Mean serum and urinary PSA were 0.005ng/dl and 0.004ng/dl, respectively. In vivo determination of these two biomarkers in dogs is ...
متن کاملGrowth regulation of prostatic stromal cells by prostate-specific antigen.
BACKGROUND Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is a serine protease that can cleave insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 (IGFBP3), thereby decreasing its affinity for insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I). Dissociation of the IGF-I-IGFBP3 complex renders IGF-I available to bind to its receptor and stimulates cellular proliferation. We evaluated the potential for PSA to modulate the effects o...
متن کاملSerum prostatic specific-antigen concentrations in acute myocardial infarction.
To the Editor: We were interested to read the recent paper by Oremek and Seiffert relating to serum PSA [1] and wish to report our preliminary findings of decreased serum PSA concentrations in men after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Our study was prompted by questions regarding an apparently spurious result in a man whose serum PSA had been measured before and after an AMI. We measured cre...
