چکیده
The treatment of prostatic carcinoma, the second commonest carcinoma in the Western world, remains controversial although opinion has leaned towards oestrogens rather than orchiectomy unless the patient suffers a thrombo-embolic tendency.9-10 We report here a retrospective study of two statistically comparable groups of patients: one treated with oestrogens (Stilboestro!) the other by orchiectomy.

متن کاملThe role of Rad51 protein in radioresistance of spheroid model of DU145 prostate carcinoma cell line
Background: Rad51 is a protein with critical role in double strand break repair. Down-regulation of this protein has a significant effect in radiosensitivity of some cell lines like prostate carcinoma. Compared to monolayer cell culture model, the spheroids are more resistant to radiation. The aim of the current study was to determine the Rad51 protein level in DU145 spheroids, and monol...
