β¦ Synopsis
In benign hyperplasia marked beta-glucuronidase and N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase activity was seen in the prostatic epithelium whereas the reactions for 5 other glycosidases were only slight or negative. The intensity of the reaction for the glycosidases in prostatic carcinoma was dependent upon the degree of the differentiation. The possible importance of glycosidases for the invasiveness of prostatic carcinoma is briefly discussed.

## Abstract Prostateβspecific antigen (PSA), as measured in peripheral blood, is currently the most widely used marker for the assessment of tumor burden in the longitudinal study of patients with carcinoma of the prostate (PCA). Studies from other laboratories have led to the conclusion that a giv
We have systematically evaluated the effect of trislphosphate buffers, ethylenediamine tetraacetate (EDTA), dithiothreitol (DTT), molybdate, and phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) on the binding of 170estradiol to human BPH cytosol. Competition binding assays demonstrated that the estrogen recepto
