Acid cysteine proteinase inhibitor (ACPI or cystatin A) is a protein (I 2 kDa) which inhibits the action of several cysteine proteinases, e.g. cathepsins B, H, L and S. In this study the cellular location of ACPl has been immunohistochemically investigated in the normal human prostate, in benign pro
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Pathologically, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is not considered a precursor for prostate carcinoma. However, because the two conditions share not only a similar hormonal environment within the prostate but also several common risk factors, it is possible that men wit
