## 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
Human prostatic tissue and expressed prostatic secretions (EPS) from patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer were incubated with (1 beta 3H) androstenedione. The extent of aromatization was determined by measuring the transfer of 3H from the 1 beta position into water. T
The aim of our study was to determine whether leptin, a hormone implicated in both energy-balance and reproductive function, is involved in the etiology of prostate cancer or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). We compared the serum leptin levels of 43 cases of incident prostate cancer, 41 patients
