Decalcified bone marrow biopsies containing metastatic tumor from 36 patients were stained for prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) using the avidin biotin compIex (ABC) immunoperoxidase technique. Of these patients, 22 had known prostate primaries, ten had known nonp

## Background: The objective of this study was to correlate the failure pattern of localized prostate carcinoma after radiotherapy (rt) with pretreatment (pretx) psa and post-rt nadir psa, using systematic biopsies and serum psa in the assessment of outcome. ## Methods: From january 1990 to febru
## BACKGROUND. Two new prostate cancer markers, free-prostate specific antigen (f-PSA) and prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) were recently introduced. This report summarizes a prospective two-year multicenter test of their diagnostic or prognostic capabilities. Total PSA was also measured.
## Abstract Androgens regulate the expression of both human prostatic acid phosphatase (PAcP) and prostateβspecific antigen (PSA), two major prostate epitheliumβspecific differentiation antigens. Due to the important role of these two enzymes as prostate epithelium differentiation markers, we inves
Background. Prostate specific antigen (PSA) does not appear to have the specificity to distinguish between benign prostate hyperplasia and cancer when the PSA is low. PSA density is thought by many to improve the specificity for cancer; however, this theory remains controversial. Methods. The autho
