## Abstract DJβ1 is a conserved protein reported to be involved in diverse cellular processes ranging from cellular transformation, control of proteinβRNA interaction, oxidative stress response to control of male infertility, among several others. Mutations in the human gene have been shown to be a

Abstract
In vitro ^1^H NMR spectra were acquired for perchloric acid extracts of tissue samples ofhuman prostate. Seven patients were diagnosed with prostate cancer, 13 with benign prostatic hypertrophy, and 3 with both conditions. Statistically significant differences between the cancer and benign groups were seen for the metabolite peak arearatios of citrate, creatine, and phosphorylcholine to alanine. and citrate to glutamate. There was no correlation of Gleason grade with any of the ratios measured for the cancer samples. Spectra from different sections of large tumors often yielded substantially different area ratios. confirming the heterogeneous nature of these prostate tumors.

Human prostatic carcinoma frequently metastasizes to bone tissue and activates bone metabolism, especially bone formation, at the site of metastasis. It has been reported that an extract of prostatic carcinoma and conditioned medium (CM) of a human prostatic carcinoma cell line, PC-3, established fr
In the tumor microenvironment, carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are considered to play a critical role in the promotion of tumorigenesis. However, the mechanisms that generate CAFs are not well elucidated. To understand how CAFs are generated during primary cancer progression, we investigated
