## Abstract Prostate cancer continues to be the most frequently diagnosed neoplasm, and the second leading cause of cancer‐related mortality in men. Oxidative stress may enhance prostatic carcinogenesis. Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) is the only known superoxide scavenger in mitochondria.

## Abstract __CCND1__ mRNA is alternatively spliced to produce 2 transcripts, and the splicing pattern may be modulated by a frequent __A__870__G__ single‐nucleotide polymorphism within the conserved splice donor site of exon 4. Several studies have suggested a significant association between the _
## Abstract It is widely recognized that androgen biosynthesis and metabolism are associated with the development and progression of prostate cancer. The human CYP11A1 gene (__CYP11A1__) encodes the P450scc enzyme, which mediates the first step in sex steroid hormone synthesis. The gene contains a
## Abstract A high fat intake has been associated with prostate cancer risk, and gene polymorphisms of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) play an important role in plasma lipoprotein metabolism. We herein analyzed the association of __LPL__ gene polymorphisms with the risk of prostate cancer in a Japanese po
