Heretofore, the function of estrogen in the prostate, other than as an antiandrogen, has been unclear. In this review of a growing fund of knowledge about both estrogen and the plasma protein, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), or testosteroneestradiol binding globulin (TeBG), the hypothesis is pr

โฆ Synopsis
Lactogen causes binding of testosterone to human prostate and therapy increases steroid enhancement of acid phosphatase activity of the tissue. Diminished response to steroid of tissue treated with lactogen antibody is interpreted as evidence of inactivation of endogenous lactogen associated with the tissue. This is the first time that steroid-lactogen-phosphatase interaction has been demonstrated in vitro.

Transrectal sonography (TRS) remains the best method for prostatic planimetry, providing much information of value for the diagnosis and treatment of prostatic diseases, particularly of prostatic cancer. Currently, TRS is a routine tool in the detection and treatment of prostatic cancer. Prostatic p
## Abstract The three Akt isoforms differ in their ability to transduce oncogenic signals initiated by the __Neu__ and __PyMT__ oncogenes in mammary epithelia. As a result, ablation of Akt1 inhibits and ablation of Akt2 accelerates mammary tumor development by both oncogenes, while ablation of Akt3
