## 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

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
