The prognosis of prostate cancer correlates with tumor differentiation. Gleason score and DNA ploidy are two prognostic factors that correlate with prognosis. We analyzed differences in protein expression in prostate cancer of high and low aggressiveness according to these measures. From 35 prostatectomy specimens, 29 cancer samples and 10 benign samples were harvested by scraping cells from cut surfaces. DNA ploidy was assessed by image cytometry. Protein preparations from cell suspensions were examined by 2-DE. Protein spots that differed quantitatively between sample groups were identified by MS fingerprinting of tryptic fragments and MS/MS sequence analysis. We found 39 protein spots with expression levels that were raised or lowered in correlation with Gleason score and/or DNA ploidy pattern (31 overexpressed in high-malignant cancer, 8 underexpressed). Of these, 30 were identified by MS. Among overexpressed proteins were heat-shock, structural and membrane proteins and enzymes involved in gene silencing, protein synthesis/degradation, mitochondrial protein import (metaxin 2), detoxification (GST-pi) and energy metabolism. Stroma-associated proteins were generally underexpressed. The protein expression of prostate cancer correlates with tumor differentiation. Potential prognostic markers may be found among proteins that are differentially expressed and the clinical value of these should be validated. 相似文献

Prostate cancer (PCa) has a variable biological potential. It constitutes the second most common cancer amongst men worldwide and the fifth most common cancer in Saudi Arabia. Identifying men at higher risk of developing PCa, differentiating indolent from aggressive disease and predicting the likelihood of progression will improve decision-making and selection for active surveillance protocols. Biomarkers have been utilized for PCa screening and predicting cancer behavior and response to treatment. The prostate specific antigen (PSA) screening helps detect PCa in early stages, while implementing a plan for management and outcome. However, PSA screening is still controversial, due to the risks of over diagnosis and treatment, and its inability to detect a good proportion of advanced tumors. Alternatively, a new era of PCa biomarkers has emerged with higher PCa specificity than PSA and its isoforms hopefully improving screening methods, such as Prostate Health Index (PHI) score, Progensa Prostate Cancer Antigen 3 (PCA3), Mi-Prostate Score (MiPS), Prostate Stem Cell Antigen (PSCA), 4Kscore test, and Urokinase Plasminogen Activation (uPA and uPAR). Few novel biomarkers have shown promise in preliminary results. This review will display promising biomarkers including some important FDA approved ones, highlighting their clinical implication and future place in the PCa puzzle, along with addressing their current limitations. 相似文献

DNA methylation, a widely used epigenetic mark, has been associated with many tumors. However, few studies have addressed the role of cell-free plasma DNA methylation in discriminating aggressive prostate cancer (PCa) from indolent cases. We conducted a case series and a case-control study among histologically confirmed stage II/III cases and matched controls recruited at Columbia University Medical Center. The aim of this study was to investigate whether plasma DNA methylation levels are appropriate surrogate biomarker of PCa tumor tissue levels and whether these markers are associated with worse clinicopathological tumor characteristics, which correlate with poorer prognosis. Quantitative pyrosequencing was used to detect methylation levels of p16 (CDKN4A), APC, GSTP1, and LINE-1 in 24 pairs of prostate tumor and adjacent tissues, as well as 27 plasma samples of PCa patients and 24 of controls. DNA methylation levels were significantly higher in tumor tissue than in adjacent nontumor tissue for p16 (CDKN4A), GSTP1, and APC; GSTP1 had a higher average percentage methylation in tumor tissue (38.9%) compared with p16 (CDKN4A) (5.9%) and APC (14.5%). GSTP1, p16 (CDKN4A), and APC methylation in tumor tissue was statistically significantly higher for cases with Gleason score ≥7 compared with those with Gleason score <7 [49.0% vs. 21.9% (p=0.01), 6.6% vs. 4.5% (p=0.04), and 19.1% vs. 7.4% (p=0.02), respectively]. Plasma LINE-1 methylation levels were higher in those with higher Gleason (67.6%) than in those with Gleason's below 7 (64.6%, p=0.03). Significant plasma-tissue correlations were observed for GSTP1 and LINE-1 methylation. These data, although preliminary, suggest that aberrant methylation may be a useful marker to identify PCa patients with clinically aggressive disease. 相似文献

During the progression of prostate cancer from androgen-dependence or sensitivity to androgen-independence, the overall expression of prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) increases with its appearance in plasma membrane. However, surprisingly some androgen-independent metastatic prostate cancer cell lines do not express this protein. Estradiol (E2) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) due to their recognized and strong involvement in prostate growth, development, and pathology were selected with the aim of restoring the expression of PSMA in markedly dedifferentiated prostate cancer PC-3 cells and in Du 145. E2 (10(-7)-10(-11)M) and bFGF (10ng/ml) stimulated the expression of mRNAs for PSMA (2- to 4-fold increase) that apparently were further translated and processed to its membrane form in LNCaP, PC-3, and Du 145 cells. The values of interaction force between the same anti-PSMA antibodies and all studied cells were almost identical (45-64pN), indicating antigenic similarity of the membrane form of PSMA expressed in LNCaP, PC-3, and Du 145 cells. 相似文献

Galectins (gal), a family of soluble beta-galactoside-binding proteins present at the cell surface, are involved in cancer progression and metastasis. Here we investigated the expression of several galectins in normal (PrEC), benign (BPH-1), and malignant (LNCaP) prostate epithelial cells and found that all galectins, except gal1 are differentially expressed. The gal3, 7, and 9 are highly expressed in PrEC, but not in LNCaP cells. Out of seven isoforms of gal8, the proto isoform gal8e and our newly discovered proto isoform gal8g were upregulated in LNCaP cells compared to PrEC, whereas the two tandem-repeat isoforms gal8a and gal8b were equally expressed in these cells. To determine if the silencing of gal3 in LNCaP cells was due to promoter methylation, LNCaP cells were treated with azacytidine. Azacytidine treatment induced the expression of gal3 in LNCaP cells, indicating that the gal3 gene was silenced by methylation of its promoter. To examine further, we evaluated cytosine methylation in gal3 promoter in LNCaP, normal prostate and placenta DNA and observed that it is highly methylated in LNCaP but not in normal cells and azacytidine completely abolished this methylation in LNCaP cells. Similar to prostate cancer cells, gal3 promoter was highly methylated in human prostate cancer tissue but not in normal tissue. To our knowledge, this is the first report indicating that gal3 expression is regulated by promoter methylation in LNCaP cells and prostate tumors. The methylation of gal3 promoter may constitute a powerful tool for early diagnosis of prostate cancer. 相似文献

Prostate cancer is highly heterogeneous in nature; while the majority of cases are clinically insignificant, some cases are lethal. Currently, there are no reliable screening methods for aggressive prostate cancer. Since most established serum and urine biomarkers are glycoproteins secreted or leaked from the diseased tissue, the current study seeks to identify glycoprotein markers specific to aggressive prostate cancer using tissue specimens. With LC‐MS/MS glycoproteomic analysis, we identified 350 glycopeptides with 17 being altered in aggressive prostate cancer. ELISA assays were developed/purchased to evaluate four candidates, that is, cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), periostin, membrane primary amine oxidase (VAP‐1), and cathepsin L, in independent tissue sets. In agreement with the proteomic analysis, we found that COMP and periostin expressions were significantly increased in aggressive prostate tumors while VAP‐1 expression was significantly decreased in aggressive tumor. In addition, the expression of these proteins in prostate metastases also follows the same pattern observed in the proteomic analysis. This study provides a workflow for biomarker discovery, prioritization, and evaluation of aggressive prostate cancer markers using tissue specimens. Our data suggest that increase in COMP and periostin and decrease in VAP‐1 expression in the prostate may be associated with aggressive prostate cancer. 相似文献

Early stage prostate cancers are now commonly encountered because of widespread use of screening tools. Increased cancer cell
proliferation, and expression of sialyl Lewis could be important as predictors of clinical behaviour and survival in addition
to histologic grade. In this study, the expression of sialyl-Lewisx (sLex) was determined by immunohistochemical methods in
38 routinely processed prostate biopsies and transurethral resections preceeding radical prostatectomies for organ confined
prostate cancers. Histologic grades were determined from pathologic reports and divided into two (2) groups; low grade (Gleason
score 2–4) and medium grade (Gleason score 5–7). Tumour stages were based on radical prostatectomy reports and 29 were T2
and 9 were T3. SLex was positive in 10 of 14 (71.4%) low grade and 14 of 24 (62.5%) medium grade cancers; 22/29 (75.9%) T2
and 8/9 (88.9%) T3 were sLex positive; 1 of 15 (7.2%) low grade and 5 of 24 (20.8%) medium grade were strongly positive (3+)
or overexpressing sLex. Overexpression of sLex was a feature of medium grade cancer, suggesting that localized prostate cancers
with increased potential for progression and metastasis exist in the clinically non-metastatic group.

Prostate cancer cells express prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA). We developed an IgM type monoclonal antibody against PSMA. The antibody was coupled to poly-L-lysine and thereafter this conjugate was mixed with cationic liposomes containing plasmid DNA. The antibody-liposome complex was tested whether it could deliver the gene of interest selectively to the PSMA positive cells. As assessed by beta-galactosidase reporter gene, the transfection efficiency was 13.2% with anti-PSMA-liposome complex as compared to 4% with control IgM liposome complex. In contrast, no such differences were observed in PSMA negative PC-3, DU145 and T24 cells. Furthermore, in the suicide gene therapy in vitro with thymidine kinase gene plus ganciclovir system, anti-PSMA liposome complex demonstrated a selective growth inhibitory effect on PSMA positive LNCaP cells but not on PSMA negative cell lines. 相似文献

Gene expression patterns define pathways correlated with loss of differentiation in lung adenocarcinomas 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
An analysis of microarray data from 86 lung adenocarcinomas reveals hundreds of genes significantly correlated with tumor cell differentiation. A bioinformatics approach of linking these genes to public information from the Locuslink and KEGG databases yields evidence for a loss of tumor cell differentiation being associated with biological processes of cell division, protein degradation, pyrimidine and purine metabolism, oxidative phosphorylation, glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism, folate biosynthesis, and glutamate metabolism. The increased expression of genes involved in these processes is consistent with increased proliferation and metabolism characteristics of poorly differentiated tumors. The complete results of this analysis are available at http://dot.ped.med.umich.edu:2000/pub/diff/index.htm. 相似文献

A p53 codon 72 polymorphism associated with prostate cancer development and progression in Japanese 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

An association between the Pro/Pro genotype of p53 codon 72 and a lower risk of prostate cancer in Caucasians was recently reported. However, the association of this polymorphism with prostate cancer risk in a Japanese population has not been clarified. We performed a case-control study consisting of 114 prostate cancer patients and 105 noncancer controls. Sixty-nine percent (79 of 114) of the patients had a positive family history. The genotypic frequencies in the controls were 39.0% for Arg/Arg, 54.3% for Arg/Pro and 6.7% for Pro/Pro; they were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. When a comparison of the distribution of the p53 codon 72 polymorphism was made between patients with a first-degree family history and all control subjects, the adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for prostate cancer associated with the Arg/Arg, Arg/Pro and Pro/Pro genotypes were 1.00, 0.99 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.53-1.88] and 2.80 (95% CI 1.04-7.53), respectively. When stratification of cases was performed based on clinical stage (localized or metastatic cancer) and pathological grade (a Gleason score of <7 or > or =7), there tended to be a greater number of patients with localized cancers among those patients with the Arg/Pro genotype than among those with the Arg/Arg genotype (overall cases: age-adjusted OR 0.36, 95% CI 0.13-1.00, p = 0.049; positive family history cases: age-adjusted OR 0.25, 95% CI 0.075-0.84, p = 0.025). In addition, there tended to be a greater number of patients with low-grade cancers among those with the Pro/Pro genotype than among those with other genotypes (overall cases: age-adjusted OR 0.41, 95% CI 0.13-1.30, p = 0.13; positive family history cases: age-adjusted OR 0.20, 95% CI 0.004-0.89, p = 0.035). The present findings suggest that the Pro/Pro genotype of p53 codon 72 played a role in prostate cancer susceptibility in a Japanese population. However, the Pro allele did not appear to worsen such clinical parameters as clinical stage or pathological grade. 相似文献

Background
In invertebrates, genes belonging to dynamically regulated functional categories appear to be less methylated than “housekeeping” genes, suggesting that DNA methylation may modulate gene expression plasticity. To date, however, experimental evidence to support this hypothesis across different natural habitats has been lacking.Results
Gene expression profiles were generated from 30 pairs of genetically identical fragments of coral Acropora millepora reciprocally transplanted between distinct natural habitats for 3 months. Gene expression was analyzed in the context of normalized CpG content, a well-established signature of historical germline DNA methylation. Genes with weak methylation signatures were more likely to demonstrate differential expression based on both transplant environment and population of origin than genes with strong methylation signatures. Moreover, the magnitude of expression differences due to environment and population were greater for genes with weak methylation signatures.Conclusions
Our results support a connection between differential germline methylation and gene expression flexibility across environments and populations. Studies of phylogenetically basal invertebrates such as corals will further elucidate the fundamental functional aspects of gene body methylation in Metazoa.Electronic supplementary material

BackgroundPopulation trends in PSA testing and prostate cancer incidence do not perfectly correspond. We aimed to better understand relationships between trends in PSA testing, prostate cancer incidence and mortality in Australia and factors that influence them.MethodsWe calculated and described standardised time trends in PSA tests, prostate biopsies, treatment of benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) and prostate cancer incidence and mortality in Australia in men aged 45–74, 75–84, and 85 + years.ResultsPSA testing increased from its introduction in 1989 to a peak in 2008 before declining in men aged 45–84 years. Prostate biopsies and cancer incidence fell from 1995 to 2000 in parallel with decrease in trans-urethral resections of the prostate (TURP) and, latterly, changes in pharmaceutical management of BPH. After 2000, changes in biopsies and incidence paralleled changes in PSA screening in men 45–84 years, while in men ≥85 years biopsy rates stabilised, and incidence fell. Prostate cancer mortality in men aged 45–74 years remained low throughout. Mortality in men 75–84 years gradually increased until mid 1990s, then gradually decreased. Mortality in men ≥ 85 years increased until mid 1990s, then stabilised.ConclusionAge specific prostate cancer incidence largely mirrors PSA testing rates. Most deviation from this pattern may be explained by less use of TURP in management of BPH and consequent less incidental cancer detection in TURP tissue specimens. Mortality from prostate cancer initially rose and then fell below what it was when PSA testing began. Its initial rise and fall may be explained by a possible initial tendency to over-attribute deaths of uncertain cause in older men with a diagnosis of prostate cancer to prostate cancer. Decreases in mortality rates were many fold smaller than the increases in incidence, suggesting substantial overdiagnosis of prostate cancer after introduction of PSA testing. 相似文献

Aim
This study evaluates the acute toxicity outcome in patients treated with RapidArc for localized prostate cancer.Background
Modern technologies allow the delivery of high doses to the prostate while lowering the dose to the neighbouring organs at risk. Whether this dosimetric advantage translates into clinical benefit is not well known.Materials and methods
Between December 2009 and May 2012, 45 patients with primary prostate adenocarcinoma were treated using RapidArc. All patients received 1.8 Gy per fraction, the median dose to the prostate gland, seminal vesicles, pelvic lymph nodes and surgical bed was 80 Gy (range, 77.4–81 Gy), 50.4 Gy, 50.4 Gy and 77.4 Gy (range, 75.6–79.2 Gy), respectively.Results
The time between the last session and the last treatment follow up was a median of 10 months (range, 3–24 months). The incidence of grade 3 acute gastrointestinal (GI) and genitourinary (GU) toxicity was 2.2% and 15.5%, respectively. Grade 2 acute GI and GU toxicity occurred in 30% and 27% of patients, respectively. No grade 4 acute GI and GU toxicity were observed. Older patients (>median) or patients with V60 higher than 35% had significantly higher rates of grade ≥2 acute GI toxicity compared with the younger ones.Conclusions
RapidArc in the treatment of localized prostate cancer is tolerated well with no Grade >3 GI and GU toxicities. Older patients or patients with higher V60 had significantly higher rates of grade ≥2 acute GI toxicity. Further research is necessary to assess definitive late toxicity and tumour control outcome. 相似文献18.

ObjectivesTo examine the incidence of metastases and clinical course of prostate cancer patients who are without confirmed metastasis when initiating androgen deprivation therapy (ADT).MethodsRetrospective cohort study conducted using electronic medical records from Swedish outpatient urology clinics linked to national mandatory registries to capture medical and demographic data. Prostate cancer patients initiating ADT between 2000 and 2010 were followed from initiation of ADT to metastasis, death, and/or end of follow-up.ResultsThe 5-year cumulative incidence (CI) of metastasis was 18%. Survival was 60% after 5 years; results were similar for bone metastasis-free survival. The 5-year CI of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) was 50% and the median survival from CRPC development was 2.7 years. Serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels and PSA doubling time were strong predictors of bone metastasis, any metastasis, and death.ConclusionThis study provides understanding of the clinical course of prostate cancer patients without confirmed metastasis treated with ADT in Sweden. Greater PSA values and shorter PSA doubling time (particularly ≤ 6 months) were associated with increased risk of bone metastasis, any metastasis, and death. 相似文献

Roburic acid (ROB) is a naturally occurred tetracyclic triterpenoid, and the anticancer activity of this compound has not been reported. Docetaxel (DOC) is the first-line chemotherapeutic agent for advanced stage prostate cancer but toxic side effects and drug resistance limit its clinical success. In this study, the potential synergistic anticancer effect and the underlying mechanisms of ROB in combination with DOC on prostate cancer were investigated. The results showed that ROB and DOC in combination synergistically inhibited the growth of prostate cancer cells. The combination also strongly induced apoptosis, and suppressed cell migration, invasion and sphere formation. Mechanistic study showed that the combined effects of ROB and DOC on prostate cancer cells were associated with inhibition of NF-κB activation, down regulation of Bcl-2 and up regulation of Bax. Knockdown of NF-κB by small interfering RNA (siRNA) significantly decreased the combined effect of ROB and DOC. Moreover, we found that esomeprazole (ESOM), a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), strongly enhanced the effectiveness of ROB and DOC on prostate cancer cells in acidic culture medium. Since acidic micro environment is known to impair the efficacy of current anticancer therapies, ESOM combined with ROB and DOC may be an effective approach for improving the treatment of prostate cancer patients. 相似文献
