[Title] Salvage brachytherapy for local recurrences of prostate cancer treated previously with radiotherapy.

PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to analyze early effects and toxicity of salvage high dose rate brachytherapy for local recurrences of adenocarcinoma of the prostate after external beam radiotherapy (EBRT).

MATERIAL AND METHODS: In MCS Memorial Institute of Oncology in Gliwice a research programme on salvage HDR brachytherapy for local recurrences of prostate cancer treated previously with EBRT has been ongoing since February 2008.

CONCLUSIONS: Salvage brachytherapy for localized prostate cancer (3 × 10 Gy every 14 days) seems to be a safe and well tolerated procedure.

A significant decline in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level is seen in patients with hormone-responsive cancer.

[Title] Suppression of prostate cancer growth by resveratrol in the transgenic rat for adenocarcinoma of prostate (TRAP) model.

Since it was recently proposed as a potential prostate cancer chemopreventive agent, we here performed an in vivo experiment to explore its effect in the Transgenic Rat for Adenocarcinoma of Prostate (TRAP) model, featuring the rat probasin promoter/SV 40 T antigen.

Resveratrol suppressed prostate cancer growth and induction of apoptosis through androgen receptor (AR) down-regulation, without any sign of toxicity.

Resveratrol not only downregulated androgen receptor (AR) expression but also suppressed the androgen responsive glandular kallikrein 11 (Gk11), known to be an ortholog of the human prostate specific antigen (PSA), at the mRNA level.

The data provide a mechanistic basis for resveratrol chemopreventive efficacy against prostate cancer.

[Title] Effect of spinal cord injury upon prostate: adenocarcinoma of prostate in a spinal cord injury patient - a case report.

INTRODUCTION: Following spinal cord injury, prostate undergoes atrophy probably due to interruption of neuro-hormonal pathways.

The incidence of carcinoma of prostate is lower in patients with spinal cord injury above T-10 than in those with lesion below T-10.

In May 1995, routine blood test showed prostate-specific antigen to be 17.7 mg/ml.

Prostate biopsy revealed moderately differentiated primary adenocarcinoma of prostate; Gleason score was 3+3.

MRI of pelvis revealed no evidence of spread beyond prostatic capsule.

CONCLUSION: Although prostate gland undergoes atrophy in men who sustained spinal cord injury in early age, physicians should be vigilant and look for prostatic diseases particularly in men, who have sustained spinal cord injury during later period of life.

Therefore, it may be advisable to consider chemoprevention of prostate cancer with Finasteride, especially in men, who sustained cervical and upper dorsal spinal cord injury during later part of their life.

[Title] Metastatic adenocarcinoma of prostate in a healing sternotomy site.

Metastatic prostate cancer has a strong predilection for osseous sites, where the disease spreads in 80% of advanced cases.

The molecular mechanisms involved in prostate cancer establishment in bone are largely unknown; however, local tissue factors, including those involved in wound healing, have been suggested to play a critical role.

We present a case of tumor explosion in a median sternotomy wound after local prostate cancer therapy.

This case highlights that novel therapeutic interventions that disrupt the apparent synergistic relationship between tumor cells and the pro-tumorigenic microenvironment may hold great promise in constraining the proliferation of prostate cancer metastases.

[Title] Primary mucin-producing urothelial-type adenocarcinoma of prostate: report of 15 cases.

Prostatic urothelial-type adenocarcinoma arises through a process of glandular metaplasia of the prostatic urethral urothelium and subsequent in situ adenocarcinoma sometimes associated with villous adenoma.

These prostatic adenocarcinomas are analogous to nonurachal adenocarcinomas arising in the bladder from cystitis glandularis.

Only 2 cases of urothelial-type adenocarcinoma from an institution other than our own have been previously described.

The distinction between adenocarcinoma from another organ secondarily involving the prostate, usual adenocarcinoma of the prostate, and prostatic urothelial-type adenocarcinoma can present a significant diagnostic challenge and has significant therapeutic implications.

Fifteen cases of prostatic urothelial-type adenocarcinoma were retrieved from the consult files of one of the authors.

Mean patient age at diagnosis was 72 years (range 58 to 93 y).

In 8/15 (53%) cases, glandular metaplasia of the prostatic urethra and contiguous transition to adenocarcinoma were identified.

Immunohistochemical stains were negative for prostate specific antigen, prostate specific acid phosphatase, CDX2, and beta-catenin in all cases.

Prostatic urothelial-type adenocarcinoma is a rare aggressive cancer arising in the prostate.

The differential diagnosis includes conventional prostatic mucinous adenocarcinoma and secondary infiltration from a colonic or bladder adenocarcinoma.

Immunohistochemistry for prostate specific antigen, prostate specific acid phosphatase, and high molecular weight cytokeratin along with morphology can help rule out conventional prostate carcinoma. beta-catenin, CDX2, and clinical studies are needed to rule out colonic adenocarcinoma.

As prostatic urothelial-type adenocarcinoma is entirely analogous to bladder adenocarcinoma in both, its morphology and immunophenotype, only clinical studies or in some cases pathologic examination of the cystoprostatectomy specimen can exclude infiltration from a primary bladder adenocarcinoma.

[Title] Identification and characterization of SP cells in human lung adenocarcinoma SPC-A1 cells.

With an extensive understanding of their biology, a major role for stem cells in the malignant process has been proposed and the existence of cancer stem cells(CSCs) has been confirmed in hematopoietic malignancies, brain cancer, and solid organ malignancies including breast, prostate, colon, and pancreatic cancer.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer mortality in most large cities of China.

It is possible that lung cancer contains cancer stem cells responsible for its malignancy.

The aim of this study is to identify, characterize and enrich the CSC population that drives and maintains lung adenocarcinoma growth and metastasis.

METHODS: Side population (SP) cell analysis and sorting were applied to established human lung adenocarcinoma cell line and an attempt to further enrich them by preliminary serum-free culture before fluorescence activated cell sorting(FACS) was done.

RESULTS: Lung cancer cells could grow in a serum-free Medium (SFM) as non-adherent spheres similar to neurospheres or mammospheres.

Flow cytometric analysis of cell phenotyping showed that SP cells expressed CD133 and CD44, the common cell surface markers of cancer stem cells, while non-SP cells only expressed CD44.

CONCLUSIONS: SP cells existed in human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines and they could be further enriched by preliminary serum-free culture before FACS sorting.

SP cells possessed the properties of cancer stem cells.

[Title] Microvesicular-mediated gene transfer of prostate tumor markers.

Recent work has focused on the potential for cancer vaccines via microvesicles.

Our objective is to determine whether there is transfer of genetic or transcriptional factors via microvesicles from human prostate cancer cells to fresh human marrow cells.

METHODS: Fresh prostate tissue was harvested from surgical specimens following radical retropubic prostatectomy.

Samples were histologically confirmed to contain prostatic adenocarcinoma.

Co-cultures were established using a transwell system in which 0.05-0.100 grams of prostate tissue was minced and co-cultured with 1-3 million normal, human donor marrow cells for 2-7 days.

Target cells were collected and total RNA was analyzed for prostate-specific gene expression byReal Time RT-PCR.

RESULTS: We have observed significant increases in gene expression in marrow cells co-cultured with prostate tumor cells (Gleason grades 6-9).

CONCLUSIONS: These studies demonstrate that prostate specific genes are present in fresh human marrow cells after co-culture with tumor tissue.

[Title] Characterizing the clinical relevance of an embryonic stem cell phenotype in lung adenocarcinoma.

: 11001 Background: Cancer cells possess traits reminiscent of those ascribed to normal stem cells.

It is unclear whether these phenotypic similarities between normal/embryonic stem cells and mature tumor cells, specific to lung cancer, are a result of underlying biologic processes, such as specific molecular pathways and regulatory networks.

METHODS: Using a large cohort of lung cancer cell lines with associated gene expression data, genes associated with an embryonic stem cell identity were used to develop a 'signature' representative of embryonic stemness (ES) activity specific to lung adenocarcinoma.

The ES signature was applied to three independent early (stage I - IIIa) lung adenocarcinoma data sets (N = 634) with clinically annotated gene expression data.

RESULTS: Using Bayesian regression analysis, a 100 gene signature representative of ES activity in lung adenocarcinoma was developed and validated in a leave-one-out-analysis.

GSEA identified gene sets significantly represented in the ES signature: signature of neoplastic transformation, signature of undifferentiated cancer, BRCA pathway, and fibroblast serum response pathway, all associated with cancer invasiveness.

The ES signature was not prognostic in prostate, ovarian, or breast adenocarcinomas.

Lung tumors (N=634) and adenocarcinoma cell lines (N=31) with ES were more resistant to cisplatin (p<0.0001 and p=0.0063, respectively).

: e14575 Background: Tumoral Gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) receptors are potential targets for diagnosis and therapy using radiolabeled or cytotoxic GRP analogs.

GRP-receptor overexpression has been detected in cancer cells and, more recently, also in the vascular bed of selected tumors.

More information on vascular GRP-receptors in cancer is required to asses their potential for vascular targeting applications.

METHODS: Frequent human cancers from the breast (n=134), lung (n=57), prostate (n=50), kidney (n=32), colon (n=46), urinary tract (n=26) and biliary tract (n=23) were analyzed using in vitro GRP-receptor autoradiography on tissue sections with the ¹²⁵I-[Tyr⁴]-bombesin radioligand and/or the universal radioligand ¹²⁵I-[D-Tyr⁶, ß-Ala¹¹, Phe¹³, Nle¹⁴]-bombesin(6-14).

RESULTS: Prevalence of vascular GRP-receptors is variable, ranging from 13% (prostate cancer) to 92% (urinary tract cancer).

Different tumor-types within a given site may have divergent prevalence of vascular GRP-receptors (e.g. lung: small cell cancer: 0%; adenocarcinoma: 59%; squamous carcinoma: 83%).

Also the vascular score varies widely, with highest score in urinary tract cancer (1.69), moderate scores in lung (0.91), colon (0.88), kidney (0.84) and biliary tract (0.69) cancers and low scores in breast (0.39) and prostate (0.14) cancers.

[Title] Dynamics of the structural and electrical characteristics of erythrocytes in men with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the prostate before and after plastic orchiectomy.

The changes of electrophoretic mobility of erythrocytes in the practically healthy men and in men with metastatic prostate cancer before and after castration were studied.

Investigation revealed, that the level of electrophoretic mobility of erythrocytes was decreased in the blood of metastatic prostate cancer patients (before castration), as compared with control group and with post operational period data.

It was found, that during the malignant adenocarcinoma of prostate (before and after surgery) pathological changes in organism effect erythrocytes superficial membranes and alter their electrical and structural parameters.

Probably, that is one of the reasons of considerable decrease of erythrocytes electrophoretic mobility in patients with metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma (before castration).

[Title] Initial Diagnosis of Mediastinal Lymph Node Metastases From Prostate Cancer by Endobronchial Ultrasound-guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration.

Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration was performed; cytology revealed adenocarcinoma, whereas histology contained adenocarcinoma of prostate origin.

Immunohistochemistry was strongly positive for prostate-specific antigen and prostate-specific acid phosphate for confirmation of metastases from the prostate cancer and negative for thyroid transcription factor-1.

Hence, the patient was diagnosed as having lymph node metastasis from a prostate cancer.

After the initial diagnosis, needle biopsy of the prostate was performed, and prostate cancer was confirmed.

[Title] Prostate specific antigen ratio: for diagnosis and assessment of aggressiveness of malignancy of prostate.

The search for a perfect tumour marker, which would be able to distinguish benign from malignant enlargement of prostate accurately, is still not complete.

Total Prostate Specific Antigen (TPSA), a good test, has it's own inadequacies but Free Prostate Specific Antigen (FPSA) to TPSA ratio is emerging as a better adjuvant to it.

This prospective study was done to verify the utility of FPSA to TPSA ratio in diagnosis of malignancy of prostate and its relationship to Gleason grading (indicating the aggressiveness) of adenocarcinoma of prostate.

100 patients with urinary symptoms, who were above fifty years of age and had prostatic enlargement, formed the study group.

Prostatic biopsy of all the cases was obtained and diagnostic histopathology and Gleason grading (in cases where adenocarcinoma was diagnosed) was done.

Thus making it very obvious that FPSA to TPSA ratio is an excellent adjuvant to TPSA for diagnosis of malignancy of prostate increasing the specificity and predictive value for positive test.

An inverse correlation (correlation coefficient = -0.95) was also found between PSA ratio and aggressiveness of prostate cancer, pointing towards its capability to predict the histological (Gleason) grade of the tumour.

[Title] Suppression of prostate cancer in a transgenic rat model via gamma-tocopherol activation of caspase signaling.

BACKGROUND: Epidemiological data indicate that intake of one form of vitamin E, gamma-tocopherol, may reduce prostate cancer risk, and several in vitro studies have demonstrated that gamma-tocopherol can inhibit prostate cancer cell growth.

The purpose of the present study was to confirm effects of gamma-tocopherol on prostate cancer in the transgenic rat for adenocarcinoma of prostate (TRAP) model established in our laboratory.

However, quantitative evaluation of prostatic lesions demonstrated significantly suppression of sequential progression from PIN to adenocarcinoma in a dose-dependent manner, along with clear activation of caspases 3 and 7 in the ventral lobe in both experiments.

CONCLUSIONS: The present study clearly demonstrated that gamma-tocopherol suppresses prostate tumor progression in an in vivo TRAP model, and could be a candidate chemopreventive agent for human prostate cancer.

AVI-4126, a PMO targeted against c-MYC, has been extensively characterized in multiple cancer and other disease models and is currently in human clinical trials.

A phase I clinical study was conducted to address the issue of PMO bioavailability in malignant tumors surgically excised from patients with adenocarcinoma of prostate and breast 1 day after i.v. administration of a single dose of 90 mg AVI-4126 PMO.

Significant concentrations of intact PMO similar to the animal models were detected in both human prostate and breast tumor tissues with increased distribution in the tumor core for the vascular breast tumors.

No serious adverse events (graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria) were reported.

These studies show PMO bioavailability in tumor tissue and establish the feasibility of using PMO targeting specific genes in human cancer clinical trials.

[Title] Mucin-producing urothelial-type adenocarcinoma of prostate: report of two cases of a rare and diagnostically challenging entity.

The differential diagnosis of mucin-producing adenocarcinoma of the prostate includes conventional prostatic adenocarcinoma with mucin production, secondary adenocarcinoma usually of colorectal origin and, very rarely, urothelial-type adenocarcinoma arising from either the prostatic urethra or proximal ducts.

Conventional prostatic adenocarcinoma with mucin production is readily identified by routine microscopy and immunohistochemistry.

The distinction between secondary adenocarcinoma and urothelial-type adenocarcinoma, however, can present a significant diagnostic challenge.

In addition, documented examples of the latter in the prostate are exceptionally rare.

A transurethral resection of prostate specimen and prostatic needle biopsies from two patients showing urothelial-type adenocarcinoma of the prostate were identified in our consultation files.

Transurethral resection of prostate material from two patients with clinically confirmed secondary adenocarcinoma of colonic origin involving the prostate and a prostatectomy specimen with mucinous conventional prostatic adenocarcinoma were also identified for comparison purposes.

Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections were stained for prostate-specific antigen (PSA), prostatic acid phosphatase, carcinoembryonic antigen, cytokeratin 7, cytokeratin 20 and high molecular weight cytokeratin 34betaE12.

The urothelial-type adenocarcinoma cases were diffusely positive for cytokeratin 7 and focally positive for 34betaE12 and cytokeratin 20, consistent with an origin from the urothelium of the prostatic urethra or proximal prostatic ducts.

In contrast, the secondary adenocarcinoma of colonic origin cases were diffusely cytokeratin 20 positive and either negative or focally positive for cytokeratin 7 and negative for 34betaE12.

The mucinous conventional prostatic adenocarcinoma was positive for PSA and prostatic acid phosphatase and negative for cytokeratin 7, cytokeratin 20 and 34betaE12.

[Title] Radical prostatectomy and postoperative radiation in patients with adenocarcinoma of prostate of intermediate and high risk for recurrence.

METHODS: Eighty-five consecutive patients categorized as intermediate (17.5%) and high risk (82.5%) of failure after definitive therapy for carcinoma of prostate according to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) underwent RP between 1989 and 1997.

Cancer-specific mortality was 3.5%.

CONCLUSIONS: In the intermediate and high-risk groups of patients with nonpalpable prostate cancer, RP and adjuvant RT may provide a biochemical recurrence-free rate (bRFR) comparable to that reported in other series with RP alone on patients in the low-risk groups.

[Title] Improved biochemical relapse-free survival for patients with large/wide glands treated with prostate seed implantation for localized adenocarcinoma of prostate.

OBJECTIVES: To analyze whether prostate size affects biochemical relapse-free survival (bRFS).

All patients were treated with iodine-125 alone as the radiotherapeutic modality and had a minimum of four posttreatment prostate-specific antigen values.

The factors examined in the univariate and multivariate analyses predicting for bRFS included gland volume, patient age, initial prostate-specific antigen value, biopsy Gleason score, clinical stage, and postimplant dosimetric variables.

On separate multivariate analyses, only the pretreatment prostate width and volume significantly influenced bRFS favorably (P = 0.0069 and P = 0.0255, respectively).

No association was found between gland size/width and postimplant dosimetry.

[Title] [Combined small-cell carcinoma/adenocarcinoma of prostate: report of two cases].

We report two cases of combined small-cell carcinoma (SCC) and adenocarcinoma of prostate.

Whole body computed tomography (CT) revealed prostatic swelling, pancreatic mass, para-aortic lymphadenopathies, and multiple lung nodules.

Elevation of tumor markers (prostate specific antigen [PSA, 1,760 ng/ml] and neuron-specific enolase [NSE, 88 ng/ml]) was noted.

Needle biopsy of the prostate demonstrated both SCC and adenocarcinoma.

The patient died three months after the diagnosis.

The symptom and elevated serum PSA (23.1 ng/ml) prompted prostatic needle biopsy, which demonstrated combined SCC/adenocarcinoma.

Treatment of combined SCC and adenocarcinoma of prostate poses a dilemma.

In Case 1, MAB was effective for adenocarcinoma but not for SCC.

Much remains to be elucidated to better manage combined SCC/adenocarcinoma of prostate.

[Title] Xanthoma of the prostate: a mimicker of high-grade prostate adenocarcinoma.

Prostatic xanthoma may mimic high-grade prostatic adenocarcinoma or prostate cancer treated with hormone therapy.

From 1995 to 2006, 40 cases of prostatic xanthoma were diagnosed at The Johns Hopkins Hospital.

Xanthoma was found on needle biopsy in 25 cases, with 2 cases noted on transurethral resection of prostate.

Twenty-six cases contained only 1 focus of prostatic xanthoma with 1 case having 3 foci on the same core biopsy specimen.

Ten xanthomas consisted of cords and individual cells infiltrating the prostatic stroma, further mimicking high-grade prostate carcinoma.

One of 15 (6.7%), 2/17 (11.8%), and 1/12 (8.3%) cases were positive for prostate-specific antigen, prostate-specific acid phosphatase, and alpha-methylacyl-CoA racemase, respectively.

Careful attention to morphology with adjunctive use of CD68 and CAM5.2 immunohistochemical stains are helpful in the diagnosis of prostatic xanthoma, especially in difficult cases with an infiltrative pattern.

[Title] [Choroidal metastasis from clinically regressed prostate adenocarcinoma: imaging of a rare case].

[Transliterated title] Métastase choroïdienne d'un adénocarcinome de la prostate: iconographie d'un cas rare.

We report a rare case of prostatic adenocarcinoma metastases at the choroids, diagnosed and followed by fluorescein angiography (FA), indocyanine-green angiography (ICGA), and optical coherence tomography (OCT-3 Stratus).

The systemic workup, including hematologic analysis and total-body computed tomography (CT), revealed elevated serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and alkaline phosphatase, extensive abnormalities of the axial skeleton, and nodular pulmonary shadows; therefore, prostatic adenocarcinoma was suspected.

Needle biopsies (prostatic and pulmonary) confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate, with metastatic disease.

DISCUSSION: Prostatic carcinoma should be considered in any male patient with a choroidal mass suspected of being a metastasis.

In our patient, FA, ICGA, and OCT clearly documented the complete regression of choroidal metastasis from prostatic carcinoma.

Fluorescein angiography, indocyanine-green angiography, and optical coherence tomography are useful tools in the diagnosis and follow-up of prostatic adenocarcinoma metastatic to the choroid.

[Title] [Expression of the cerbB-2 (HER-2/neu) oncoprotein in prostatic adenocarcinoma].

[Transliterated title] Estudio de la expresión de cerbB-2 en el adenocarcinoma de próstata.

OBJECTIVES: Our aim is to determine the expression of the cerbB-2 oncoprotein in prostate cancers using an immunohistochemistry staining and to compare these results with several clinical and histological prognostic factors.

METHODS: An immunohistochemical staining using the cerbB-2 monoclonal antibody (Dako) was performed in 32 radical prostatectomy specimens diagnosed of adenocarcinoma.

1) This study shows that 44% of all prostate cancer express the cerbB-2 oncoprotein with immunohistochemical technique.

2) These findings suggest that is necessary to standardize the immunohistochemical staining procedure with cerbB-2 in prostate adenocarcinoma.

[Title] [Watchful waiting in incidental adenocarcinoma of the prostate].

[Transliterated title] Actitud expectante en el adenocarcinoma incidental de próstata.

OBJECTIVE: To describe the outcome of patients diagnosed of incidental prostate adenocarcinoma managed by watchful waiting.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: We included patients with PSA< 4 ng/mL or higher with previous negative biopsy, who underwent surgery for BPH being diagnosed of incidental prostate adenocarcinoma.

We performed a descriptive and retrospective study in patients with this diagnosis between 1992 and 2007.

Progression variables were: age, preoperative and postoperative PSA, stage, Gleason score, prostate volume, initial treatment, PSA evolution and salvage treatment if necessary.

RESULTS: 47 patients were diagnosed of incidental prostatic adenocarcinoma, finding an incidence of 4.25%.

CONCLUSION: Watchful waiting is a useful option in patients with incidental prostate adenocarcinoma and favourable prognostic criteria.

[Title] Prognostic value of DNA analysis of prostate adenocarcinoma: correlation to clinicopathologic predictors.

The ability to accurately predict tumor behavior and patient survival is a problem in managing patients with prostate cancer.

DNA ploidy provides important information for the evaluation of the prognosis of prostate cancer.

The aim of this study was to investigate the DNA ploidy in imprints from prostate adenocarcinomas in a group of 70 patients in relation to Gleason score, tumor differentiation, stage and PSA serum levels.

Our results conclude that DNA ploidy status appears to be an additional marker in the field of prognosis of prostatic adenocarcinoma and could provide useful information on the potential behavior of prostate cancer.

[Title] Prognostic value of DNA ploidy, bcl-2 and p53 in localized prostate adenocarcinoma incidentally discovered at transurethral prostatectomy.

PURPOSE: Discovery of prostatic adenocarcinoma limited to transurethral resection material generates a treatment dilemma.

We investigated the usefulness of parameters shown to be associated with prognosis in prostate cancer (p53 and bcl-2 immuno-expression, DNA cell cycle analysis and Gleason score) to stratify these incidentally identified tumors to guide clinical decision making.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: Paraffin embedded tissues from transurethral prostate resection specimens containing T1a prostate adenocarcinoma from 44 patients who underwent resection between 1980 and 1990 were immunostained for p53 and bcl-2, and subjected to flow cytometry to determine DNA ploidy.

Statistical relationships among these 4 variables, tumor progression and cancer specific survival were analyzed.

RESULTS: Six of 44 patients in the study population had cancer progression.

Only 2 tumors studied were aneuploid and neither of these 2 patients had cancer progression.

Only Gleason score was a significant predictor of cancer progression on univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis (p = 0.045 and 0.046, respectively).

CONCLUSIONS: For T1a prostate cancer incidentally detected on transurethral prostate resection p53 and bcl-2 immuno-expression, and DNA ploidy do not predict survival or disease progression.

[Title] BRAF and KRAS mutations in prostatic adenocarcinoma.

RAS mutations are known to occur in prostate adenocarcinomas, but little is known about BRAF mutations in these tumors.

In the present study, BRAF and KRAS mutations were characterized in 206 prostate adenocarcinomas by enhanced PCR-RFLP and direct sequencing.

Mutations in codon 600 of BRAF were identified in 21 (10.2%) of 206 prostate adenocarcinomas.

KRAS mutations in codons 12 or 13 were found in 15 (7.3%) of 206 prostate adenocarcinomas.

Prostate adenocarcinomas with a BRAF mutation tended to show higher preoperative serum PSA levels, Gleason scores and tumor stages than prostate adenocarcinomas with a KRAS mutation.

The results obtained show that BRAF mutations are as uncommon as KRAS mutations in prostate adenocarcinoma.

Although BRAF and KRAS are members of the same RAS/ERK signaling pathway, prostate adenocarcinomas with a BRAF mutation showed clinicopathologic features that differed from those of prostate adenocarcinoma with a KRAS mutation.

[Title] p53 and p21/WAF-1 overexpressions in prostatic adenocarcinoma.

OBJECTIVES: This study was carried out to determine the role of p53 and p21 in the pathogenesis of prostatic adenocarcinoma and their association with tumour grade.

METHOD: Sixty-seven histologically confirmed prostatic adenocarcinoma cases collected from Hospital Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia and General Hospital Kuala Lumpur were studied.

RESULTS: IHC positivity for p53 was expressed in 1/2 (50%) low grade, 14/33 (42%) intermediate grade, and 21/32 (66%) high grade tumours. p21 was expressed in 0/2 low grade, 16/33 (48%) intermediate grade and 15/32 (47%) high grade tumours. p53 and p21 expressions did not show statistically significant correlation with the different grades of prostatic adenocarcinoma or with each other (p = 0.42).

CONCLUSION: Although the p53 positivity rate was higher in high-grade prostate adenocarcinoma, this was not statistically significant.

[Title] Epigenetic events, remodelling enzymes and their relationship to chromatin organization in prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia and prostatic adenocarcinoma.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the nuclear chromatin phenotype, overall epigenetic mechanisms, chromatin remodelling enzymes and their role as diagnostic biomarkers in prostate lesions, using high-resolution computerized quantitative digital image analysis (DIA).

MATERIALS AND METHODS: A tissue microarray (TMA) was constructed using paraffin wax-embedded prostatic tissues from 78 patients, containing 30 cores of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), 10 of low-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (LGPIN), 38 of prostate adenocarcinoma, 20 of BPH tissue excised at 0.6-1 mm from LGPIN lesions, and 10 of BPH prostatic tissues obtained 0.6-1 mm from high-grade PIN (HGPIN) lesions.

In PIN lesions, there was a high chromatin content with DNA-hypermethylation, while in prostatic adenocarcinoma there was a lower chromatin content with DNA-hypomethylation and H3K9-hypoacetylation.

CONCLUSIONS: The present study confirms the ability of high-resolution computerized digital imaging of nuclear texture features to detect changes in chromatin phenotype, epigenetic events and the presence of chromatin remodelling, factors that can be used to distinguish between different prostatic pathologies, i.e.

BPH, LGPIN, HGPIN and prostate adenocarcinoma, and further allow the detection of MAC near PIN lesions.

Further studies are needed to elucidate the complex interplay between chromatin structure, its modifications and the progression of prostate cancer.

[Title] Number and location of nucleoli and presence of apoptotic bodies in diagnostically challenging cases of prostate adenocarcinoma on needle biopsy.

There is limited published data regarding the significance of the number or position of nucleoli and the presence of apoptotic bodies in diagnostically challenging cases of adenocarcinoma of the prostate on needle biopsy material.

One hundred consecutive prostate cancers on needle biopsy were sent because of diagnostic difficulty to an expert in urological pathology, and the remaining normal benign prostatic glands on the same core were evaluated for the number and location of nucleoli and for the presence of mitotic figures and apoptotic bodies.

For comparison, the same parameters were evaluated in mimickers of cancer on needle biopsy from other cases, including partial atrophy (n = 135), fully developed atrophy (n = 89), adenosis (n = 50), prostate glands with acute inflammation (n = 50), and high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (n = 100).

Although the number and position of nucleoli did not discriminate between cancer and benign mimickers, mitotic figures and apoptotic bodies were more commonly seen in cancer.

Apoptotic bodies in particular were seen fairly frequently (34%) in prostatic adenocarcinoma (also seen in 13% of high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia), yet rarely in benign mimickers on needle biopsy.

Our findings indicate that the presence of apoptotic bodies should be added to the list of histological features that are helpful in the diagnosis of challenging cases of prostate cancer on needle biopsy.

[Title] Differential expression of steroid receptors in prostate tissues before and after radiation therapy for prostatic adenocarcinoma.

The expression, distribution and the role of steroid receptors in benign and malignant untreated prostate tissues is well recognized, however, the status of steroid receptors in prostate after radiotherapy (RT) for adenocarcinoma has not yet been studied fully.

Immunohistochemical evaluation of androgen receptor (AR), estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-alpha), estrogen receptor-beta (ER-beta), and progesterone receptor (PR) was carried out in prostate needle biopsies obtained before and after radiotherapy from 60 patients with adenocarcinoma.

The ER-beta transcripts were also studied by RT-PCR in LNCaP prostate carcinoma cell line before and 24 hr after gamma-irradiation at 0.5 Gy and 8.0 Gy.

Significantly higher level of ER-beta expression was found in post-radiation samples of prostate adenocarcinoma and benign epithelium.

After RT, all steroid receptors were upregulated in prostatic stroma.

Although a positive association between AR and ER-beta expression was observed in pre-treatment prostate adenocarcinoma, it was lost after RT suggesting that these 2 steroid receptors respond differently to RT.

Upregulation of all steroid receptors in the prostate stroma and upregulation of ER-beta in the tumor epithelium after RT, may represent a protective tissue response to radiation-induced tissue injury.

[Title] Distal seminal vesicle invasion by prostate adenocarcinoma does not occur in isolation of proximal seminal vesicle invasion or lymphovascular infiltration.

AIMS: Seminal vesicle (SV) invasion by prostatic adenocarcinoma is a poor prognostic indicator.

This study examines the distribution of invasive prostatic adenocarcinoma in SVs and makes recommendations regarding sampling procedures.

The site of invasive prostatic carcinoma within the muscular wall of the SV and its presence in the ejaculatory duct was recorded.

Patients ranged in age from 52 to 73 years (mean 64 years), with a serum prostatic specific antigen ranging from 3.7 to 46 ng/mL (mean 10.6 ng/mL).

All but one of the SV positive cases (98.2%) had involvement of the proximal third (15 right, 17 left and 23 both) of the gland, 35 of which (63.6%) had infiltration only of the proximal SV.

Lymphovascular invasion within the prostate was seen in 71.4% of cases.

[Title] Phenotypic characterization of the infiltrating immune cells in normal prostate, benign nodular prostatic hyperplasia and prostatic adenocarcinoma.

BACKGROUND: Immune cell infiltrate is a constant feature in normal prostate, benign nodular prostatic hyperplasia and prostatic adenocarcinoma.

This study elaborates on the cells of the immune system present in normal prostate, benign nodular prostatic hyperplasia and prostatic adenocarcinoma.

HYPOTHESIS: Here, we hypothesized that "the development of benign nodular prostatic hyperplasia and prostatic adenocarcinoma is associated with numeric alterations of the immune cell infiltrate".

MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 50 transurethral prostatic resection specimens, each entailing normal prostate, benign nodular prostatic hyperplasia and high grade prostatic adenocarcinoma were evaluated for the density and phenotype of the immune cells using immunohistological methods and mouse monoclonal antibodies decorating T cells (CD3), histiocytes (CD68) and B lymphocytes (CD20).

We observed variations in the density of the immune cells among the normal prostate, benign nodular prostatic hyperplasia and high grade prostatic adenocarcinoma.

Compared with normal prostate, benign nodular prostatic hyperplasia had a statistically significant high density of immune cells (3.4+/-0.4versus 13.5+/-1.0, P<0.00).

In contrast, a significant decrease in the counts of these cells was observed in high-grade prostatic adenocarcinoma compared to benign nodular prostatic hyperplasia (13.5+/-1.0 versus 5.2+/-0.3, P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONS: The increased density of immune cells (predominantly CD(+)3 T cells) in benign nodular prostatic hyperplasia suggests that the initial response to cellular damage is mediated by cell-mediated immunity.

The decreased density of immune cells in high-grade prostatic adenocarcinoma may reflect immunosuppression.

[Title] Can telomere alterations predict biochemical recurrence in prostate adenocarcinoma? A preliminary study.

Telomere shortening can be one of the ways that cause chromosomal instability in the pathogenesis of prostatic carcinoma.

In the current study, we evaluated telomere length (TL) in normal and malignant prostate tissues, and its association with prognostic factors and with time to biochemical tumor recurrence.

The majority (49/61) of prostate cancers displayed abnormally short telomeres.

Telomere shortening is a common alteration in prostatic adenocarcinoma.

[Title] Use of picosecond Kerr-gated Raman spectroscopy to suppress signals from both surface and deep layers in bladder and prostate tissue.

Prostate samples for this study were obtained by taking a chip at the transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), and bladder samples from a biopsy taken at transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) and TURP.

Spectra obtained through the bladder and prostate gland tissue, at different time delays after the laser pulse, clearly show change in the spectra as depth profiling occurs, eventually showing signals from the uric acid cell and urea cell, respectively.

We show for the first time, using this novel technique, that we are able to obtain spectra from different depths through both the prostate gland and the bladder.

This has major implications in the future of Raman spectroscopy as a tool for diagnosis.

With the help of Raman spectroscopy and Kerr gating, it may be possible to pick up the spectral differences from a small focus of adenocarcinoma of the prostate gland in an otherwise benign gland, and also stage the bladder cancers by assessing the base of the tumor post resection.

[Title] Urothelial carcinoma and prostatic adenocarcinoma presenting as collision tumors.

Urothelial carcinoma (UC) and prostatic adenocarcinoma (PAC) commonly occur in elderly patients and share common carcinogenic factors that could be identified in the urine.

Simultaneous occurrence of PAC and UC in the prostate is not uncommon; however, urinary bladder location of both lesions has not yet been reported.

All patients were diagnosed with high grade PAC and either had simultaneous at the initial diagnosis or developed UC during the follow up for PAC.

In conclusion, awareness of this association is important in making the correct diagnosis, especially when dealing with urinary bladder biopsy material.

[Title] Dietary genistein improves survival and reduces expression of osteopontin in the prostate of transgenic mice with prostatic adenocarcinoma (TRAMP).

Studies in vitro suggest that osteopontin (OPN), an extracellular matrix protein secreted by macrophages infiltrating prostate tumors, and by tumor cells, may have a role in the transition from clinically insignificant tumors to metastatic prostate cancer (PC).

Our earlier studies in TRAnsgenic Mouse Prostate adenocarcinoma (TRAMP) mice showed that genistein, an isoflavone found in soybeans, lowered the incidence of advanced PC.

Administration of 250 and 500 mg genistein/kg AIN-76A improved survival (P = 0.008 and P = 0.005, respectively) and reduced mean weight of prostates with poorly differentiated cancer (PD) (P < 0.001), as well as the mean weight of periaortic lymph nodes (LN), although the latter was not significant.

OPN mRNA levels in the dorsolateral prostate and metastasis to LN were significantly correlated (r = 0.643; P = 0.00006).

Genistein had a dose-dependent, significant inhibitory effect on OPN transcript levels in prostates displaying advanced prostate cancer (PD; score 6; P = 0.05).

[Title] Metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma presenting with pulmonary symptoms: a case report and review of the literature.

INTRODUCTION: Prostate cancer has a high tendency to spread to bone.

Few patients with prostate cancer present initially with symptomatic metastatic lung lesions and lymphadenopathy without any other concomitant distant dissemination.

Despite the absence of any detectable osseous lesions and with the presence of multiple hilar, mediastinal, para-aortic, and pelvic lymphadenopathy, the patient had a complete work-up in search for the primary adenocarcinoma.

His prostate specific antigen was 146 ng/ml and a prostatic biopsy done, revealing an acinar prostatic adenocarcinoma.

A tru-cut biopsy of a lung lesion under computed tomography guidance showed a metastatic prostatic adenocarcinoma positive for prostate specific antigen stain.

CONCLUSION: This case sheds light on an unusual metastatic pattern of prostatic adenocarcinoma.

It also emphasizes the importance of including prostate cancer in the differential diagnosis of men with adenocarcinoma of unknown origin.

[Title] Ureteric stricture secondary to unusual extension of prostatic adenocarcinoma.

This article describes an unusual finding in a patient who presented with an adenocarcinoma of the prostate and right hydronephrosis.

Cystoscopy showed an exophytic superficial transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder and a transrectal biopsy of the prostate confirmed adenocarcinoma Gleason score 4+3.

Staging investigations (CT pelvis and bone scan) were negative; androgen deprivation therapy was therefore initiated for the prostatic adenocarcinoma.

With a working diagnosis of upper tract TCC, right open nephroureterectomy was performed.

Final histology showed prostatic adenocarcinoma infiltrating the adventitia of the entire ureter up to the level of the renal pelvis.

A rare cause of ureteric stricture, contiguous spread of prostatic adenocarcinoma, should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with upper tract obstruction and a known history of prostatic adenocarcinoma.

[Title] Metastasis of prostatic adenocarcinoma to the sphenoid sinus.

The presentation, diagnosis, and management of prostatic adenocarcinoma metastatic to the sphenoid sinus are reviewed.

A 67-year-old man with a history of prostatic adenocarcinoma presented with gradual left visual loss.

Operative biopsy of the lesion was significant for adenocarcinoma of the prostate.

When an otolaryngologist encounters a mass in the sphenoid sinus, he or she needs to consider a diverse differential diagnosis.

As in this clinical scenario of a patient with a history of prostatic adenocarcinoma, appropriate analysis would entail sending specimens for immunohistochemical staining, such as prostate-specific antigen and prostate-specific acid phosphatase.

Correct diagnosis is crucial, as these patients may achieve remission and prolonged survival with irradiation and/or hormonal therapy.

[Title] Single small focus of prostate adenocarcinoma (< or = 1 mm and too small for grading) and clinical significant disease after radical prostatectomy.

OBJECTIVES: To determine whether a clinical significant adenocarcinoma of the cinoma (defined as a lesion < or =1 mm. and too small for grading) at needle biopsy, even repeated, and through prostate specific antigen (PSA), PSA density (PSAD) and free-to-total PSA ratio (f/t ratio).

METHODS: Retrospectively 79/1610 consecutive patients undergoing prostatic needle biopsies presented one small focus of prostatic adenocarcinoma < or =1 mm and too small for grading.

All patients were submitted to radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP) and were divided into three groups: group A (28/79 patients, 35.4%) submitted to RRP after diagnosis of just one small focus of adenocarcinoma at first biopsy; group B (26/79 patients, 32.9%) submitted to RRP after two successive diagnoses of small focus of adenocarcinoma; group C (25/79 patients, 31.6%) submitted to RRP after diagnosis of adenocarcinoma larger than 1 mm at successive biopsy in which Gleason score had been applied.

The aim of this retrospective study is to analyze the correlation between a single small focus of adenocarcinoma by prostatic biopsy, even repeated, and the clinical significant disease on the following radical retropubic prostatectomy.

[Title] [Expression of kinase insert domain-containing receptor in prostate adenocarcinoma].

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlation between the expression of the kinase insert domain-containing receptor (KDR) and the histological grade of prostate adenocarcinoma.

METHODS: Forty-eight samples of prostate adenocarcinoma tissues and 20 samples of benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) tissues were studied by LsAB immunohistochemical staining.

RESULTS: The positive expression rate of KDR was 73% in prostate adenocarcinoma and 30% in BPH.

The expression of KDR was stronger in prostate adenocarcinoma, and there was no relationship between staining intensity and the histological grade of carcinoma.

CONCLUSION: KDR, expressed more highly in prostate adenocarcinoma, promises to be a new target in the treatment of prostate adenocarcinoma.

[Title] Clinicopathological behavior of single focus prostate adenocarcinoma.

PURPOSE: With the increasing use of focal therapy for prostate adenocarcinoma a pathological basis for its appropriate application must be established.

We determined the clinicopathological characteristics and natural history of single focus prostate cancer since this entity seems to be the ideal target for focal therapy.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: We queried the Center for Prostate Disease Research database for all patients who underwent radical prostatectomy at Walter Reed Army Medical Center from 1993 through 2008.

Patients with single focus prostate adenocarcinoma were compared with those who had multifocal disease.

CONCLUSIONS: Single focus prostate cancer appears to have more aggressive behavior than multifocal disease.

[Title] Lymphatic vessel densities of lymph node-negative prostate adenocarcinoma in Korea.

Although lymphatic vessel density (LVD) is associated with regional lymph node (LN) metastasis in prostate adenocarcinoma, no study is available that examines whether the LVD is correlated with prognostic factors other than LN metastasis in LN-negative prostate adenocarcinoma.

The aim of our study was to analyze intratumoral (IT), peritumoral (PT), and nontumoral (NT) LVDs, and to determine if there is a correlation between the LVD and the clinicopathological parameters in the Korean LN-negative prostate adenocarcinoma patients.

The IT-LVD was significantly lower in patients with larger tumor volume (P=0.029) and higher preoperative prostate-specific antigen level (P=0.008).

Our results suggest that IT- and PT-LVDs may increase in LN-negative prostate adenocarcinoma as a result of lymphangiogenesis, but IT lymphatics may decrease due to mechanical compression and destruction caused by proliferating tumor cells.

In addition, IT-LVD may be used as a prognostic factor in LN-negative prostate adenocarcinoma.

[Title] Intraluminal crystalloids are highly associated with prostatic adenocarcinoma on concurrent biopsy specimens.

Prostatic crystalloids are intraluminal eosinophilic structures with variable size and shape.

Their presence has been described in conjunction with the occurrence of prostatic adenocarcinoma (pCA).

We herein report the association of crystalloids and pCA in a prospective trial utilizing an extended multi-site transrectal ultrasound-guided (TRUS) prostate biopsy protocol.

Indications for biopsy included a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) > or =4 ng/ml and/or abnormal digital rectal exam.

Overall cancer detection rate was 42.7%.

pCA was diagnosed in 66 (81.5%) of 81 patients with crystalloids, 70 (69.3%) of 101 patients with high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN), and 32 (84.2%) of 38 patients with both HGPIN and crystalloids on biopsy.

Multivariate analysis identified crystalloids (RR 4.53, 95% CI 2.30-8.88) and HGPIN (RR 3.20, 95% CI 1.84-5.57) as independent predictors of the presence of cancer on concurrent biopsy (P<0.001).

These findings suggest that the presence of crystalloids alone or in combination with HGPIN in prostate biopsies may be a more compelling indication for repeat biopsy than HGPIN alone.

[Title] Clinical characteristics and primary treatment of prostate cancer in Sweden between 1996 and 2005.

OBJECTIVE: The incidence of prostate cancer is rising rapidly in Sweden and there is a need to better understand the pattern of diagnosis, tumor characteristics and treatment.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: Between 1996 and 2005, all new cases of adenocarcinoma of the prostate gland were intended to be registered in the National Prostate Cancer Register (NPCR).

This register contains information on diagnosing unit, date of diagnosis, cause of diagnosis, tumor grade, tumor stage according to the TNM classification in force, serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels at diagnosis and primary treatment given within the first 6 months after diagnosis.

RESULTS: In total, 72,028 patients were registered, comprising >97% of all pertinent incident cases of prostate cancer in the Swedish Cancer Register (SCR).

During the study period there was a considerable decrease in median age at the time of diagnosis, a stage migration towards smaller tumors, a decrease in median serum PSA values at diagnosis, a decrease in the age-standardized incidence rate of men diagnosed with distant metastases or with a PSA level of > 100 ng/ml at diagnosis and an increase in the proportion of tumors with Gleason score <6.

Relatively large geographical differences in the median age at diagnosis and the age-standardized incidence of cases with category T1c tumors were observed.

In men with localized tumors and a PSA level of <20 ng/ml at diagnosis, expectant treatment was more commonly used in those aged > or =75 years than in those aged <75 years.

The patterns of diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer vary considerably in different parts of Sweden.

The NPCR continues to be an important source for research, epidemiological surveillance of the incidence, diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer.
