前列腺癌(PCa)是一种发生于前列腺组织中的恶性肿瘤,是前列腺腺泡细胞异常无序生长的结果.PCa发病率具有明显的地理和种族差异,在欧美等发达国家和地区,是男性最常见的恶性肿瘤,病死率居各种癌症第2位[1];在亚洲,其发病率低于西方国家,但近年来随着人口老龄化及生活条件的改善,发病率呈迅速上升趋势[2];在我国,PCa在男性泌尿、生殖系统恶性肿瘤中发病率已跃居第3位,患者主要是老年人,严重影响着我国老年男性的晚年生活质量[3,4].PCa的生存率有赖于早期的诊断和治疗,生物标志物往往能先于其他手段如直肠指检(DRE)、超声等检出癌症,故寻找有效的生物标志物一直是研究的热点.现就PCa生物标志物研究进展作一综述. 相似文献

Improved approaches for the detection of common epithelial malignancies are urgently needed to reduce the worldwide morbidity and mortality caused by cancer. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small ( approximately 22 nt) regulatory RNAs that are frequently dysregulated in cancer and have shown promise as tissue-based markers for cancer classification and prognostication. We show here that miRNAs are present in human plasma in a remarkably stable form that is protected from endogenous RNase activity. miRNAs originating from human prostate cancer xenografts enter the circulation, are readily measured in plasma, and can robustly distinguish xenografted mice from controls. This concept extends to cancer in humans, where serum levels of miR-141 (a miRNA expressed in prostate cancer) can distinguish patients with prostate cancer from healthy controls. Our results establish the measurement of tumor-derived miRNAs in serum or plasma as an important approach for the blood-based detection of human cancer. 相似文献

In response to an urgent need for improved diagnostic and predictive serum biomarkers for management of metastatic prostate cancer, we used phage display fingerprinting to analyze sequentially acquired serum samples from a patient with advancing prostate cancer. We identified a peptide ligand, CTFAGSSC, demonstrating an increased recovery frequency over time. Serum antibody reactivity to this peptide epitope increased in the index patient, in parallel with development of deteriorating symptoms. The antigen mimicking the peptide epitope was identified as alpha-2–Heremans–Schmid glycoprotein, also known as fetuin-A. Metastatic prostate cancer cell lines and bone metastasis samples displayed robust fetuin-A expression, and we demonstrated serum immune reactivity to fetuin-A with concomitant development of metastatic castrate-resistant disease in a large cohort of prostate cancer patients. Whereas fetuin-A is an established tumor antigen in several types of cancer, including breast cancer, glioblastoma, and pancreas cancer, this report is to our knowledge the first study implicating fetuin-A in prostate cancer and indicating that autoantibodies specific for fetuin-A show utility as a prognostic indicator for prostate cancer patients prone to progress to metastatic disease.Prostate cancer accounts for nearly 27,000 deaths annually, with end-stage bone metastases representing a leading cause of morbidity and mortality (1). The introduction of diagnostic serum biomarkers into clinical practice, such as prostate-specific antigen (PSA), has greatly improved early detection of the disease (2). However, the lack of reliable methods for prediction of progression beyond early-stage disease and the paucity of treatment options for patients with bone metastasis results in many patients with localized disease subjected to aggressive treatment with sequelae including incontinence and impotence (3). Thus, identification of biomarkers to improve the accuracy of clinical assessment and stratification of patients needing conservative versus aggressive treatment would constitute a major advance in the management of this disease.Antibodies specific for tumor-associated antigens are detectable in the serum of cancer patients and have been studied as diagnostic and prognostic markers (4). Simultaneous quantification of autoantibodies and PSA was proposed as a new approach to improve diagnosis and prognosis of prostate cancer (5). After autoantibodies against Huntingtin interacting protein-1 were identified in prostate cancer patients, combining serum reactivity with PSA values led to a screening discrimination with 97% specificity (6).Using combinatorial peptide phage libraries, we developed a fingerprinting method based on targeting of circulating tumor-associated antibodies isolated from cancer patients (7, 8). Specific autoantibodies and their cognate tumor-associated antigens have been characterized, e.g., GRP78 for prostate cancer (9), HSP90 for ovarian cancer (8), ubiquilin 1 in lung cancer (10), and annexin XI-A in breast cancer (11). In addition, phage-based screening approaches have been developed for high-throughput profiling of immunogenic antigens for prostate cancer (12).In this study, we analyzed clinically annotated serum samples obtained from an index patient at time points from his initial diagnosis, presenting with androgen-dependent, localized prostate cancer, until his death with androgen-independent metastatic multifocal bone disease 7 y after the initial banked serum sample. A unique peptide, CTFAGSSC, was identified, for which autologous serum IgG showed increasing reactivity. We identified alpha-2–Heremans–Schmid glycoprotein (AHSG, also known as fetuin-A) as the putative protein corresponding to the peptide mimic. We demonstrated increased serum antibody reactivity to fetuin-A during progression of disease in the index patient, as well as strong serum reactivity in a large cohort of metastatic prostate cancer patients. Reactivity to fetuin-A, identified years before the onset of metastatic disease in the index patient, indicates that serum antibodies constitute potential predictive biomarkers for metastatic prostate cancer and might facilitate relevant early treatment decisions. 相似文献

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is an acquired coagulation disorder that may occur in a wide variety of clinical conditions. Suspicion of DIC should lead to a differential diagnosis that includes primary fibrinolysis and other bleeding diatheses such as thrombocytopenias of diverse etiology. Confirmation of the diagnosis of DIC should always prompt a search for an underlying medical disorder, including sepsis, severe trauma, solid and hematological malignancies, obstetrical complications, and vascular disorders. Here, we describe an unusual case of acute bleeding and DIC as the presenting manifestation of metastatic prostate cancer in a 60-year-old man. Treatment with a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist and a short course of an antiandrogen, together with supportive measures (i.e., clotting factors, heparin, and platelets), led to normalization of all coagulation parameters within 1 week, and to clinical improvement and decline in the serum level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA). We discuss the pathogenesis, differential diagnosis, and association of DIC with prostate cancer along with the management of this condition. 相似文献

conditions. Suspicion of DIC should lead to a differential diagnosis that includes primary fibrinolysis and other bleeding

OBJECTIVE: To identify what factors men consider important when choosing treatment for prostate cancer, and to assess why men reject
watchful waiting as a treatment option.
PARTICIPANTS: One hundred two consecutive men with newly diagnosed localized prostate cancer identified from hospital and community-based
urology practice groups.
MEASUREMENTS: Patients were asked open-ended questions about likes and dislikes of all treatments considered, how they chose their treatment,
and reasons for rejecting watchful waiting. The interviews were conducted in person, after the men had made a treatment decision
but before they received the treatment.
MAIN RESULTS: The most common reasons for liking a treatment were removal of tumor for radical prostatectomy (RP) (n=15), evidence for external beam radiation (EBRT) (n=6), and short duration of therapy for brachytherapy (seeds) (n=25). The most frequently cited dislikes were high risk of incontinence for RP (n=46), long duration of therapy for EBRT (n=29), and lack of evidence for seeds (n=16). Only 12 men chose watchful waiting. Fear of future consequences, cited by 64% (n=90) of men, was the most common reason to reject watchful waiting.
CONCLUSION: In discussing treatment options for localized prostate cancer, clinicians, including primary care providers, should recognize
that patients’ decisions are often based on specific beliefs regarding each therapy’s intrinsic characteristics, supporting
evidence, or pattern of complications. Even if patients do not recall a physician recommendation against watchful waiting,
this option may not be chosen because of fear of future consequences.
