11. Human Glandular Kallikrein 2
Sammanfattning : Human glandular kallikrein 2 (hK2) is a serine protease, which is predominantly expressed by the prostate gland and found in seminal plasma at mean levels of 6 mg/ml. It has 79% amino acid sequence identity with prostate-specific antigen (PSA or hK3). LÄS MER
12. Studies on a serine peptidase inhibitor locus on human chromosome 20 Characterization of novel genes encoding proteins with WFDC and kunitz domains
Sammanfattning : An unlimited number of proteolytic reactions are carried out by enzymes in biological systems. These enzymes are a necessity of life, but they can also be dangerous if they are not controlled. LÄS MER
13. Hormonal Regulation of the Human CYP27A1 and CYP7B1 Genes
Sammanfattning : CYP27A1 and CYP7B1 are widely expressed in various human tissues and are two key enzymes involved in the pathways for conversion of cholesterol to bile acids. Also, CYP27A1 is involved in bioactivation of vitamin D3 and CYP7B1 plays a role in 7alpha-hydroxylation of dehydroepiandrosterone and other steroids. LÄS MER
14. Expression and function of the protein tyrosine phosphatases SHP-1 and SHP-2 in prostate cancer
Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer is one of the most frequent cancers in males in Western countries. Radical prostatectomy serves as the first line of treatment for patients with localised prostate cancer. However, in many cases the cancer will recur. It is currently difficult to identify those patients at a high risk of tumour recurrence. LÄS MER
15. Role of Wnt5a in Prostate Cancer
Sammanfattning : Wnt5a is a non-canonical secreted glycoprotein of the Wnt family that plays important roles in organ development and tissue orientation. Previous studies have reported that Wnt5a was upregulated at both mRNA and protein levels in prostate cancer, but information regarding its role in predicting clinical outcome in patients after radical prostatectomy is limited.
