Estrone sulfate (E1S), a prognosis marker for tumor aggressiveness in prostate cancer (PCa).
Seeking insight into the possible role of estrogens in prostate cancer (PCa) evolution, we assayed serum E2, estrone (E1), and estrone sulfate (E1S) in 349 PCa and 100 benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patients, and in 208 control subjects in the same age range (50-74 years). E1 (pmol/L+/-S.D.) and E1S (nmol/L+/-S.D.) in the PCa and BPH patients (respectively 126.1+/-66.1 and 2.82+/-1.78, and 127.8+/-56.4 and 2.78+/-2.12) were significantly higher than in the controls (113.8+/-47.6 and 2.11+/-0.96). E2 was not significantly different among the PCa, BPH, and control groups. These assays were also carried out in PCa patients after partition by prognosis (PSA, Gleason score (GS), histological stage, and surgical margins (SM)). Significantly higher E1S levels were found in PCa with: PSA>10 ng/L (3.05+/-1.92) versus PSA Topics: Adult; Aged; Androgens; Biomarkers, Tumor; Blood Chemical Analysis; Case-Control Studies; Estradiol; Estrone; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Prognosis; Prostatic Hyperplasia; Prostatic Neoplasms; Reference Values | 2008 |
