Genetic variation in the toll-like receptor gene cluster (TLR10-TLR1-TLR6) and prostate cancer risk.
29 Nov 2008 
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are key players in the innate immune system and initiate the inflammatory response to foreign pathogens such as bacteria, fungi and viruses. The proposed role of chronic inflammation in prostate carcinogenesis has ... Read more...
29 Nov 2008 Fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4) is a member of a family of transmembrane receptors with ligand-induced tyrosine kinase activity. The Glycine (Gly) to Arginine (Arg) polymorphism at codon 388 (Gly388Arg), which encodes an amino acid in ... Read more...
29 Nov 2008 INTRODUCTION: The RNASEL and HPC2/ELAC2 genes have been implicated in hereditary prostate cancer. Further assessment of the role of these genes in sporadic prostate cancer in African American men (AAM) is warranted. METHODS: Genotyping of ... Read more...
