Heritability of Prostate-Specific Antigen and Relationship with Zonal Prostate Volumes in Aging Twins*

1 Mar 2000

Abstract excerpt

Both benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) have been shown to increase with age and with prostate volume in men, but the influence of heredity on these relationships is not completely understood. This study has two aims: 1) to investigate the inter-relationships of age, PSA, and various zonal measurements in the prostate; and 2) to assess the impact of heritable influences on total PSA....
