Abstract excerpt

Recent studies have provided epidemiological evidence in support of a possible prostate cancer susceptibility locus on the X chromosome. The androgen receptor (AR) gene, located at Xq11-12, has been implicated as a risk factor for the development of prostate cancer. To examine the potential role of the AR locus in prostate cancer susceptibility, the AR CAG repeat length was measured in 270 Caucasian men with...
