Met160Val polymorphism in the TRMPSS2 gene and risk of prostate cancer in a population-based case-control study.

The Prostate - 1 Jun 2004

Lubieniecka Joanna M, Cheteri Mahesh Keitheri, Stanford Janet L, Ostrander Elaine A

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Serine proteases play an important role in prostate cancer (PCa) invasion through the degradation of extracellular matrix proteins and interaction with growth modulating factors. The transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) gene encodes a type II transmembrane protein which, due to i...
