Androgens and the molecular epidemiology of prostate cancer.

Current opinion in endocrinology, diabetes, and obesity - 1 Jun 2008

Chu Lisa W, Reichardt Juergen Kv, Hsing Ann W

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Despite clinical and experimental evidence that show androgens are important in prostate carcinogenesis, epidemiologic studies of serum androgens have been inconclusive. In this review, we summarize the current state of the literature and provide insights and direction for epidemiologic research on androgens and prostate cancer. RECENT FINDINGS: To date, data on serum androgens in prostate...
