Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is an important factor in prostate cancer (PCA) genesis and disease progression. Given PCA's strong genetic component, we evaluated the possibility that variation in genes involved in DHT metabolism influence PCA risk. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We investigated copy n...
