Biological determinants of health disparities in prostate cancer

8 Feb 2013

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Prostate cancer mortality rates are highest among men of African ancestry in the United States and globally. Environmental exposures and ancestry-related factors may influence tumor biology and induce a more aggressive disease in this population. Here, we summarize the most recent advances in our understanding of race/ethnic differences in the tumor biology of prostate cancer with an emphasis...
