Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the association between the TMPRSS2 Met160Val polymorphism and the risk of prostate cancer in Japanese men. METHODS: Genomic DNA samples from 518 Japanese sporadic prostate cancer patients, 433 controls and 154 Japanese men who were diagnosed as having latent prostate cancer based on autopsy results were genotyped for the TMPRSS2 Met160Val polymorphism using a TaqMan assay. Logistic...
