Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1/Ref‐1) overexpression is an independent prognostic marker in prostate cancer without TMPRSS2:ERG fusion
3 May 2017
Abstract excerpt
Polymorphisms of the base excision repair gene APE1 may be associated with an increased risk for developing prostate cancer. In other cancer types, altered APE1 protein expression is a candidate prognostic marker. Using immunohistochemistry, we thus analyzed APE1 expression in 9763 prostate cancers in a tissue microarray (TMA) with attached clinical and molecular data. The comparison with normal prostate tissue...
