PurposeThe combined external beam- and high-dose rate brachytherapy (HDR-BT) of localized prostate cancer was introduced at Kiel University in 1986. The aim of this intermediate analysis was to judge the Kiel method of localized prostate cancer radiation treatment after ten years experience.Patients and MethodsIn the past ten years 174 patients wit...

BackgroundThe ability to eradicate localized prostate cancer is dependent upon the radiation dose which can be delivered to the prostate. This dose is often limited by the tolerance of normal organs (rectum, bladder). Conformal beam therapy takes advantage of the unique depth dose characteristics of heavy charged particles (the Bragg Peak) to escal...

Androgens are pivotal regulators of prostate cell growth, differentiation and function, and their actions are believed to be involved in prostate cancer development. The androgen-signaling pathway in the prostate gland is therefore one of the possible sites of intervention in prostate cancer prevention efforts. The central element of androgen signa...

Adsorption
A general purpose package for simulation of fixed-bed and cyclic adsorption processes (PSA/VSA and TSA) has been developed. The package allows various models options depending on combinations of conservation equations: Equilibrium model, Macropore or Micropore model (LDF model), Bidisperse model (double LDF model). The fluid flow follows Ergun's eq...

Thalidomide has been shown to have species- and metabolic-dependent antiangiogenic activity in vitro and in vivo, suggesting its potential in treating human angiogenesis-dependent pathologies such as solid tumors. Based on promising preclinical studies, thalidomide has entered phase II clinical trials for prostate, brain, breast cancer, and Kaposi'...

Twelve research groups participated in the ISOBM TD-3 Workshop in which the reactivity and specificity of 83 antibodies against prostate-specific antigen (PSA) were investigated. Using a variety of techniques including cross-inhibition assays, Western blotting, BIAcore, immunoradiometric assays and immunohistochemistry, the antibodies were categori...

The relative affinities of a panel of antibodies submitted to the ISOBM TD-3 PSA Workshop were determined by direct-binding ELISA. The Workshop antibodies were also tested for reactivity with the prostate-specific antigen α1-antichymotrypsin complex (PSA-ACT) and cross-reactivity with porcine pancreatic kallikrein. There was a wide range of affinit...

Analytical Biochemistry
When isolating proteins from complex biological material by immunosorption, the nonspecific binding and elution of other proteins present in much larger concentrations than the target protein are often a general problem, preventing the isolation of a pure protein. To improve this situation we have developed a new indirect immunosorption method, whi...

We monitored both chromogranin A (CgA) and neuron specific enolase (NSE) in serial serum specimens from 14 patients with prostate cancer (CAP patients) showing resistance to hormonal treatment. Elevated serum CgA was detected in 10 out of these 14 patients (71%) during treatment, and an early appearance of elevated serum CgA was found in 6 of 14 (4...
