Phosphatase and Tensin Gene Associated with Features of Aggressive Prostate Cancer

Introduction The current study examined the clinical impacts of phosphatase and tensin (PTEN) expression in prostate cancer (PCa) using immunohistochemistry. Methods 50 patients with mean age of 66.4±7.3 years who had undergone prostatectomy surgery with the diagnosis of PCa, were enrolled in the...

Methods 50 patients with mean age of 66.4±7.3 years who had undergone prostatectomy surgery with the diagnosis of PCa, were enrolled in the study. We collected 50 paraffin blocks from the malignant part and 50 paraffin blocks from the healthy part of each patient’s prostate.

For patients negative for PTEN, the odds ratio of the higher stage, perivascular invasion, perineural invasion, marginal involvement, and extraprostatic extension in comparison to patients positive for PTEN were estimated 7.5 (95%CI: 2.01,27.86), (95%CI: 1.65-25.57), 7.8 (95%CI:1.54-40.09), 9.78 (95%CI:2.33-41.08), and 4.84 (95%CI:1.07-21.84), respectively. Concerning biochemical recurrence, ORs was calculated 0.30 (95%CI:0.09-1.02) for PTEN positive patients compare to PTEN negative patients.
