Cancer of the prostate is one of the leading causes of cancer related deaths in men. An important role in the development of prostate cancer is played by androgens and androgen ablation is therefore currently used in cancer treatment. In the past, es

This study was undertaken to assess whether gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) in the form of evening primrose oil (EPO) could affect rat serum cytokines, interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (

The complex molecular and cellular processes of metastatic invasion as well as the anti-invasion possibilities are summarized. Invasion by neoplastic cells is a major obstacle to successful cancer therapy. Enzymes such as hyaluronidase, sialyltransfe

Many hypotheses have been proposed for renal stone formation. It has been argued that with infection-induced renal stones the hydrolysis of urea by bacterial urease increases urinary pH, with consequent stone formation. Unfortunately, this theory is

Conflicting reports have been published on the anti-tumour activities of acetylsalicylic acid in various cancers. Therefore, the effect of acetylsalicylic acid and its major metabolites has been studied on human prostatic carcinoma DU-145 cells. Inve

Malignant cells show increased urokinase (UK) activity and decreased peroxidation of essential fatty acids (EFA). In order to explore this phenomenon the effect of UK on the lipoxidase activity was spectrophotometrically investigated. Decreased lipox

Urokinase (UK) is an important protease enzyme in carcinogenesis, and is involved in the invasion and metastasis of cancer. Thus, regulation of UK activity is likely to be important in healthy cell metabolism. As it has been reported that a decrease

This study was undertaken to assess whether additions of different oils to the diets of male rats would affect the renal urokinase (UK) activity of healthy and pyelonephritic kidneys. Four groups of fatty acid diets were studied: fat-free, coconut oi

Renal stone formation is a complex multifactorial disease, and it is believed that the initial step in the pathogenesis of urolithiasis must be the precipitation of an organic matrix of mucoproteins followed by precipitation of minerals onto this mat
