Massive prostatic carcinoma in negroes
British Journal of Urology
|June 1, 1983
Abstract:
Three cases of massive carcinoma of the prostate in negroes are presented. Investigation and treatment were carried out along conventional lines. There was a very good response to treatment initially in that all tumours shrank and became impalpable. Two patients died of recurrent carcinoma at 1 and 2 3/4 years respectively. The third has widespread metastases at present controlled by chemotherapy. The possible differences in the behaviour of prostatic carcinoma in negroes are discussed.

The Ras Gene
The Ras-gene-encoded proteins are regulators of signaling pathways controlling cell proliferation, differentiation, or cell survival. The Ras-gene family in humans constitutes three primary members—the HRas, NRas, and KRas. These genes code for four functionally distinct yet closely related proteins—the HRas, NRas, KRas4A, and KRas4B. The involvement of mutant Ras genes in human cancer was first discovered in 1982 and is among the most common causes of human tumorigenesis.

Disorders of the Male Reproductive System
Men's health issues are increasingly recognized as significant, with several conditions posing common threats. Among these, testicular cancer is especially prevalent in younger men, particularly those aged 20 to 35 years. The disease often manifests as a painless mass in the testicles, sometimes accompanied by a sensation of heaviness or a dull ache.
