Objective: To compare the negative predictive value (NPV) of multiparametric MRI for Gleason score (GS) ≥ 3+4 cancer and evaluate predictors of these tumors in men with suspected disease and under active surveillance (AS).
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study included 38 men with suspected prostate cancer and 38 under AS with scans assigned PI-RADS v2 scores 1 or 2 between May 2016 and September 2017. Biopsy results were no cancer, GS = 3+3, or GS ≥ 3+4.
Regulated secretion depends upon a highly coordinated series of protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions. Two phosphoinositides, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate, are important for the ATP-dependent priming of the secretory apparatus prior to Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis. Mechanisms that control phosphoinositide levels are likely to play an important role in priming fine tuning.
