The detection of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in serum can realize early diagnosis of prostate cancer and prevent the occurrence of prostate tumors, as well as offering guidance during the therapy. Herein, a Au-Se bonded nanoprobes that can specifically detect PSA was designed and constructed. The peptide chains that can be specifically cleaved by PSA were firstly functionalized with fluorescent dye and selenol, and then bind to the Au nanoparticles to produce the probe. The dye's fluorescence was quenched due to the FRET effect, but recovered by PSA's cutting. The nanoprobe can detect PSA in serum with extraordinary anti-interference ability against other proteins (detection range 1-40 ng/mL). This work provides a new method for the detection of PSA in serum, and has potential guiding significance for clinical PSA detection.

Relationship Between Pre- and Post-Orchidectomy Serum Dihydrotestosterone and Prostate Cancer Severity in a Cohort of Nigerian Patients.

Introduction: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the commonest urologic cancer worldwide and the leading cause of male cancer deaths in Nigeria. In Nigeria, orchidectomy remains the primary androgen deprivation therapy. Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is the active prostatic androgen, but its relationship with PCa severity has not been extensively studied in Africa.

Objective: To evaluate the correlation between response assessment measured by PET/CT with [F] F-fluorocholine (Choline PET/CT) and serum levels of PSA in patients with prostate cancer under antiandrogenic treatment.
Methodology: A retrospective study included patients with CRPC and CSPC treated with enzalutamide, abiraterone, or apalutamide between June 2018 and July 2021, who underwent baseline and a follow-up Choline PET/CT. The difference in maximum SUVmax (ΔSUV) between both studies and the PSA value before and at follow-up were recorded.

Introduction: microRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs and promising cancer biomarkers. Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing revolutionized prostate cancer (PCa) diagnostics and monitoring. However, PSA testing also contributes to PCa overdiagnoses that are detrimental on patients' health and may lead to overtreatment.

A sandwich electrochemical immunosensor was proposed for the sensitive detection of protective antigen ( PA) toxin based on cadmium sulphide nanocrystals (CdS NCs) and polypyrrole-gold nanoparticle-modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes (PPy-AuNPs/MWCNTs). Herein, PPy-AuNPs/MWCNTs were used as a biocompatible and conducting matrix for immobilization of rabbit anti-PA antibody [RαPA antibody, capturing antibody (Ab1)] and to facilitate excellent electrical conductivity. PPy-AuNPs/MWCNTs were synthesized through a one-step chemical reaction of pyrrole and Au on the surface of MWCNTs.

Background: Exploring the potential of as a diagnostic biomarker in prostate cancer.
Methods: Expression of the lncRNA was analyzed between normal and tumor samples in the GDC TCGA PRAD (Genomic Data Commons: The Cancer Genome Atlas Prostate Adenocarcinoma Collection) dataset. Disease progression-related clinicopathological parameters such as serum PSA level (ng/ml) and Gleason score were associated with the expression of using the same GDC TCGA PRAD dataset.
