“…Both PSA and PAP are secreted from the glandular epithelial cells of the prostate gland. Of the different cell types of the prostate, only these cells are androgen-dependent and undergo apoptosis following androgen deprivation [14]. Tumor tissue from patients who are treated with surgical or medical castration will therefore contain fewer glandular epithelial cells than stromal or basal epithelial cells and thus less PSA and PAP.…”

“…Eine Androgenablation wird genutzt, um das Wachstum von Prostatakarzinomen zu inhibieren, was darauf hinweist, dass die Karzinomzellen zumindest initial und teilweise von Androgenen abhängig sind. Dennoch gibt es keinen Hinweis darauf, dass eine Erhöhung des Testosteronspiegels für eine Induktion von Prostatakarzinomen verantwortlich wäre [12].…”

“…Mehr als 90% des in die Prostata gelangenden Testosterons wird zu DHT konvertiert. Dies ist ein prostataspezifischer Vorgang, der weitgehend losgelöst von Serumspiegeln abläuft [12]. Bei kastrierten Cynomolgusaffen führt die supraphysiologische Dosierung von DHT nicht zu übernorma-lem Volumenzuwachs oder histologischen Veränderungen [21].…”

“…2) Hipertrofia e câncer prostático. Ainda que a próstata seja um órgão androgênio dependente, uma hipertrofia prostática benigna não é contra-indicação para RH, sendo que vários estudos falharam em observar um aumento prostático importante durante a mesma (6,71). Também não foi encontrada qualquer correlação entre hipertrofia de próstata e níveis plasmáticos e tissulares prostáticos de testosterona, DHT ou estradiol (72).…”
