“…In most experiments, the changes of gene expression and protein synthesis caused by EMD or biomechanical loading were significant but not very pronounced. However, it has been shown that even two‐ or three‐fold changes in molecules, such as TGF‐β1, may result in phenotype and functional changes of cells 37‐39 . Whether the magnitude of effects observed in our study is sufficient to be clinically significant remains to be elucidated.…”

“…The TGF-β family includes TGF-β1, TGF-β2, and TGF-β3, which exhibit different and non-overlapping actions in vitro [5]. TGF-β1 and TGF-β2 mostly contribute to cancer progression by acting in both tumor cells and stromal cells [6], [7], and a loss of sensitivity to growth inhibition by TGF-β is thought to occur in most cancer cells. Meanwhile, cancer cells gain an advantage by selective reduction of the tumor-suppressive activity of TGF-β and augmentation of its oncogenic activity [8], [9].…”

“…While several studies have supported the hypothesis that obesity, as well as insulin resistance, is a novel risk factor for prostate cancer prognosis [7,8,10], no study has been carried out to associate all the aforementioned markers to biomarkers of prostate volume among apparently healthy men. This study attempted to determine whether there exists a relation between biomarkers of obesity and insulin resistance and known prostate pathology biomarkers among apparently cancer-free adult men.…”
