Title: Measurement of prostatic acid phosphatase in various cell lines. Author: Foti AG, Herschman H, Cooper JF. Journal: Natl Cancer Inst Monogr; 1978 Dec; (49):55-6. PubMed ID: 571048. Abstract: In the last few years, we have developed a radioimmunoassay for the measurement of human prostatic acid phosphatase. This method, which requires samples of the patient's serum, has been proved to be more accurate than the conventional enzymatic assay for the detection of early stages of carcinoma of the prostate. We used the enzymatic assay and radioimmunoassay for the quantitation of prostatic acid phosphatase in cultured prostatic cell lines. We were unable to show any difference in the concentration of prostatic acid phosphatase between prostatic and any other established cell lines.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
