ABSTRACT
Objective To study the relationship between serum insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-Ⅰ) levels and prostatic cancer. Methods The levels of IGF-Ⅰwas measured with immunoradiometric assay(IRMA) in 37 cases of prostatic cancer,35 cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and in 20 healthy subjects as controls.The serum IGF-I levels were compared to the clinical and pathological grading of the prostatic cancer.8 cases of prostatic cancer after operation have been followed up. Results The mean levels of serum IGF-I in prostatic cancer (325.6?100.8 ng/ml) were significantly higher than those in BPH (201.6?53.8 ng/ml) and healthy subjects (179.0?57.2 ng/ml) (P0.05).Statistical difference was noted before ( 315.8?87.0 ng/ml) and after (224.8? 88.4 ng/ml) PCa operation(P0.05). Conclusions The levels of serum IGF-I may be a new marker to prognose and for early diagnosis of PCa in high risk population.
