Elevated hyaluronan and hyaluronan-mediated motility receptor associated with biochemical failure
March 25, 2014 in Publications, Prostate
Dr. Stephen Schmechel collaborated with Dr. James McCarthy at the University of Minnesota to analyze hyaluronan pathway related members in intermediate-grade prostate cancer biospecimens. They analyzed prostate cancer tissue microarrays using NWBioSpecimen resources (including the Pathology Digital Imaging Core Facility services) and identified HA and HMMR as molecules that are significantly associated with biochemical failure in intermediate-grade prostate tumors.
Their work has been published in the journal Cancer.
