The findings suggest that the body’s ability to recognize and respond to abnormal cells may play an important role in the early development of prostate cancer and could point to new approaches for preventing the disease.
The study, published in Nature Communications, is the largest and most comprehensive prospective and genetic analysis of circulating immune and inflammation-related proteins in relation to prostate cancer risk. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in U.K...
