Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution of nitric oxide synthase-immunoreactive nerves and identification of the cellular targets of nitric oxide in guinea-pig and human urinary bladder by cGMP immunohistochemistry
TL;DR: The distribution of nerves with the potential to synthesize nitric oxide was examined within the urinary bladder and proximal urethra of humans and guinea-pigs, and cGMP-immunoreactive nerve terminals were identified, providing anatomical evidence thatNitric oxide may function as a neurotransmitter in the lower urinary tract.
Journal Article
Collocation of androgen receptor gene mutations in prostate cancer.
Grant Buchanan,Norman M. Greenberg,Howard I. Scher,Jonathan M. Harris,Villis R. Marshall,Wayne D. Tilley +5 more
TL;DR: Missense mutations in the AR gene identified in prostate cancer that collocate to discrete regions of the receptor contribute to altered androgen signaling and provide a potential mechanism to explain the reemergence of tumor growth during the course of hormone ablation therapies.
Journal Article
Elevated levels of versican but not decorin predict disease progression in early-stage prostate cancer.
Carmela Ricciardelli,Keiko Mayne,Pamela J. Sykes,Wendy A. Raymond,Kieran McCaul,Villis R. Marshall,David J. Horsfall +6 more
TL;DR: The measurement of prostatic concentrations of Versican, a molecule with reported anticellular adhesive properties, may be a useful marker of disease progression in patients with early-stage prostate cancer and that further study of versican in other patient cohorts is warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of urine, pyrophosphate, citrate, magnesium and glycosaminoglycans on the growth and aggregation of calcium oxalate crystals in vitro
TL;DR: It was concluded that chondroitin sulphate is responsible for the major portion of the inhibitory effect of urine on crystal aggregation, but that the effect on crystal growth is probably due to the additive or synergistic effects of a number of urinary constituents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of circulating microRNAs associated with human prostate cancer using a mouse model of disease.
Luke A. Selth,Scott L. Townley,Joanna L. Gillis,Aleksandra M. Ochnik,Krisna Murti,Robyn Jane Macfarlane,Kim N. Chi,Villis R. Marshall,Wayne D. Tilley,Lisa M. Butler +9 more
TL;DR: This study is the first to demonstrate that specific serum miRNAs are common between human prostate cancer and a mouse model of the disease, highlighting the potential of such models for the discovery of novel biomarkers.
