Variation in the expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1) is associated with many human diseases, including several types of cancer. In particular, tumor cell overexpression of PAI-1 has been found to inhibit prostate cancer tumor growth, angiogenesis, and metastasis in mouse models. Normal host cell expression of PAI-1 is influenced by the 4G/5G insertion/deletion polymorphism in the promoter region of the PAI-1 gene. To evaluate the effect of PAI-1 expression on cancer development, we examined the association of the 4G/5G polymorphism in a sibling-based case-control study of prostate cancer.
