pubmed:abstractText |
Prostate cancer is an increasingly common disease for which there are few well-established risk factors. Family history data suggest a genetic component; however, the majority of prostate cancer cases cannot be explained by a single-gene model. Prostate cell division is influenced by two steroid hormones, testosterone and vitamin D, the action of each being mediated by its respective receptor. The genes for the two receptors are candidates in a multigenic model for prostate cancer susceptibility.
