Abstract 5099: Adiponectin inhibits oxidative stress in prostate cancer cells
Abstract
Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Emerging data suggest that obesity increases the risk of aggressive prostate cancer (PC) but the mechanisms underlying this relationship remain to be fully elucidated. Adiponectin, an adipocyte-specific hormone, circulates at relatively high levels in healthy human but its levels are reduced in obesity. Case control studies have documented an association between lower adiponectin blood …
