Abstract
Survivin is over expressed in BPH and it correlates with BPH parameters. Increases in proliferation and inhibition of apoptosis have a role in BPH.
Keywords
Medicine
OncogeneSurvivin, versatile modulation of cell division and apoptosis in cancer
896 Citations2003Dario C. Altieri
Current evidence and emerging concepts on the multifaceted functions of survivin in cell death and cell division are lined up to line up with how this pathway is being pursued for novel cancer therapeutic strategies.
EndocrinologyActivation of Programmed Cell Death in the Rat Ventral Prostate after Castration*
730 Citations1988Natasha Kyprianou, John T. Isaacs
Flow cytometric analysis of nuclear DNA content demonstrated that each day after castration, a subpopulation of androgen-dependent cells in rat ventral prostate fragmented all of their genomic DNA, as opposed to the whole population of cells fragmenting an increasing portion of their DNA daily.

411 Citations1993Michael J. Barry, Abraham T.�K. Cockett +4 more
At baseline, symptom severity was not correlated with uroflowmetry, post-void residual, prostate size and degree of bladder trabeculation, but was much more strongly related to overall health status than the other measures.
The Journal of UrologyThe Relative Proportion of Stromal and Epithelial Hyperplasia is Related to the Development of Symptomatic Benign Prostate Hyperplasia
295 Citations1992Ellen Shapiro, Michael J. Becich +2 more
The study suggests that the histological composition of the prostate adenoma is related to the development of symptomatic BPH.
Human PathologyApoptotic versus proliferative activities in human benign prostatic hyperplasia
244 Citations1996Natasha Kyprianou, Huacheng Tu +1 more
A potential involvement of enhanced expression of this antiapoptosis protein in deregulation of the normal apoptotic cell death mechanisms in the human prostate is suggested, thus resulting in a growth imbalance in favor of cell proliferation that might ultimately promote prostatic hyperplasia.
PubMedTherapeutic targeting of the survivin pathway in cancer: initiation of mitochondrial apoptosis and suppression of tumor-associated angiogenesis.
213 Citations2003Olivier Blanc‐Brude, Mehdi Mesri +4 more
Survivin functions as a novel upstream regulator of mitochondrial-dependent apoptosis, and molecular targeting of this pathway results in anticancer activity via a dual mechanism of induction of tumor cell apoptosis and suppression of angiogenesis.
PubMedLoss of caspase-1 and caspase-3 protein expression in human prostate cancer.

CancerSurvivin expression is associated with features of biologically aggressive prostate carcinoma
175 Citations2004Shahrokh F. Shariat, Yair Lotan +5 more
The objectives of the current study were to compare the expression patterns of survivin in normal prostate, primary prostate carcinoma, and lymph node tissues involved with prostate cancer and to determine whether the expression of Survivin is associated with prostate carcinomas characteristics and progression.
The Journal of UrologyINDUCTION OF PROSTATE APOPTOSIS BY DOXAZOSIN IN BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA
147 Citations1998Natasha Kyprianou, Juan P. Litvak +3 more
Findings implicate the induction of prostate apoptosis by doxazosin as a potential molecular mechanism underlying the acute and chronic therapeutic responses of BPH to alpha1 blockade.

A new image analyzer-assisted immunohistochemical quantitation method, using fluorescence in situ hybridization assay (FISH) as the standard, which represents a substantial improvement over the manual method for objective evaluation of the HER-2/neu status.
The ProstateInteraction of epidermal growth factor and transforming growth factor beta in human prostatic epithelial cells in culture
76 Citations1992Debra M. Sutkowski, Chau‐Jye Fong +5 more
The results demonstrated an interaction between EGF and TGF‐β in proliferation and cell death in human prostatic epithelia in culture, which was greatly diminished when EGF was deleted from the medium or when T GF‐β was added in the presence of EGF.
The Journal of UrologyCell Kinetic in Epithelium and Stroma of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
76 Citations1997Siegfried Claus, R. Berges +2 more
Results indicate stromal growth due to cell proliferation in the absence of cell death may explain the continuous increase of BPH volume in aging men.
British Journal of UrologyZonal variation of apoptosis and proliferation in the normal prostate and in benign prostatic hyperplasia
74 Citations1998Marc Colombel, Vacherot +6 more
BPH may result from both an increase of proliferation within the basal compartment and a failure of apoptosis to counterbalance basal cell proliferation, and increased expression of bcl-2 may participate in this process by blocking apoptosis.
The ProstateInduction of apoptosis and inhibition of cell proliferation by the lipido-sterolic extract ofSerenoa repens (LSESr, Permixon�) in benign prostatic hyperplasia
72 Citations2000Francis Vacherot, Mohamed Azzouz +7 more
The mechanism by which prostate volume increases during the development of BPH and the effect of LSESr (Permixon®), a phytotherapeutic agent, are investigated.
The Journal of UrologyResistance to Apoptosis and Up Regulation of Bcl-2 In Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia After Androgen Deprivation
53 Citations1997Marina Cardillo, Guy Berchem +8 more
Benign prostatic hyperplasia demonstrated increased staining for Bcl-2 after androgen deprivation that may render hyperplastic epithelium relatively resistant to apoptosis induced acutely by androgen withdrawal.
American Journal of Obstetrics and GynecologyP16 as a molecular biomarker of cervical adenocarcinoma
52 Citations2004John O. Schorge, Jayanthi Lea +5 more
P16 is a putative molecular biomarker of cervical adenocarcinoma that appears to primarily reflect HPV-induced cell cycle dysregulation.

51 Citations2004Shahrokh F. Shariat, Andres Menesses-Diaz +4 more
The results showed that abnormal expression of TGF-beta1 and its receptors is common in prostate cancer, and TGFbeta-RI expression and surgical margin status were independently associated with biochemical progression.
HistopathologyUsefulness of MIB1 monoclonal antibody in assessing the proliferative index in human bladder carcinoma: comparison with Ki-67 antibody
42 Citations1994Catherine Mazerolles, P. RISHMANN +7 more
MIB1 antibody staining after microwave oven heating of tissue sections is a simple technique for assessing the proliferative fraction of bladder tumours on fixed material and should determine whether the proliferation index in bladder carcinoma has the same prognostic value as demonstrated in other types of neoplasms.
