Abstract

Prostate cancer is the most common gender-specific malignancy in men in the USA. Androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) is commonly used in the treatment of metastatic or recurrent prostate cancer. The use of ADT is increasing with the advocacy of adjuvant and neoadjuvant ADT for treating asymptomatic patients with locally advanced prostate cancer. Although the use of ADT has resulted in improved survival in men with advanced prostate cancer, ADT, with its resulting severe hypogonadism, causes profound metabolic side-effects. We comprehensively reviewed previous reports using Medline searches of English-language literature (1950 to the present), with the keywords 'hypogonadism', 'testosterone', 'androgen deprivation therapy', 'hormonal treatment', 'prostate cancer', 'diabetes', 'metabolic syndrome', and 'cardiovascular disease'. Men with prostate cancer who undergo long-term ADT are at greater risk of developing dyslipidaemia, insulin resistance, hyperglycaemia and metabolic syndrome. These metabolic and physiological changes are a direct result of the induced severe hypogonadism and might predispose patients to a greater risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. There is a need for prospective studies aimed and designed to i...Continue Reading

Cancer Metabolism

In order for cancer cells to maintain rapid, uncontrolled cell proliferation, they must acquire a source of energy. Cancer cells acquire metabolic energy from their surrounding environment and utilize the host cell nutrients to do so. Here is the latest research on cancer metabolism.

Cardiovascular Disease Pathophysiology

Cardiovascular disease involves several different processes that contribute to the pathological mechanism, including hyperglycemia, inflammation, atherosclerosis, hypertension and more. Vasculature stability plays a critical role in the development of the disease. Discover the latest research on cardiovascular disease pathophysiology here.
