Abstract
Background: Since prostate cancer (PCa) risk is associated with ethnicity, it is crucial to investigate ethno-geographic variations in PCa studies. Periprostatic adipose tissue (PPAT) has been involved in cancer aggressiveness through the release of lipids and inflammatory mediators, and we previously reported a different lipid composition of PPAT according to the ethno-geographic origin. We aimed to analyze the expression of a panel of adipokines in PPAT from African-Caribbean and Caucasian patients, in correlation with features of PCa aggressiveness and lipid composition.
Methods: Adipokines expression was analyzed by RTqPCR in PPAT from 110 Caucasians and 50 African-Caribbeans patients, in parallel with the characterization of fatty acids and cholesterol content.
Results: The most expressed cytokines were IL10, leptin and IL8. The expression of most adipokines was higher in PPAT from Caucasians compared to African-Caribbean patients. IL6 was associated with features of PCa aggressiveness in Caucasians, with a difference close to significance. Most cytokines were associated with the lipid composition of PPAT, mainly with arachidonic acid and free cholesterol content.
Conclusions: The differential cytokines expression in PPAT from African-Caribbean patients compared to Caucasians probably reflects a different inflammatory status. The close relationship between adipokines expression and lipid composition highlights the importance of diet and lipid metabolism in adipose tissue inflammation.
期刊介绍:
Urologic Oncology: Seminars and Original Investigations is the official journal of the Society of Urologic Oncology. The journal publishes practical, timely, and relevant clinical and basic science research articles which address any aspect of urologic oncology. Each issue comprises original research, news and topics, survey articles providing short commentaries on other important articles in the urologic oncology literature, and reviews including an in-depth Seminar examining a specific clinical dilemma. The journal periodically publishes supplement issues devoted to areas of current interest to the urologic oncology community. Articles published are of interest to researchers and the clinicians involved in the practice of urologic oncology including urologists, oncologists, and radiologists.
