General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | in mice bearing xenograft tumors, 68% of the immunoreactive PSA occurrs in complex. After 18 h most of PSA added to mouse and human serum is also complexed: and when added to mouse serum, over 70% of PSA forms complexes that comprises alpha2-macroglobulin and members of the alpha1-antitrypsin family. The complex formation of PSA produced by xenograft tumor models in mice is similar to that of human prostate tumors with respect to the complexation of PSA. Circulating levels of PSA in mice bearing LNCaP and 22RV1 xenograft tumors correlate with tumor volume: concentration of total and free PSA decreases rapidly as a result of complex formation | Homo sapiens |
