Regional Cell Proliferation in Microdissected Human Prostate Specimens after Heavy Water Labeling <i>In Vivo</i>: Correlation with Prostate Epithelial Cells Isolated from Seminal Fluid

Abstract

Prostate cell proliferation can be measured in vivo from microdissected histopathology sections or noninvasively from seminal fluid where the latter reflects the most proliferative region of the gland. This approach may allow monitoring of progression in men with low-risk prostate cancer.
