hormone therapyMany cases of Prostate Cancer are diagnosed every year for every country.
In the United States, 1 in 6 men diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime and UK about 1 in 12 men. Family history with prostate cancer more likely to developed it themselves for their next generation.

Patients with advanced prostate cancer are often treated with hormones, but when the tumors start growing again they have more and different blood vessels.
Recent diagnose, many of tumor grow very slowly and have no symptoms, but prostate cancer can also be more aggressive and spread to the lymph nodes and bones.

A research from Sahlgrenska Academy of Gothenburg University, Sweden, showed, when prostategiven hormone therapy due spread of prostate cancer, this reduces the production of the male sex hormone and the tumor shrinks.

Heléne Gustavsson, molecular biologist said, “the problem is that the effect is transient. Sooner or later the tumor will develop resistance to the hormone treatment and then the cancer will continue to grow, often as secondary tumors in the bones.”

Tumors have to make new blood vessels if they are to grow and spread in the body.
It relapsed after a patient has been given hormone therapy contain more blood vessels.
The blood vessels often also look different to how they looked during the earlier stages of the disease.

Another interesting finding is that levels of protein known as ADAMTS1 are lower in these aggressive tumors. ADAMTS1 is known to inhibit the growth of blood vessels.
Low levels of the protein in the tumors are associated with more blood vessels and a greater spread of the cancer.

prostate remediesGustavsson said, “If we can prevent the tumor from making new blood vessels, we can also prevent the cancer from spreading. Now that we have a better understanding of how the formation of blood vessels is controlled in this stage of prostate cancer.”

In other words, if the cancer is diagnosed early, the entire prostate gland is often removed.

The research will now assess how these changes affect the function of the blood vessels and their sensitivity to different treatments.

For early preventing prostate cancer, food containing lycopene such as tomatoes may help to protect against prostate cancer. Also, supplement with selenium inside in the diet may help reducing the risk of prostate cancer.

High animal fat including dairy product that high intake of calcium in dairy foods, low fresh fruit and vegetables could increase the risk to developing prostate cancer.
