DNA Sequencing for Prostate Cancer?

[Tito]

Hey all,

My friend's dad was unfortunately just diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer. He was wondering...

Have you seen any articles floating around the DIY network that discuss DNA sequencing and its impact on prostate cancer treatments?  I have seen lots of discussion of this but nothing with any weight.

Thanks for any suggestions or tips!

Not sure if this mentions sequencing, as I can't get the full article

Hi Tito,

why don´t you do a search on the pubmed database, where all scientific studies are published.
I just did a quick search on the genetics of prostate cancer and found this for example

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0032642/

You should do a more intense search on this database to get some more information.

All the best!

Mike
