“…However, there is a significant cancer heterogeneity of prostate cancer among different races, especially between the Caucasians and Asians [9]. As the low prevalence of TMPRSS2-ERG gene fusions has been confirmed in Asian patients, including those in China, Japan, Korea, and India, it would hinder the utility of TMPRSS2-ERG gene fusions in diagnosing prostate cancer in the Asian population.…”

“…Perhaps differences in sexual practices, carcinogen exposure, or hormonal environment may impact the clinical behavior of prostate cancers in US-AIP men. Recent studies have investigated the anti-inflammatory or biologic effects of omega-3 fatty acids (Fradet et al, 2009;Sugimoto et al, 2012), TMPRSS2-ETS gene fusions (Narod et al, 2008), and XML RNA tumor virus latency (Dong et al, 2007;Klein et al, 2008), in US men with prostate cancer. It might be useful to know if any of these are different in US-AIP men with prostate cancer.…”
