[Serum antibody levels of cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex type I and adenovirus in patients with benign or malignant prostatic neoplasms]
Abstract
The serum antibody titers of cytomegalovirus (CMV), Herpes Simplex Type I (HSV-L) and Adenovirus (ADV) were detected by complement fixation technique in 40 patients with benign hyperplasia of prostate (BPH), and prostatic carcinoma. The control group consisted of healthy 20 military personnel. While, antibody levels of CMV and HSV-I was found to be elevated in BPH, the titers of ADV was elevated in protatic cancer patients. The verify the relation between virus-prostatic cancer relation further clinical and laboratory researchers are needed.
