Aneuploidy of glandular epithelial cells in histologically normal prostate glands
Abstract
The percentage of aneuploidy in normal prostate glands from subjects 13-38 years old and 45-66 years old ranged from 0-78% and 0-63%, respectively. In contrast to adults, aneuploidy was absent in fetal and postnatal prostates. It is concluded that aneuploidy is a fundamental attribute of histologically normal adult prostate glands.
