    Identification of potential diagnostic markers of prostate cancer and prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia using cDNA microarray

    The identification of novel genes or groups of genes expressed in prostate cancer may allow earlier diagnosis or more accurate staging of the disease. We describe the assembly and use of a 1877-member microarr...
