Leukocyte telomere length is associated with aggressive prostate cancer in localized prostate cancer patients.
Interesting new study from MD Anderson, below [1]. Leukocytes are white blood cells - important players in the immune response. Telomeres are protective caps at the ends of chromosomes. They are mostly comprised of repeating sequences. When cells divide, there is a loss of one or more of the sequences

Is the risk of BCR 50% for post RP guys with a uPSA of 0.01 as this study suggests?
figure summarizes this https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4527538/figure/F1/ from the uPSA 0.03 BCR Kang study https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25463990 PURPOSE: Integrating ultrasensitive prostate specific antigen with surveillance in patients at high risk after radical prostatectomy

Does this study which predicts BCR for all post RP guys with a uPSA of 0.03 or higher apply to intermediate and low-risk RP guys also?
does this apply to low and intermediate-risk post-RP guys? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25463990 "PURPOSE: Integrating ultrasensitive prostate specific antigen with surveillance in patients at high risk after radical prostatectomy potentially optimizes treatment by correctly identifying recurrence

Berberine
There has been discussion about berberine, but I didn't see this 2015 study posted, so I thought I'd share: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4278877/ Abstract Background: Over 70% of cancer metastasis from prostate cancer develops bone metastases that are not sensitive to hormonal therapy
