Abstract
Caveolin-1(cav-1) is overexpressed in prostate cancer (PC) and is associated with progression of the disease. We investigated the effects of CAV1-T29107A and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) G894T polymorphisms on the serum levels of testosterone, NO and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in patients with PC. We genotyped cav-1 and eNOS genes in 112 PC patients and 150 healthy controls by PCR-RFLP. Serum levels of NO 2 - and NO 3 - were measured using spectrophotometry, and serum levels of testosterone and PSA were measured by ELISA. The frequencies of CAV1 genotypes A/T vs. A/A according to the dominant model AT + TT vs. AA genotype and T allele were significantly higher in PC patients in comparison with the control group and considerably increased the risk of disease by 2.19-, 1.44- and 1.6-fold, respectively. AT + TT genotypes were associated significantly with the increased risk of PC in those with smoking or diabetes by 3.08-fold (P = .004). Individuals carrying concurrently the T allele of CAV1 A29107T and the T allele of eNOS G894T genes had a significantly increased risk of PC by 2.52-fold (P = .009). We did not find any significant relationship between eNOS G894T genotypes and alleles with susceptibility to PC. Our results highlighted the significance of CAV1-T29107A SNP but not (eNOS) G894T in the susceptibility to PC in our the population that we have studied.

Abstract
Caveolae are specialised and dynamic plasma membrane subdomains, involved in many cellular functions including endocytosis, signal transduction, mechanosensing and lipid storage, trafficking, and metabolism. Two protein families are indispensable for caveola formation and function, namely caveolins and cavins. Mutations of genes encoding these caveolar proteins cause serious pathological conditions such as cardiomyopathies, skeletal muscle diseases, and lipodystrophies. Deregulation of caveola-forming protein expression is associated with many types of cancers including prostate cancer. The distinct function of secretion of the prostatic fluid, and the unique metabolic phenotype of prostate cells relying on lipid metabolism as a main bioenergetic pathway further suggest a significant role of caveolae and caveolar proteins in prostate malignancy. Accumulating in vitro, in vivo, and clinical evidence showed the association of caveolin-1 with prostate cancer grade, stage, metastasis, and drug resistance. In contrast, cavin-1 was found to exhibit tumour suppressive roles. Studies on prostate cancer were the first to show the distinct function of the caveolar proteins depending on their localisation within the caveolar compartment or as cytoplasmic or secreted proteins. In this review, we summarise the roles of caveola-forming proteins in prostate cancer and the potential of exploiting them as therapeutic targets or biological markers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of caveolin-1 (CAV1) genetic variants (C239A (rs1997623), G14713A (rs3807987), G21985A (rs12672038), T29107A (rs7804372)) with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) susceptibility. METHODS A total of 427 patients with ESCC and 427 healthy controls were genotyped using the polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. RESULTS There were significant differences between patients and controls in distributions of their genotypes and allelic frequencies in G14713A and T29107A polymorphisms. Furthermore, haplotype analysis revealed that haplotypes CAAT and CAGT were associated with high risk for ESCC, while haplotype CGGA was protective against ESCC. Stratified analysis showed the associations between the SNPs (G14713A and T29107A) and ESCC risk were noteworthy among female patients and patients who never smoke or drank alcohol. CONCLUSIONS Genetic polymorphisms of CAV1 G14713A and T29107A might affect an individual's susceptibility in developing ESCC, making them efficient potential genetic biomarkers for early detection of ESCC.

Abstract
The expression of caveola-forming proteins is dysregulated in prostate cancer. Caveolae are flask-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane that have roles in membrane trafficking and cell signalling. Members of two families of proteins--caveolins and cavins--are known to be required for the formation and functions of caveolae. Caveolin-1, the major structural protein of caveolae, is overexpresssed in prostate cancer and has been demonstrated to be involved in prostate cancer angiogenesis, growth and metastasis. Polymerase I and transcript release factor (PTRF) is the only cavin family member necessary for caveola formation. When exogenously expressed in prostate cancer cells, PTRF reduces aggressive potential, probably via both caveola-mediated and caveola-independent mechanisms. In addition, stromal PTRF expression decreases with progression of the disease. Evaluation of caveolin-1 antibodies in the clinical setting is underway and it is hoped that future studies will reveal the mechanisms of PTRF action, allowing its targeting for therapeutic purposes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Caveolin-1, the hallmark protein of caveolae, is highly expressed within the lung in the epithelium, endothelium, and in immune cells. In addition to its classical roles in cholesterol metabolism and endocytosis, caveolin-1 has also been shown to be important in inflammatory signaling pathways. In particular, caveolin-1 is known to associate with the nitric oxide synthase enzymes, downregulating their activity. Endotoxins, which are are composed mainly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), are found ubiquitously in the environment and can lead to the development of airway inflammation and increased airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR). METHODS We compared the acute responses of wild-type and caveolin-1 deficient mice after LPS aerosol, a well-accepted mode of endotoxin exposure, to investigate the role of caveolin-1 in the development of environmental lung injury. RESULTS Although the caveolin-1 deficient mice had greater lung inflammatory indices compared to wild-type mice, they exhibited reduced AHR following LPS exposure. The uncoupling of inflammation and AHR led us to investigate the role of caveolin-1 in the production of nitric oxide, which is known to act as a bronchodilator. The absence of caveolin-1 resulted in increased nitrite levels in the lavage fluid in both sham and LPS treated mice. Additionally, inducible nitric oxide synthase expression was increased in the lung tissue of caveolin-1 deficient mice following LPS exposure and administration of the potent and specific inhibitor 1400W increased AHR to levels comparable to wild-type mice. CONCLUSIONS We attribute the relative airway hyporesponsiveness in the caveolin-1 deficient mice after LPS exposure to the specific role of caveolin-1 in mediating nitric oxide production.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nowadays, the fact that cancers can aggregate in families is generally accepted. The aim of this study was to complete a comprehensive analysis of cancer-survival concordance in parents and their children diagnosed with the same cancer. METHODS We used a population-based Swedish family database, that included about three million families and data for more than a million individuals with cancer. We analysed survival in children in relation to parental survival by use of the Kaplan-Meier method. We then modelled the risk in children in relation to parental survival by use of two multivariate proportional hazard (Cox) models adjusting for possible confounders of survival. FINDINGS In our univariate Kaplan-Meier analysis, children with the same cancer as their parent and whose parent had died within 10 years of diagnosis showed significantly worse survival for breast (log rank p=0.01), colorectal (p=0.04), and prostate cancer (p=0.05) than those whose parents were alive at 10 years from diagnosis. By use of Cox modelling, we noted an increased hazard ratio for death from cancer in children with poor parental survival compared with those with good parental survival for colorectal cancer (hazard ratio [HR] 1.44 [95% CI 1.01-2.01]), lung cancer (1.39 [1.00-1.94]), breast cancer (1.75 [1.13-2.71]), ovarian cancer (2.23 [0.78-6.34]), and prostate cancer (2.07 [1.13-3.79]). All hazard-ratio estimates, except for ovarian cancer, were significant, with significant trends of increasing risk of death in children by degree of worsening survival outcome in parents defined in quartiles of survival (ie, good [best quartile], expected [middle two quartiles], or poor [worst quartile]). INTERPRETATION Our findings suggest that cancer-specific survival in parents predicts survival from the same cancer in their children. Consequently, data on survival in a parent might have the potential to guide treatment decisions and genetic counselling. Finally, molecular studies to highlight the genetic determinants of cancer survival are now warranted.

Abstract
PURPOSE To report on the aggressiveness of sporadic versus familial prostate cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study sample consisted of 4,112 stage T1-3 prostate cancer patients. The outcome of interest was biochemical relapse-free survival (bRFS). The analysis was performed for two distinct time periods, 1986 to 1992 (year < or = 1992) and 1993 to 2002 (year > or = 1993), to encompass both the early and late prostate-specific antigen (PSA) eras. RESULTS A positive family history (FH positive) was reported in 16%. The 10-year bRFS rates for patients with negative family history (FH negative) versus FH positive were 59% and 63%, respectively (P = .90). However, in the year < or = 1992 period, the 10-year bRFS rates for FH negative versus FH positive were 45% and 34%, respectively (P = .015). In the year > or = 1993 period, the 10-year bRFS rates for FH negative versus FH positive were 61% and 67%, respectively (P = .54). Multivariate analysis failed to reveal family history as an independent predictor of relapse (P = .42). However, in the subset of patients in each era, family history was an independent predictor of relapse only for those treated in the year < or = 1992 period (P = .038). CONCLUSION Family history was an independent predictor of biochemical failure only early in the PSA era, and men with an FH positive presented with more favorable disease later in the PSA era. This suggests that with stage migration and improved therapy, the impact of family history on prognosis has become minimal. However, underlying genetic factors affecting prostate cancer behavior in individuals with familial prostate cancer may still be important in determining individual prognosis.
