Prostate Ca stained with Anti-PsAP
Anti-PSAP reacts with prostatic acid phosphatase in the glandular epithelium of normal and hyperplastic prostate, carcinoma of prostate, and metastatic cells of prostate carcinoma. The marker may be helpful in pinpointing the site of origin in cases of metastatic carcinoma of the prostate, and is considered a more sensitive marker than PSA. However, it also offers less specificity. Neverthless, PSAP complements PSA in the right clinical context.
