A study at the University of Oxford has identified biological markers in the blood that may help predict prostate cancer more than 15 years before it is diagnosed. The research involved measuring over 6,000 proteins in the blood of around 1,000 men over a 16-year period. The study found 12 proteins that were later associated with prostate cancer, including "GZM K" protein, which reflects the immune system's response to cancer-related changes before symptoms appear. Additionally, seven proteins were linked to more aggressive forms of the disease, including "ANKRD1," which is associated with cancer spread or early death. Although these findings open new avenues for understanding aggressive types of prostate cancer, experts emphasized that current tests have not yet proven reliable for prediction. However, there is potential for developing better methods to identify at-risk men and enable early prevention.
