Determination of prostate cancer by urine test
Determining the risk of prostate cancer in men will become faster, more convenient thanks to the simple urine test method that British scientists are studying.
Scientists have discovered that a protein, called microseminoprotein-beta or MSMB in male urine, is linked to prostate cancer.

Lead researcher Dr Hayley of the Cambridge Research Institute, said: " We rely on tissue and urine from more than 350 men who are ill and not suffering from prostate cancer to find out their MSMB number. yes '.
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in the UK, killing about 10,000 Britons a year.
Currently men born in families with a history of prostate cancer can perform a blood test of PSA (specific prostate- specific antigen) to detect signs of the disease. However, this method is considered to be limited.
British scientists hope that their new discovery a day can be developed into a large-scale experiment and become a simple, popular method for the disease.
