Published in Cancer Weekly, April 26th, 2005

Scientists championed for the further study of using Magmas as a prognosticator for neoplastic human prostate.

According to recent research published in the Journal of Molecular Histology, "Magmas is a 13-kDa mitochondrial protein which is ubiquitously expressed in eukaryotic cells. It was identified as a granulocyte-macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) inducible gene in hematopoietic cells and has a key role in the transport of mitochondrial proteins in yeast. Because GM-CSF receptor levels are elevated in prostate cancer, Magmas expression was examined in normal and neoplastic tissue."

"Magmas protein levels were barely detectable...
