The second most common kind of cancer in males is prostate cancer (PCa). Lack of effective risk assessment methods leads to overtreatment of males with PCa, delayed diagnosis of metastatic disease, and high fatality rates. Our research's objective was to find potential biomarkers for improved risk stratification that could be associated to PCa's development and aggressiveness. To achieve this, we examined Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded (FFPE) prostate tissue specimens based on grade groups and biochemical recurrence status using proteome analysis. We have chosen seven proteins as common indicators of PCa aggressiveness and persistence based on the insightful data produced by these comparisons, which may one day be used to construct risk assessment systems. Notably, the transcriptomics literature and data broadly support our observations.

Effective risk stratification is essential for patients with moderate or high risk PCa because their prognosis is typically not good. Additionally, PCa is frequently a multifocal condition, which means that many tumours may develop in the same prostate. Furthermore, interfocal and intrafocal genetic heterogeneity as well as phenotypic heterogeneity are frequent characteristics in a single patient. It is also believed that PCa's focal origin affects its capacity for metastasis. Because of this heterogeneity, finding molecular biomarkers that may be utilised to determine patient risk and guide treatment outcomes presents a further hurdle.

The Custom analysis for Homo sapiens was used in Metascape to do out enrichment analysis. Only the Reactome Gene Sets, KEGG Pathway, WikiPathways, Canonical Routes, and PANTHER Pathway databases were used to obtain pathways for the Enrichment analysis. The default configurations were applied to the remaining parameters. Only the group summaries are offered in order to prevent repetition, and the conclusions are condensed based on biological significance.
