Alpha Methyl Acyl CoA Racemase (AMACR), a peroxisomal and mitochondrial enzyme, is up regulated in majority of prostate cancers (PCa). This enzyme is involved in the breakdown of phytanic & pristanic acids, which are derived primarily through the ingestion of dairy and red meat products. There are no studies done so far that have examined the relationship of this enzyme with red meat and dairy intake and therefore PCa risk. ...
