Background Information
Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), also known as glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCPII), is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein that has gained significant attention in the field of prostate cancer (PCa) diagnostics and therapeutics. PSMA is highly overexpressed in prostate cancer tissue, especially in aggressive, androgen-deprived, metastatic, and hormone-refractory prostate cancers. Up to 95% of prostate adenocarcinomas express PSMA receptors on their surface. Physiological expression of PSMA is observed in normal prostate epithelium, duodenum, colon, renal tubules, and sympathetic ganglia. It is also found in other tissues such as the salivary glands, lacrimal glands, and various parts of the gastrointestinal tract, though at lower levels.
