Annually, over 200 000 new prostate cancer cases are diagnosed in Europe. This number is expected to further increase due to widespread use of prostate specific antigen (PSA) tests on asymptomatic men and an aging population.

Dr Meijer’s group has identified a novel SC expressed factor, Lgi4, involved in nerve development and function. The Lgi4 gene is mutated in a natural mouse mutant called Claw Paw, which exhibits delayed axonal s ...
