Evaluating Race Specific AGE Accumulation as a Behavioral Biomarker That Can Reflect Optimal Health in Prostate Cancer Survivors

The purpose of this study is to show that reduction in advanced glycation end-products (AGEs)
is associated with the beneficial regulation of receptor for AGE (RAGE) mediated tumor
response which may correlate with improved quality of life in PCa survivors. AGEs are
produced by the body and are affected by lifestyle, weight and diet.
