Abstract
Periostin (POSTN) regulates multiple biological behaviors of tumor cells. We studied the association of serum POSTN with mortality in home-dwelling men. POSTN was measured at baseline using immunoassay (USCN life science, China) in 815 home-dwelling men aged 60–87 followed-up for 8 years. In the entire cohort, higher serum POSTN was associated with higher all-cause mortality [Hazard Ratio (HR) = 1.30 per Standard Deviation (SD), 95% Confidence...
