About
Yuh-Shyan Tsai’s research centers on the molecular mechanisms of prostate cancer, with a particular focus on environmental carcinogenesis and rare urological tumors. His most cited work, “Phthalate exposure induces microRNA-5010/Nrf2-EGR1/GDF15 signaling expression in prostate cancer” (2025, 6 citations), reveals a novel pathway linking environmental phthalates to prostate malignancy, demonstrating how these ubiquitous chemicals drive oncogenic signaling through microRNA regulation and oxidative stress. This study, examining cohorts of 204 biopsy patients, provides critical mechanistic insight into how environmental toxins may contribute to prostate cancer progression. Tsai also contributes to the characterization of rare genitourinary pathologies, as shown in his report of a “Seminal Vesicle Schwannoma” (2021, 4 citations), which documents an exceptionally rare benign nerve sheath tumor in the pelvis. His work bridges environmental health and urologic oncology, offering translational relevance for understanding prostate cancer etiology and improving diagnostic recognition of uncommon pelvic tumors.
