Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) treatment includes the apoptosis machinery modulation through the direct inhibition of caspase cascade. We previously demonstrated that Serenoa repens (Ser) with lycopene (Ly) and selenium (Se) reawakened apoptosis by reducing survivin and neuronal apoptosis inhibitory protein (NAIP) levels in rats. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Se...

c Abstract: Background: Bladder diverticulae are mucosal outpunching and majority are acquired and secondary to either benign prostatic hypertrophy or the upper motor type of neurogenic bladder. Aim & Objectives: This study was undertaken to increase knowledge and understanding the presumed role of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) in the development of bladder diverticulae and to compare cyst...

Introduction: All men show characteristics of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) upon aging; it is the most common benign neoplasm in men. When the prostate is enlarged it causes a narrowing of the urethra leading to bladder outlet obstruction and reduced urine flow. The symptoms vary and include nocturia, incomplete emptying, urinary hesitance, weak stream, urgency and frequency to the develop...

Abstract Background Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a common disease which causes various health problems for elderly men such as urinary retention, recurring tract infection and bladder stones. The aim of this study to evaluate the therapeutic effects Juniperus communis L . seed extract (JCS) on BPH in male Wistar rats. Methods To end, 30 rats were divided into 5 groups ( N = 6): group 1...

OBJECTIVES To explore the spectrum of pathologies diagnosed in prostatic biopsies of Saudi men, and test whether the frequency of diagnosing the malignant fraction has been changed over the last 15 years, and assess the association between chronic inflammation (CI) with both benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and cancer (PCa), and investigate the histological findings of cases presented with ac...

Introduction. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is characterized by the occurrence of disorders urine storage and bladder emptying. Most men over age 60 years are affected to some degree. Transurethral laser resection prostate (TURP) minimally invasive, endoscopic one modern technologies biomedical engineering, which can cause minimal harm patients recognized as "gold" standard in urology. It ...

Previous studies have showed that men suffering from diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome (MetS) and obesity have a higher risk of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The present study aimed to examine the association between BPH, obesity, and features of MetS among men of the Hunan area of China. For this cross-sectional study, 904 males (aged 50-59 years) were included. MetS parameters, Inte...

Background: Prostatic adenocarcinoma by Prosate cancer (PCa) is the most prevalent cancer and the second cause of cancer-related death among men in the Western world. Human papilloma virus (HPV) may be considered as a preventable risk factor. In this study, we assessed the frequencies of HPV infection in prostatic adenocarcinoma and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) cases in Northeast Mexico. ...

Early evidences have showed that mast cells could infiltrate into benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) tissues, but the exact role of mast cells in BPH development remains unclear. In this study, we identified more mast cells existing in human BPH tissues compared with that in the normal prostate. In the in vitro co-culture system, BPH-1 prostate cells promoted activation and migration of mast ce...

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Treatment for lower urinary tract symptoms in older men s Enlargement of the prostate affects about one third of men over 50 and can cause distressing urinary symptoms. s The progress of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is unpredictable, but only a minority of men deteriorate rapidly and some will improve spontaneously. s Many men willingly tolerate mild symptoms ...
