Surgery is an important treatment method for benign prostatic hyperplasia. It is suitable for BPH patients with moderate to severe LUTS (Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms) and has significantly affected the quality of life. The surgical methods include transurethral resection of the prostate and transurethral holmium laser enucleation of the prostate. While offering a high chance of cure, it also brings some complications, including postoperative urinary incontinence. This article mainly reviews the urinary incontinence after transurethral prostate surgery in recent years and analyzes its risk factors, and summarizes the experience for further prediction and reduction of the incidence of urinary incontinence.展开更多

We hypothesized that the urinary level of BDNF could be a potential biomarker for lower urinary tract symptoms(LUTS) in patients with BPH. Totally, 76 patients with BPH-caused LUTS and 32 male control subjects without BPH were enrolled. International Prostate Symptom Score(IPSS) was applied to assess the symptom severity of LUTS. Urodynamic tests were performed for the diagnosis of underlying detrusor overactivity(DO) in the patients with BPH. Urine samples were collected from all subjects. Urinary BDNF levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and normalized by urinary creatinine(Cr) levels. Seventy-six BPH patients were divided into moderate LUTS group(n=51, 720) according to the IPSS. Of the 76 BPH patients, DO was present in 34(44.7%) according to the urodynamic test. The urinary BDNF/Cr levels were significantly higher in BPH patients with moderate LUTS(8.29±3.635, P〈0.0001) and severe LUTS(11.8±6.44, P〈0.0001) than normal controls(1.71±0.555). Patients with severe LUTS tended to have higher urinary BDNF/Cr levels than patients with moderate LUTS(11.8±6.44 vs. 8.29±3.635, P=0.000). The conditions of BPH with LUTS correlated with elevated urinary BDNF levels, and urinary BDNF levels were even higher in BPH-DO patients. The results of this study have provided evidence to suggest that urinary BDNF level test could evaluate the severity of LUTS in BPH patients, and BDNF level can be used as a biomarker展开更多

Methods: Seventy-four consecutive patients who were diagnosed clinically for the prostate diseases, including forty-four cases with benign prostate hyperplasia and thirty cases with prostatic cancer proved pathologically, were examined by PWI. MVD and VEGF were stained with immunohistochemical methods. Some parameters of PWl, including the steepest slope of signal intensity-time curve (SSmax) and the change in relaxation rate (ΔR2^* peak) at lesions, were analyzed. Correlation analysis was used to determine the relationship between the results of PWl and immunohistochemistry. Results: (1) In the benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH), SSmax and ΔR2^* peak of perfusion curve were 34.2 ± 2.9 and 1.49 ± 0.11, respectively; however, in the prostatic cancer (Pca), they were 58.6± 4.8 and 3.18 ±0.49 respectively; there were statistical differences (t = 2.16 and 2.31, P 〈 0.05). (2) The VEGF and MVD expressions of thirty Pca patients were significantly higher than those of forty-four BPH patients (x2 = 28.64, P 〈 0.01; t = 21.2, P 〈 0.01). MVD expressions of Pca and BPH groups showed positive associations with VEGF expressions (P 〈 0.01). On MR perfusion-weighted imaging, SSmax and ΔR2^* peak showed associations with MVD and VEGF expressions (P 〈 0.01). Conclusion: On MR perfusion-weighted imaging, SSmax and ΔR2^* peak can reflect MVD and VEGF expression levels in the benign and malignant prostate diseases and might be implied the tumor angiogenesis so as to distinguish benign from malignant and provide the important information for the surgeon to diagnose and treat the prostatic diseases.展开更多

TGF-β1 and c-Myc expression were measured by qRT-PCR and Western blotting in the proximal and distal region of ventral prostatic lobes, respectively. We observed that treatment with cetrorelix led to a significant reduction of ventral prostate weight in a dose-dependent manner. In the proximal region, after cetrorelix treatment, the expression of TGF-β1 was dramatically increased (P〈0.05), while the expression of c-Myc was significantly decreased (P〈0.05). In comparison with the control group, the cetrorelix groups had more TUNEL-positive cells. Our findings strongly suggest that the TGF-β signaling pathway may be one of the major causes responsible for prostate volume reduction in BPH rats after cetrorelix treatment.展开更多
