Abstract
- Objective: To investigate the expressions of interleukin-17 (IL-17) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and BPH complicated with histological inflammation and their significance.<br />Methods: According to the results of HE staining, we divided 60 cases of BPH treated by transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) into a BPH group (n = 23) and a BPH with inflammation group (n = 37). We analyzed the clinical data of the patients and determined the mRNA and protein expressions of IL-17 and IL-8 by immunohistochemistry, real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, and Western blot, respectively.<br />Results: Compared with the BPH patients complicated with inflammation, the BPH group showed significantly lower International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) (29.1 ± 6.2 vs 21.6 ± 3.7), quality of life score (QoL) (5.4 ± 1.3 vs 4.4 ± 1.6), postvoid residual urine volume (RUV) ([198.6 ± 15.5] vs [98.2 ± 19.3] ml), prostate volume ([69.2 ± 24.1] vs [49.8 ± 16.5] ml), PSA level ([7.4 ± 1.9] vs [2.8 ± 0.8] μg/L) and serum c-reactive protein content (CRP) ([5.1±2.0] vs [1.5±0.6] mg/L), but a higher maximum urine flow rate (Qmax) ([4.7 ± 2.1] vs [8.2 ± 1.8] ml/s) (all P<0.05). The former group had a significantly higher incidence rate of urinary retention than the latter (32.4% [12/37] vs 8.69% [2/23]), mRNA expressions of IL-17 (0.303 ± 0.076 vs 0.042 ± 0.019) and IL-8 (0.536 ± 0.059 vs 0.108 ± 0.025), and protein expressions of IL-17 (0.88 ± 0.10 vs 0.34 ± 0.05) and IL-8 (1.07 ± 0.08 vs 0.43 ± 0.04) (all P<0.05).<br />Conclusions: The expressions of IL-17 and IL-8 are upregulated in the prostatic tissue of the BPH patients with inflammation, which may play a significant role in the development and progression of BPH.
