Abstract
|
|
|
|
Benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common elderly disease, and because of prolonged incubation period and many side effects of medication or surgical interventions, the use of dietary phytochemicals is considered as an effective measure for prevention of BPH. The purpose of this study is to investigate the mechanism of inhibition effect for BPH by flavonoids such as baicalein and kaempferol. BPH cells were collected through biopsy from patients with PSA of 4 or higher, followed by primary culture. In vitro experiments were conducted to evaluate mitochondrial respiration, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and expression of inflammatory markers, genes, and anti-oxidants. In conclusion, baicalein and kaempferol have been demonstrated to inhibit BPH through lowering ROS, thereby reducing inflammation triggers, and reduced inflammation. This study is expected to be helpful in the development of flavonoids that have a clinical effect on suppressing BPH.
