본문내용
Histopathologically, BPH is defined as an increased number of epithelial and stromal cells in the periurethral area of the prostate and referred to as hyperplasia. Androgens, estrogens, stromal-epithelial interactions, growth factors, regulation of programmed cell death and neurotransmitters may play a role, either singly or in combination, in the etiology of the hyperplastic process.
1. Hormonal regulation
1) Androgens Pathway
The development of BPH requires the presence of testicular androgens during prostate development, puberty, and aging. Prostatic levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) as well as the androgen recep¬tor (AR) remain high with aging despite the peripheral levels of testosterone are decreasing. Androgen with¬drawal leads to partial involution of established BPH. However, there is no clear relationship between the concentration of androgens and prostate size in aging men. In the prostate, the nuclear membrane–bound enzyme steroid 5α-reductase converts the hormone testosterone
