Article Synopsis
- Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a prevalent condition in older adults, marked by excessive growth of prostate cells, and neferine—an alkaloid with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties—shows promise in treating it.
- Neferine administration in a BPH mouse model reduced prostate weight and expression levels of various proteins linked to BPH progression, potentially indicating its effectiveness in managing the disease.
- Additionally, neferine appears to counteract the effects of TGF-β1 on prostate cells, suggesting its role in regulating important signaling pathways that contribute to prostate health, making it a potential candidate for BPH treatment.
