Two forms of prostatic hyperplasia are distinguished: fibro-glandular (FGH) and glandular-fibrous (GFH). An increase in the number of adenohypophysis cells producing gonadotrophic hormone, hyperplasia of the adrenal reticular zone, hyperplasia and hypertrophy of Leydig and Sertoli cells in the testis were observed in FGH. Signs of enhanced functional activity were observed in all cases of hyperplasia. In GFH there was an increase in the number of adenohypophyseal cells producing adrenocorticotrophic hormone, hyperplasia of the fascicular layer in the adrenals, atrophy of Leydig cells in the presence of Sertoli cell hyperplasia. The variant of prostatic hyperplasia is determined by the hormonal changes and this may help in choosing of approaches to therapeutic correction of prostatic hyperplasia and its early diagnosis.

Prostate cancer is the second most common type of cancer in male worldwide. Stromal-epithelial interaction is thought to have a major impact on cancer development and progression. Previous studies have shown that interaction via soluble factors lead to a reduction in the expression of xCT and AL122023.

Introduction: Macrophages exhibit marked phenotypic heterogeneity within and across disease states, with lipid metabolic reprogramming contributing to macrophage activation and heterogeneity. Chronic inflammation has been observed in human benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) tissues, however macrophage activation states and their contributions to this hyperplastic disease have not been defined. We postulated that a shift in macrophage phenotypes with increasing prostate size could involve metabolic alterations resulting in prostatic epithelial or stromal hyperplasia.

Background: We compared the safety and efficacy of holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) and transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) in elderly men (aged ≥75 years) with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Methods: A retrospective analysis of 151 patients (HoLEP: 72; TURP: 79) was conducted. Preoperative and postoperative parameters, including prostate size, International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), catheterization duration, hospital stay, and perioperative complications (incontinence and dysuria), were analyzed.

Background: Urolithiasis (kidney stone) is a common condition that often leads patients to urgent or emergency care services. Urinary calculi are generally found in the kidneys, ureters, or bladder. Urethral calculi are uncommon and can result from the migration of a calculus in the upper urinary tract or vesicle or may be primary of the urethra.
