A comparative study on the localization of prostatic inhibin peptide was carried out by the immunoperoxidase technique in prostates of humans, bonnet and langur monkeys, marmosets, dogs, and rats. A positive reaction was observed in the prostatic epithelial cells of humans, in all three species of monkeys, and in the rat, while the dog prostate did not exhibit any reaction. These observations indicate a close immunological similarity among human, monkey, and rat prostatic inhibin peptides.

Knowledge of factors associated with semen quality may help in investigations of the aetiology and pathophysiology. We investigated the correlation between biomarkers for testicular cell function (anti-müllerian hormone, AMH, Inhibin B, testosterone, free androgen-index (testosterone/sex-hormone binding globulin), insulin like peptide 3, INSL-3), alkaline phosphate (ALP), canine prostate-specific esterase (CPSE), and heterophilic antibodies with dog variables, semen quality, and fertility. Blood and semen were collected from 65 Bernese Mountain Dogs.

Introduction: Prostate cancer incidence is rising rapidly worldwide, which includes Asian countries too. There are a lot of controversies regarding the link between endogenous testosterone levels and prostate disorders. This study was conducted to understand the value of serum testosterone in predicting the risk and occurrence of prostate carcinoma.

Aside from nonmelanoma skin cancer, prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men in the United States, and benign prostatic hyperplasia is the most common benign tumor found in men. Until recently, its endocrine functions and possible influence on the hypothalamic-pituitary axis have been relatively understudied. This review summarizes the current understanding of the potential endocrine functions of prostate cancer and benign prostate tissue.
