Title: The significance of fibroblast growth factor 10 mRNA expression in benign prostate hyperplasia tissue
Abstract: Aim To determine expression of fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF 10) in benign prostate hyperplasia tissue. Methods The expression levels of FGF 10 mRNA in benign prostate hyperplasia and normal prostate tissues were detected by semi quantitive RT PCR, while the expression level of FGF 10 protein were detected by immunohistochemcal staining and quantitative analysis. Results The expression levels of both FGF 10 mRNA and protein in benign prostate hyperplasiatissue were higher than those in normal prostate tissues. Conclusion FGF 10 may play an important role in benign prostate hyperplasia tissue.
