Popis: PURPOSE Benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) is a common finding in older men and a frequent cause of lower urinary tract symptoms. The efficacy of exercise in the management of BPH-related inflammation is not fully understood. Thus, we investigated the effects of exercise on inflammatory markers in a mouse model of BPH. METHODS A total of 36 male C57BL/6 mice were divided into three groups; CON (sham control, n=12), BPH-CON (received testosterone propionate [TP] control, n=12), and BPH-EXE (TP+aerobic exercise group, n=12). For BPH induction, mice were castrated and testosterone propionate (3 mg/kg/day) was administered by subcutaneous injection. The exercise group was forced to run on a treadmill for 30 minutes 3 times per week for 12 weeks. RESULTS The BPH-CON group showed significantly increased blood pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-6, -1β, and TNF-α compared with CON (p
