ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To study the re-epithelialization of dog's prostate urethra after two-micron laser resection of the prostate (TmLRP) and the role of CK34 (CK34ßE12)-positive cells in this process.METHODS:
TmLRP were performed in 15 elder male dogs and wound specimens harvested at Days 3, 7 and 14 respectively. Immunohistochemical staining was performed to determine the expression levels of CK34 and prostate specific antigen (PSA) in prostatic urethra urothelial cells.RESULTS:
There was no CK34-positive cells in surgical wounds after 3 days while a cluster of CK34-positive cells were found to cover surgical wounds after 7 days, and these cells attached to residual prostate tissues. At Day 14 post-operation, positive expression of CK34 was found in basal cells of newborn urothelium.CONCLUSION:
Prostate tissues are the important organizations for re-epithelialization of prostatic urethra after benign prostate hyperplasia surgery, and CK34-positive basal cells play an important role in this process.
