ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Chronic abacterial prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) accounts for 90% of clinical prostatitis, and there is no specific and effective treatment for it. Jiedu Huoxue decoction (JDHXD) has been believed to be an effective agent for CP/CPPS, but the specific mechanism remains unclear.METHODS:
Carrageenan and LPS were used to established the animal and cell models of CP/CPPS, respectively. The prostate index, urine volume, lumen area, epithelial thickness, and pain response time were investigated. TUNEL staining and flow cytometry were applied to measure apoptosis levels in vivo and in vitro.RESULTS:
JDHXD improved CP/CPPS recovery in a dose-dependent manner. JDHXD restrained apoptosis and activated Wnt/GSK-3ß/ß-catenin signaling pathway in the CP/CPPS animal model. Inhibition of Wnt/GSK-3ß/ß-catenin signaling pathway remarkably aggravated apoptosis and suppressed the improvement of CP/CPPS by JDHXD. XAX939 markedly reversed the suppression of cell apoptosis and ROS level caused by JDHXD in vitro.CONCLUSION:
Jiedu Huoxue decoction improved CP/CPPS through activating Wnt/GSKß/ß-catenin signaling pathway and inhibiting apoptosis. This study might provide a novel insight for the prevention and treatment of CP/CPPS through activating Wnt/GSK-3ß/ß-catenin signaling pathway.Palavras-chave
