BACKGROUND. Inhibitors of 5β£ reductase (5β£R), the enzyme that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), have been shown to retard the growth of hyperplastic prostates. This study evaluates the effects of the 5β£R inhibitor, epristeride, on cultured stromal and epithelial cells from benign,
Epidemiological studies strongly support the contention that surgical castration prior to age forty prevents both benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) and prostate cancer. 5 alpha-Reductase deficiency in humans, an experiment of nature, is an uncommon genetically transmitted disorder in which prostate
