The aim of this study on testosterone (T) metabolism in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostatic cancer was to compare the formation of metabolites in freshly isolated epithelial cells and in cells of long-term cultures (2 passages) and to identify the 5alpha-reductase (5alpha-R) and 17beta-

## Abstract The prostatic epithelium is functionally organized in stem cell units. This unit consists of a slow turn over stem cell within the basal epithelial layer which can replenish itself and provide progeny which differentiate down either a neuroendocrine or exocrine pathway. The maturation a
## BACKGROUND. Whereas the embryological development of the human prostate is clearly dependent on steroid 5␣-reductase (5␣-R) type 2 expression, the respective expression of the two known isoforms (types 1 and 2) of 5␣-R in the adult human prostate remains unclear. METHODS. 5␣-R isoform mRNA expr
