Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We elucidated that some chemokines, including CCL2/MCP-1 and CXCL1/CINC-1, were elevated in the prostate and urine of non-bacterial prostatitis(NBP) model rats, and Eviprostat potently suppressed the increases in CCL2/MCP-1 and CXCL1/CINC-1. These chemokines are therefore candidate diagnostic biomarkers for nonbacterial chronic prostatic inflammation. However, in human urine, we could not detect the change of chemokines. Further study for detection in human urine is warranted.
