Gene regulation of prostaglandin synthase and prostate diseases
WU Shuang-shuang
Abstract：Prostaglandin synthase (PGS) can catalyze the production of various types of prostaglandins and regulate the expression levels of related substances.The regulation mechanisms of the PGS gene are closely related with the occurrence and development of prostate diseases.However,few studies are reported on the regulation mechanisms of PGS in prostatic diseases,such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer (PCa),or on the relationship between PGS gene regulation and prostate diseases.This review aims to analyze their correlation and provide some ideas for the prevention and control of BPH and PCa by intervention of the prostaglandin synthase regulatory pathway.
