Lipid and Foam Cell Accumulation as Novel Pathological Features of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
ABSTRACT Background Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) encompasses a heterogeneous set of pathological processes that instigate lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Using a mouse model of steroid hormone imbalance–induced lower urinary tract dysfunction, we identified luminal lipid‐laden foamy macrophages, although their presence and contribution to ...

ABSTRACT Blood‐based liquid biopsies hold transformative potential for non‐invasive cancer management, but current approaches relying on rare circulating tumor components limit their broad clinical utility. Platelets, abundant in blood and mediating diverse cancer‐associated responses, represent a compelling yet largely unexplored alternative.
