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 ...
