OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effectiveness and the tolerability of a combined pure anti-inflammatory therapy not associated with antibiotics on reducing PSA levels.
METHODS
Patients with a previous biopsy negative for prostate cancer and showing persisting level of prostate-specific antigen (PSA)
BACKGROUND
Permixon®, the hexanic lipidosterolic extract of saw palmetto Serenoa repens (LSESr), has shown properties that highlight its benefit in the management of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). To address its actual anti-inflammatory potency, we used a unique pro-inflammatory mouse model of
WS® 1541 is a phytopharmaceutical drug combination containing a lipophilic extract from fruits of Sabal serrulata (WS® 1473) and an aqueous ethanolic extract from roots of Urtica dioica (WS® 1031). It is approved in several countries worldwide for the
The extract SG 291 (Talso, Talso uno) from the fruits of Sabal serrulata (syn.: Serenoa repens) prepared by supercritical fluid extraction with carbon dioxide is used for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and non bacterial prostatitis. In the present work, the Sabal extract SG 291
BACKGROUND
Atypical prostatic hyperplasia (APH) is a pseudoneoplastic lesion that can mimic prostate adenocarcinoma because of its cytologic and architectural features. Suspension of date palm pollen (DPP) is an herbal mixture that is widely used in folk medicine for male infertility. The aim of the
Recently, we reported that the date palm seed (DP) and saw palmetto seed (SP) extracts possessed a great amount of phenolic contents with potent antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory activities. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the role of DP and SP phenolic-rich extracts in
BACKGROUND
Serenoa repens (saw palmetto) has been employed for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) for several years. Its mechanism of action is believed to be due to antiandrogenic, antiproliferative and antinflammatory properties. An association of Serenoa with the nettle "Urtica
This literature review focuses on the use of Serenoa repens extracts in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Extracts of Serenoa repens produce marked anti-inflammatory, anti-androgenic and antiproliferative effects. Various extracts differ in
Serenoa repens (SeR) is frequently associated with other natural compounds, such as lycopene (Ly), a carotenoid, and selenium (Se), an essential trace element, to increase its therapeutic activity in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The LY-Se-SeR association has a greater and stronger
OBJECTIVE
Men affected with Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH) and Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) are demonstrating to require an increasing amount of attention from Urologists and Primary-care Physicians. Over the years, common urological medications were based on either alpha-blockers and/or
OBJECTIVE
The huge resurgence of interest in herbal remedies has spawned a global industry that now competes with conventional drugs as adjuncts and/or alternatives for various conditions. The medical treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is no exception. Along with alpha-blockers and
Male infertility is a wide spread disease among couple of childbearing age. Spermatozoa are highly susceptible to oxidative stress. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are capable of damaging the sperm membrane and DNA, inducing lipid peroxidation and sperm DNA fragmentation (SDF). Saw palmetto extract (SPE) has been widely used for the treatment of lower urinary-tract symptoms secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia. The mechanisms of pharmacological effects of SPE include the inhibition of 5alpha-reductase, anti-androgenic effects, anti-proliferative effects, and
Chronic inflammation of the hair follicle (HF) is considered a contributing factor in the pathogenesis of androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Previously, we clinically tested liposterolic extract of Serenoa repens (LSESr) and its glycoside, β-sitosterol, in subjects with AGA and showed a highly positive
BACKGROUND
The nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-dependent membrane protein 5α-reductase catalyses the conversion of testosterone to the most potent androgen - 5α-dihydrotestosterone. Two 5α-reductase isoenzymes are expressed in humans: type I and type II. The latter is found primarily in
