Example text
The authors stress that effective therapy for prostatitis depends upon correct diagnosis and classification of patients into clinically distinct syndromes, which allow the physician a better understanding of the disease process. Prostatitis is classified as bacterial prostatitis (acute and chronic), nonbacterial prostatitis (NBP), or prostatodynia. ABP and CBP are caused more commonly by gram-negative enteric organisms that are usually isolated in urinary tract infections (UTIs). NBP presents similarly to bacterial prostatitis, but as its name implies, bacterial cultures obtained from the urethra, bladder, and prostate are repeatedly negative.
We hypothesize that NBCP is an inflammatory disease of the prostate that results from an imbalance of specific T-lymphocyte subpopulations. To test this hypothesis, we have developed the following specific aims: (1) to isolate, characterize and correlate T cells and T cell clones from fluids (blood, urine, prostate fluids) and tissue from NBCP, non NBCP and normal patient; (2) to characterize and correlate the distribution of CD4 Th1 and CD4 Th2 lymphocytes and associated cytokines in fluids (blood, urine, prostate fluids) and tissue from NBCP, non NBCP and normal patients; and (3) to characterize and correlate the distribution of mast cells and mast cellrelated factors in NBCP, non NBCP and normal patients.
