benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) pathogenesis(5α-redactase convert testosterone into dihydrotestosterone,DHT)
after 30yo,testosterone production decline by 1% every year
meanwhile,5α-redactase increase with age
eventually, more DHT allows luminal and basal cells in the prostate to keep growing and multiplying urologyreproductive May 11, 2019, 1:30 AM HirotoShishido

which cell does secrete inhibin B, androgen binding protein(ABP), and Müllerian inhibitory factor(MIF) in male reproductive system・Sertoli cells
inhibin B which inhibit FSH
ABP allows testosterone to cross blood-testis barrier
(☆if dysfunctioning, low concentration of testosterone in the seminiferous tubule and normal circulating teststerone level can be seen(as long as hypothalamus-pituitary-gonad axis are normally functioning)
MIF that suppress development of paramesonephric ducts
PTHrP(parathyroid hormone-related protein)→ ↑Ca (SCC of the lung)
☆Ectopicerythropoietin(EPO)→ polycythemia
(* RCC can also cause both anemia of chronic disease and iron deficiency anemia due to chronic hematuria)
risk factors for squamous cell carcinoma of the bladderSchistosoma haematobium(ビルハルツ住血吸虫)→cause chronic imflammation in bladder
