Resumen
Prostatic differentiation during embryogenesis and its further homeostatic state maintenance during adult life depend on androgens. Dihydrotestosterone, which is synthesized from testosterone by 5α-reductase (5α-r), is the active molecule triggering androgen action within the prostate. In the present work, we examined the effects of 5α-reductase inhibition by finasteride in the ventral prostate (VP) of the adult gerbil, employing histochemical and electron microscopy techniques to demonstrate the morphological and organizational changes of the organ. After 10 days of finasteride treatment at a dose of 100 mg/kg/day, the prostatic complex (VP and dorsolateral prostate) absolute weight was reduced to about 18%. The epithelial cells became short and cuboidal, with less secretory blebs and reduced acid phosphatase activity. The luminal sectional area diminished, suggestive of decreased secretory activity. The stromal/epithelial ratio increased, the stroma becoming thicker but less cellular. There was a striking accumulation of collagen fibrils, which was accompanied by an increase in deposits of amorphous granular material adjacent to the basal lamina and in the clefts between smooth muscle cells (SMC). Additionally, the periacinar smooth muscle became loosely packed. Some SMC were atrophic and showed a denser array of the cytoskeleton, whereas other SMC had a highly irregular outline with numerous spine-like projections. The present data indicate that 5α-r inhibition causes epithelial and stromal changes by affecting intra-prostatic hormone levels. These alterations are probably the result of an imbalance of the homeostatic interaction between the epithelium and the underlying stroma. © International Society of Differentiation 2004. 72 5 198 208 Antonioli, E., Della-Colleta, H.H.M., Carvalho, H.F., Smooth muscle cell behavior in the ventral prostate of castrated rats (2004) J Androl, 25, pp. 50-56 Aoki-Komori, S., Saito, T.R., Umeda, M., Sugiyama, M., Takahashi, K.W., Taniguchi, K., Lectin histochemical studies on the scent gland in the Syrian hamster and Mongolian gerbil (1994) Jikken Dobutsu, 43, pp. 181-190 Astancolle, S., Guidetti, C., Pinna, C., Corti, A., Bettuzzi, S., Increased levels of clusterin (SGP-2) mRNA and protein accompany rat ventral prostate involution following finasteride treatment (2000) J Endocrinol, 167, pp. 197-204 Berthaut, I., Mestayer, C., Portois, M.C., Cussenot, O., Mowszowicz, I., Pharmacological and molecular evidence for the expression of the two steroid 5α-reductase isozymes in normal and hyperplastic human prostatic cells in culture (1997) Prostate, 32, pp. 155-163 Bleicher, R.J., Cabot, M.C., Glucosylceramide synthase and apoptosis (2002) Biochem Biophys Acta, 1585, pp. 172-178 Boesch, S.T., Corvin, S., Zhang, J., Rogastsch, H., Bartsch, G., Klocker, H., Modulation of the differentiation status of cultured prostatic smooth muscle cells by an α1-adrenergic receptor antagonist (1999) Prostate, 39, pp. 226-233 Bruchovsky, N., Wilson, J.D., Discovery of the role of dihydrotestosterone in androgen action (1999) Steroids, 64, pp. 753-759 Carson, C., Rittmaster, R., The role of dihydrotestosterone in benign prostatic hyperplasia (2003) Urology, 61 (SUPPL. 4), pp. 2-7 Carvalho, H.F., Line, S.R.P., Basement membrane associated chances in the rat ventral prostate following castration (1996) Cell Biol Int, 20, pp. 809-819 Carvalho, H.F., Vilamaior, P.S.L., Taboga, S.R., Elastic system fibers of the rat ventral prostate and its modifications following orchiectomy (1997) Prostate, 32, pp. 27-34 Carvalho, H.F., Vilamaior, P.S.L., Taboga, S.R., Collagen type VI is a component of the extracellular matrix microfibrils network of the prostatic stroma (1997) Tissue Cell, 29, pp. 163-170 Cordeiro, R.S., Scarano, W.R., Goes, R.M., Taboga, S.R., Tissular alterations in the Guinea pig prostate following the antiandrogen flutamide therapy (2003) Biol Cell, 28, pp. 21-30 Cotta-Pereira, G., Rodrigo, F.G., David-Ferreira, J.F., The use of tannic acid-glutaraldehyde in the study of elastic related fibers (1976) Stain Technol, 51, pp. 7-11 Cunha, G.R., Hayward, S.W., Dahiya, R., Foster, B.A., Smooth muscle-epithelial interactions in normal and neoplastic prostatic development (1996) Acta Anat, 155, pp. 5-17 Cunha, G.R., Hayward, S.W., Wang, Y.Z., Role of stroma in carcinogenesis of the prostate (2002) Differentiation, 70, pp. 473-485 Custodio, A.M., Goes, R.M., Taboga, S.R., Acid phosphatase activity in gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus) prostate: Comparative study in female and male glands during postnatal development (2004) Cell Biol Int, 28, pp. 335-344 Salle, E., Giudici, D., Biagini, L., Cominato, C., Briatto, G., Panzeri, A., Effects of 5α-reductase inhibitors on intraprostatic androgens in the rat (1995) J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol, 53, pp. 381-385 Doevendans, P.A., Van Eys, G., Smooth muscle cells on the move: The battle for actin (2002) Cardiovasc Res, 54, pp. 499-502 Santos, F.A., Goes, R.M., Carvalho, H.F., Taboga, S.R., Structure, histochemistry, and ultrastructure of the epithelium and stroma in the gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus) female prostate (2003) Tissue Cell, 35, pp. 447-457 Ekman, P., The prostate as an endocrine organ: Androgens and estrogens (2000) Prostate Suppl, 10, pp. 14-18 Geller, J., Effects of finasteride, a 5α-reductase inhibitor on prostate tissue androgens and prostate-specific anticen (1990) J Clin Endocrinol Metab, 71, pp. 552-1555 Hayward, S.W., Cunha, G.R., Dahiya, R., Normal development and carcinogenesis of the prostate.
