Abstract:The effects of testosterone (T) and 17 beta-estradiol (E2) on the prostate of castrated rats were investigated by histopathological and immunocytochemical procedures. A significant increase in prostatic weight occurred after 6 weeks treatment with T alone and in combination with E2. The greatest increase in prostatic weight occurred after the administration of T plus E2. Histopathologically, glandular hyperplasia of the prostate was noted, and the number of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU)-positive cells showed a significant increase over that induced by testosterone alone.
