Highlights |
• | Carbon nanotubes with laser hyperthermia decrease prostate specific antigen. |
• | Carbon nanotubes with laser hyperthermia induce caspase 1 activation. |
• | Carbon nanotubes with laser hyperthermia induce apoptosis in prostatic epithelial cells. |
• | Carbon nanotubes with laser hyperthermia reduce prostate size of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). |
• | Carbon nanotubes with laser hyperthermia attenuate BPH histopathologic indices. |
Abstract |
Objective |
In the current study we have stimulated the efficacy of plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) by laser hyperthermia to achieve a less invasive method for tumor photothermal therapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Methods |
The levels of apoptosis on induced BPH in rats were assessed after treatment and revealed and recorded by various assayed. Moreover, the expression of caspases was considered to demonstrate the apoptotic pathways due to laser induced plasmonic NPs.
Results |
In the Laser + NPs group prostate size of induced BPH decreased. Laser + NPs also decreased prostate specific antigen in comparison with the BPH groups. Furthermore, Laser + NPs attenuated BPH histopathologic indices in the rats. Laser + NPs induced apoptosis in prostatic epithelial cells via caspase-1 pathway.
Conclusions |
Altogether, the approach and findings from this study can be applied to introduce the laser irritated NPs method as a novel and less invasive therapy for patients suffering from BPH.
