From: High glucose promotes benign prostatic hyperplasia by downregulating PDK4 expression
High glucose downregulation the expression of PDK4 in prostate epithelial cells. (A) The expression of PDK4 in prostate epithelial cells of non-diabetes and diabetes BPH patients was detected by immunohistochemical staining, then observed by optical microscope under 200 × , 400 × . (B) The level of fasting blood glucose in non-diabetes and diabetes BPH patients. (C-D) Western blot analysis of PDK4 expression in BPH-1, RWPE-1 cells after treating 50mM Glu 24 h. *P < 0.05; ***P < 0.001. NC = normal control, 50 mM Glu = 50 Millimoles per liter of glucose.
