Fibroblast growth factor 2 promotes bladder hypertrophy caused by partial bladder outlet obstruction


ABSTRACT: The current study aims to investigate molecular alterations and biomarkers associated with partial BOO (PBOO) in rats. RNA-seq analyses were conducted to identify molecular alterations. Rats with PBOO experienced hypertrophy of smooth muscle cells and hyperplasia of interstitial cells during the first 4 weeks after the initiation of obstruction. Four weeks later, rats with PBOO showed activation of the adaptive immune response, cell death and apoptosis. The levels of BDNF and FGF2 in the serum gradually increased in the first four weeks and gradually decreased after week 4. FGF2 levels slightly correlated with prostate volume (R=0.156, P=0.0028) but not with age or BMI in BPH patients. FGF2 is involved in the development of hypertrophy in the PBOO bladder and shows a positive correlation with prostate volume in BPH patients.
