Prostate Tissue Inflammation Pathway

The prostate tissue inflammation pathway encompasses a network of cellular and molecular events that drive inflammatory responses within the prostate gland. This pathway is implicated in the pathogenesis of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), chronic prostatitis, and progression to prostate cancer. It involves immune cell infiltration, cytokine production, activation of intracellular signaling cascades, and remodeling of the local microenvironment.
