项目摘要
ABSTRACT
Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are a significant burden to aging men and are often as a result of benign
prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). While BPH/LUTS is not commonly fatal with proper medical intervention, it does
cause a significant reduction in quality of life for many men as they age. Furthermore, BPH/LUTS increases risk
of mortality and results in billions of dollars in healthcare costs annually. There is currently a subset of BPH/LUTS
patients that fail FDA-approved treatments (α-blockers, 5ARI), and these patients have been shown to have
increased prostatic fibrosis. There is no FDA-approved medication targeting fibrosis or the aging process in
BPH/LUTS, even though aging is the greatest risk factor. This proposal aims to develop a better understanding
about the role of aging, fibrosis, and mitochondrial dysfunction in BPH/LUTS. Mitochondrial dysfunction is a
hallmark of both aging and fibrosis and has not been thoroughly studied in relation to BPH/LUTS. Preliminary
data suggests that oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) is a mitochondrial pathway contributing to cellular
dysfunction in BPH/LUTS. Aim 1 of this proposal intends to investigate the connection between OXPHOS
disruption and lower urinary tract dysfunction (LUTD) in a novel mouse model. Aim 2 of this proposal will
investigate the connection between OXPHOS disruption and pathways associated with fibrosis, using genetic
loss-of-function cell line models. Finally, Aim 3 will work to identify a new pathway of interest for treatment, using
oleic acid as a mitochondrial metabolism modulator. Collectively, these aims will improve our overall
understanding of the processes underlying BPH/LUTS, with a special focus on aging, mitochondrial dysfunction,
and fibrosis. This proposal hopes to provide translational outcomes that can eventually improve patient care and
treatment options.
抽象的
较低的尿路症状(LUTS)对衰老的男性造成了明显的燃烧,通常是良性的
前列腺增生(BPH)。虽然BPH/LUTS通常在适当的医疗干预措施中并非致命,但
随着年龄的增长,许多男性的生活质量大大降低。此外,BPH/LUTS增加了风险
每年的死亡率和数十亿美元的医疗保健费用。目前有BPH/LUT的子集
失败FDA批准治疗的患者(α受体阻滞剂,5ARI),这些患者已被证明具有
前列腺纤维化增加。没有FDA批准的药物针对纤维化或衰老过程
BPH/LUTS,即使衰老是最大的危险因素。该建议旨在建立更好的理解
关于衰老,纤维化和线粒体功能障碍在BPH/LUTS中的作用。线粒体功能障碍是
衰老和纤维化的标志,与BPH/LUTS有关。初步的
数据表明氧化磷酸化(OXPHOS)是一种有助于细胞的线粒体途径
BPH/LUTS中的功能障碍。该提案的目标1旨在研究Oxphos之间的联系
新型小鼠模型中的破坏和较低的尿路功能障碍(LUTD)。该提议的目标2将
使用通用性研究Oxphos破坏与纤维化相关的途径之间的联系
功能丧失的单元线模型。最后,AIM 3将努力确定一种新的治疗途径
油酸作为线粒体代谢调节剂。总的来说,这些目标将改善我们的整体
了解BPH/LUTS的过程,特别关注衰老,线粒体功能障碍,
和纤维化。该建议希望提供转化结果,有时可以改善患者护理和
治疗选择。
