ABSTRACT Slices of the lateral lobe of hypertrophied human prostate were incubated with tritium labelled testosterone or oestradiol. After adding non-labelled testosterone in excess there was a marked reduction in uptake of tritiated testosterone, but neither non-radioactive oestradiol nor the antiandrogenically active Cyproterone acetate® had any effect on uptake of radioactivity. After pre-incubation with testosterone, oestradiol or Cyproterone acetate®, followed by washing and reincubation with tritiated testosterone, no blocking effect could be demonstrated. Addition of non-radioactive oestradiol in excess did not affect the uptake of tritiated oestradiol. In the seminal vesicles and ventral prostate of the immature rat there was an accumulation of tritiated testosterone as compared to the diaphragm. Non-radioactive testosterone in excess reduced this uptake in the target tissue.

Pseudostratified Epithelium

It is well known that epithelial hyperplasia (benign hypertrophy) is common in the aging prostate of dogs and man. In contrast, little evidence is available for abnormal epithelial cell growth in seminal vesicles of aging animals. Recently, enlarged seminal vesicles were reported in senescent mice, however, that enlargement resulted from increased storage of secretion in the lumen and occurred concomitant to epithelial hypoplasia in that species.The present study is concerned with electron microscopic observations of changes occurring in the pseudostratified epithelium of the seminal vescles of aging rats. Special attention is given to certain non-epithelial cells which have entered the epithelial layer.

As previously reported (1, 2) phosphorylcholine (PC) is a specific substrate for prostatatic acid phosphatase (PAP) as opposed to other acid phosphatases, e.g., lysosomal acid phosphatase. The specificity of PC for PAP is due to the pentavalent nitrogen in PC, a feature that renders PC resistant to hydrolysis by all other acid phosphatases. Detailed comparative cytochemical results in rat tissues are in press. This report deals with ultracytochemical results applying the method to normal and pathological human prostate gland.Fresh human prostate was obtained from 7 patients having transurethral resections or radical prostatectomies. The tissue was fixed in 3% glutaraldehyde- 0.1 M cacodylate buffer (pH 7.4) for 15 min, sectioned at 50 μm on a Sorvall TC-2 tissue sectioner, refixed for a total of 2 hr, and rinsed overnight in 0.1 M cacodylate buffer (pH 7.4)-7.5% sucrose.
