Abstract:
Objective To identify the nanobaeteria in prostate fluid of patients with CPPS.Methods Expressed prostatic secretion(EPS)and urine specimens were collected by Meares-Stamey way from CPPS patients(n=100)and normal controls(n=100).The specimens were cultured and nanobacteria was identified by indirect immunofluoreseenee staining with rnonoelonal antibody.The morphological features were observed by using transmission electron microscopy(TEM). Results The positive rate of nanobaeteria in the EPS cdture of CPPS patients and controls were 43% and 5% respectively,with significant statistical difference(X2=39.58,P<0.01).By TEM,the sizes of NB ranged from 100 to 500 nm and appeared eoccoid-ccccobacillary shape. Conclusion Nanobaeteria infection may exist in EPS of CPPS patients.
