Abstract:
Autophagy is a basic cellular mechanism, which not only acts as a " housekeeper" in the normal physiological and biochemical processes of cells, but also participates in the occurrence and development of many diseases. Many studies have shown that autophagy is closely related to prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer. Autophagy plays an important role both in the onset of the disease and in the treatment of the disease. This article expounds the influence and mechanism of autophagy in prostate diseases, and provides new ideas and methods for the diagnosis and treatment of prostate diseases.
