The complex role of telocytes in female prostate tumorigenesis in a rodent model

Abstract: The prostate is not an organ exclusive to the male. It is also found in females of several species, including humans, in which part of the Skene gland is homologous to the male prostate. Evidence is accumulating that changes in the stroma are central to tumorigenesis. Equally, telocytes, a recently discovered type of interstitial cell, are essential for the maintenance of stromal organization. However, it is still uncertain whether there are telocytes in the female prostate and if they play a role in tumorigen… Show more

“…Thus telocytes were able to stimulate the regeneration and repair of intrauterine adhesions in a paracrine fashion. Another recent study by Maldarine et al [7] experimented with a rodent tumorigenesis model in paraurethral Skene's glands (so called "female prostate") to determine the role of telocytes in this condition. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first published paper on telocytes in this location.…”
