Abstract
Objectives
However, the pathogenesis and etiology of CP/CPPS are still poorly understood. Therefore, there is a need for further research through the Image J software to develop models capable of imitating the pathogenesis and etiology of CP/CPPS with different doses of the pathogenesis and the etiology of CP/CPPS is still poorly understood. The aim was to determine the area of the prostatic interstitium, the localization of the inflammation, and the impact of different doses on the group model.
Materials and methods
A total of 30 male ICR mice were randomly grouped into 5 (n = 6): 45 μg group = 6, 60 μg group = 6, 90 μg group = 6, 120 μg group = 6, 120 μg group = 6, control group = 6. With the exception of the control group, all the groups were immunized by injecting 0.2 mL of T2 peptide emulsion and immune adjuvant CFA to induce non-bacterial chronic prostatitis on days 0 and 14 of the mice and finally executed on day 28. All injections were administered subcutaneously. HE staining was used to evaluate changes in prostate pathology. Image J was used to calculate the area of the prostate interstitium, which represents the degree of prostate edema. To compare statistical differences between groups, the ANOVA test was used.
Results
From the perspective of pathological scoring, the 60 μg, 90 μg, and 120 μg groups had the highest scores using Image J to treat inflammatory cells. In addition, in the prostate interstitium area treated, it was found that the 90 μg group attained the largest prostate interstitial area as well as the highest degree of swelling.
Conclusions
From the results, Image J software is an effective tool in the calculating the surface of the prostatic interstitium and the specific localization of the inflammation.
