摘要
锯叶棕果实提取物(SPE)作为一种植物药,在治疗良性前列腺增生(BPH)及其引起的下尿路症状(LUTS)方面应用广泛。近年研究发现SPE还对男科疾病如慢性前列腺炎、前列腺癌以及性功能障碍等具有治疗作用。本文在阐述SPE作用机制的基础上,综述了SPE在BPH、前列腺癌以及慢性前列腺炎/慢性骨盆疼痛综合征等疾病治疗中的应用。
Saw palmetto fruit extract ( SPE), as a herbal product, is widely used for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Recent studies show that SPE also has some therapeutic effects on chronic prostatitis, prostate cancer, sexual dysfunction, and so on. This article presents an overview on the application of SPE in the treatment of BPH, prostate cancer, and chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome, with a discussion on its action mechanisms.
