TLDR Arachis hypogaea L. root extract reduces prostate enlargement and inflammation in mice.
The study investigates the effects of Arachis hypogaea L. root extract on testosterone propionate-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in ICR mice. The findings suggest that the root extract effectively mitigates BPH by suppressing inflammation, androgen receptors, and dihydrotestosterone levels. This indicates a potential therapeutic role for Arachis hypogaea L. root extract in managing BPH, highlighting its anti-inflammatory and anti-androgenic properties. The study provides a basis for further research into its application for BPH treatment.
