Abstract

A single injection of beta-estradiol 17-cypionate into the mice within 5 hr after birth induced inflammation in all prostate lobes and the seminal vesicles. Neutrophils emigrated into the lumen through the basal lamina and epithelium of the seminal vesicle and the anterior prostate. Local infiltration of lymphocytes was observed in the stroma and epithelium of ventral prostates. Lymphocytes penetrated through smooth muscle cells into epithelium. This could support the hypothesis that smooth muscle cells are the target of the estrogen action of prostates in estrogenized animals.
