Abstract
Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPSS) is a debilitating condition characterized by prostate inflammation, pain and urinary symptoms. The immune system's response to self-antigens is a contributing factor to CP/CPSS. In this review, we examine the use of experimental autoimmune prostatitis (EAP) in rodents to model salient features of autoimmune mediated CP/CPSS. By exploring etiological factors, immunological mechanisms, and emerging therapeutic strategies, our aim is to enhance our understanding of CP/CPSS pathogenesis and promote the development of strategies to test innovative interventions using the EAP pre-clinical model.
