pubmed:abstractText |
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the non-malignant, uncontrolled growth of glandular and stromal elements of the prostate gland. Lipid extracts from Saw palmetto (Arecaceae) fruits are widely used to treat BPH. The Cuban royal palm (Roystonea regia) is a member of the same family. Previous studies have found that D-004, a lipid extract from the R. regia fruit, administered orally at 200-800 mg/day for 14 days, prevented testosterone- but not dihydrotestosterone-induced prostate hyperplasia in rats.
