Abstract

: One of the most prevalent prostatic diseases among young and middle-aged men is prostatitis. The prostate gland infections constitute a significant problem that affects men at all ages. Due to shortcomings in the diagnostic procedures, the prevalence of this type of prostate gland inflammation is still unknown. The goal of this investigation is to quantify the level of two anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory cytokines such as Interleukin 10 and Interleukin 1α, respectively in the framework of prostatic gland infections sickness. The result showed an increase of cytokine concentration (level) such as IL-10 and IL-1α in the serum of prostatitis patients. Average serum IL-10 and IL-1 α levels in serum of patients was 332.01± 9.07 and 54.55±7.69, respectively compared with control was 205.98±17.41 and 55.25±13.11. IL-10 and IL-1α concentrations in patient sera were significantly higher than those in control sera, respectively, and this demonstrated their significance .
