Abstract

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) is a common disease among elderly men, for which safe and effective treatment strategies remain limited. The aim of the present study was to explore the potential effects of phosphodiesterase 5A3 (PDE5A3) silencing on human prostate smooth muscle cells (HPSMCs). HPSMCs were initially obtained from patients with BPH/LUTS. Short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting the PDE5A3 gene was subsequently transfected into cultured HPSMCs. The expression of PDE5A3 was measured using reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR and western blotting. cGMP levels were then measured using western blotting and immunocytochemical staining and intracellular Ca2+ concentration was measured using rhod2‑AM in HPSMCs after transfection. HPSMC proliferation was also observed within 4 days. Cells transfected with PDE5A3‑shRNA2 exhibited the most notable decline in PDE5A3 expression compared with that in the Control or NC groups. cGMP levels in HPSMCs transfected with PDE5A3‑shRNA2 was significantly increased compared with those in the Control or NC groups, whereas intracellular Ca2+ concentrations in cells in the PDE5A3‑shRNA2 group were decreased compared with that in the Control or NC groups. The proliferation of HPSMCs in the PDE5A3‑shRNA2 group was also inhibited compared with that in the Control or NC groups after 72 h of culture. In conclusion, shRNA‑mediated silencing of PDE5A3 was able to increase the levels of cGMP whilst reducing the concentration of Ca2+ in HPSMCs, in turn suppressing their proliferation. These findings may potentially provide a novel therapeutic target for treating BPH/LUTS.
