The human and murine prostate glands have similar functional roles in the generation of seminal fluid to assist in reproduction. There are significant differences in the anatomy and histology of murine and human prostate and knowledge of the normal anatomy and histology of the murine prostate is essential to interpreting changes in genetically engineered mouse models. In this review, the normal anatomy and histology of both human and mouse prostate will be described.
人类和鼠类的前列腺在生成精液以辅助生殖方面具有相似的功能作用。鼠类和人类的前列腺在解剖结构和组织学上存在显著差异,了解鼠类前列腺的正常解剖结构和组织学对于解释基因工程小鼠模型中的变化至关重要。在这篇综述中,将描述人类和鼠类前列腺的正常解剖结构和组织学。
