Schematic diagram of the working model for inhibitory effects of Pao extract on BPH tissues. BPH is characterized as the excessive proliferation of both epithelial and stromal cells in prostate. In both cell populations, Pao extract not only up-regulates the pro-apoptotic genes and induces apoptosis, but also inhibits the NFκB signaling and induces the inflammatory and ECM-associated genes expression via reducing phosphorylation of NFκB subunit RelA
