Effect of BBR on body and prostate tissue weights.

	NC	BPH	BBR	Fi
Body weight (g)	466.37 ± 18.22	416.93 ± 13.42	412.70 ± 10.98	422.83 ± 9.16
Prostate weight (mg)	583.33 ± 53.00	1456.67 ± 35.47#	1186.67 ± 50.60*	643.33 ± 67.50*
Prostate index	117.72 ± 11.75	349.78 ± 7.57#	287.20 ± 4.80*	152.04 ± 14.89*

Values are mean ± SD of data from three separate experiments. Prostate index was calculated dividing body weight of the rat (100 g) by the prostate weight (mg). ^#P < 0.05 when compared to NC; ^∗P < 0.05 when compared to BPH. NC, normal control group; BPH, TP-induced BPH group; BBR, BBR-treated BPH group; Fi, Fi-treated BPH group.
