Abstract: 【Abstract】Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a common urological disease. In the research progress of CP/CPPS treatment, it has been found that the regulation of oxidative stress andinflammation response through nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB), nuclear factor erythroid-2 related factor2 (Nrf2), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and other signaling pathways can reduce CP/CPPS symptoms. In recent years, it has been found that the regulation of forkhead box O (FOXO), silent informationregulator 1(Sirt1), extracellular signal-regulated kinase(Erk), ras homolog gene family member A(RhoA)/Rho-associated protein kinase 1(ROCK1) and other signaling pathways can relieve prostatic inflammationand pelvic pain, providing a new target for CP/CPPS treatment.
