a-d Prostate tissue sections from sham group (panel a and c) showed regular shaped acini with an intact basement membrane. Prostatic inflammation in formalin injected group (panel b and d) caused epithelial pilling with budding into surrounding stroma at multiple foci. Expanded stromal area in formalin injected group showed inflammatory cells indicated by red colored * (panel b and d). Magnification in panel a and b is 10X and the region shown in white dotted line square region of panel a (sham) & b (prostatic inflammation) is magnified upto 4 fold and shown in panel c & d, respectively. e-f Bladder tissue sections obtained from sham group (panel e) showed no histological changes, whereas bladder from rat group with prostatic inflammation (panel f) showed slight edematous changes related to cytokine expression shown in Fig. 1b. Magnification is 20X in both panels
