Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is known to be associated with sleep disturbance and inflammation. The objective of the study was to assess the levels of serum MMP-9 and its inhibitor (TIMP-1), interleukin-23 and pentraxin-3 and their association with sleep quality index and prostate size in BPH patients. Eighty-eight BPH patients were recruited based on clinical and ultrasound findings. MMP-9 and its inhibitor (TIMP-1), interleukin-23 and pentraxin-3 were estimated in all the subjects. Sleep quality was assessed using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PQSI). Interleukin-23 was significantly correlated with prostate size (p = 0.031), TIMP-1 (p = 0.035), MMP-9 (p = 0.004) and PSQI score (p = 0.020). TIMP-1 was significantly correlated with MMP-9 (p = 0.006) and prostate size (p = 0.016). Pentraxin-3 was positively correlated with PSQI score (p = 0.047). Multivariate analysis shows that interleukin -23 (p = 0.006) predicts prostate enlargement in BPH patients. Interleukin-23 was significantly increased in BPH patients with PSQI score >9 compared to those with PSQI <9. We conclude that poor sleep quality contributes to inflammation in BPH. Inflammation leads to prostate enlargement in patients with BPH.
