Methods: In the present study, we analyzed the expression of Sg I in normal seminal vesicle tissues and seminal vesiculitis tissues through immunohistochemistry. Results: The results showed down-regulated expression of clusterin at protein level in seminal vesiculitis tissues compared with normal seminal vesicle tissues. Our preliminary data suggest that the abnormal expression of clusterin is closely related to seminal vesiculitis. Downregulation of Sg I expression may weaken the antibacterial activity of the seminal vesicle and then induce the occurrence of disease. Conclusion: This is the first study to focus on the relationship between Sg I and human seminal vesiculitis.
