Ureter with Special Reference to Cell Kinetics
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present study aimed at clarifying the cell kinetics of the mouse ureteral epithelium by focusing on vesicle maturation in the cells and labeling with bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU). Electron microscopically, superficial cells were characterized by concave plaques in the apical plasma membrane and numerous fusiform vesicles in the cytoplasm. Intermediate cells were laden with ellipsoid vesicles, and basal cells had a few or no round vesicles. From the difference in number and form of vesicles among the three types of cells, it can be inferred that intermediate cells are immature in comparison with superficial cells, and likewise basal cells in comparison with intermediate cells. When BrdU was injected intraperitoneally once a day for seven days, most BrdU-labeled cells were located in the basal layer. Twelve days after the last injection, BrdU was detected in the intermediate or superficial layer in addition to the basal layer. These findings suggest that the basal cell is a progenitor cell giving rise to daughter cells that migrate upward to replace intermediate and superficial cells.

A case report of a bifid ureter and renal pelvis
Background: Double ureter is one of the anomaly of urethra that appears complete or incomplete. Incomplete duplication of ureter is known as bifid ureter, this kind of anomaly may be formed due to some error or disturbance in development of the ureteric bud which arises from the mesonephric duct around the 5th week. The ureteric bud grows and penetrates in to the metanephric tissue at about32co...

Sarcomatoid carcinoma is a high‑grade rare malignant tumor with both epithelial and mesenchymal components. Sarcomatoid carcinoma in the upper urinary tract is very rare. We reported here a case of sarcomatoid carcinoma of renal pelvis with osteosarcomatous differentiation, with involvement of the ureter and renal parenchyma in a 68-year-old female. Histologically, predominant pleomorphic spind...

Introduction: In this study, we explore in detail cell-specific targeting efficacy of nano-photo-thermal therapy (NPTT) method and the resulting responses that are induced by variable laser intensities and exposure times in cancer cells to induce selective apoptosis. We delineate the synthesis of a high-yielding synthetic F-AuNPs by tailoring the surface of gold nanoparticles ...

Effect of Mechanical Activation on the Kinetics of Ammoniacal Thiosulfate Leaching of a Refractory Oxide Gold Ore
The effect of mechanical activation on the kinetics of ammoniacal thiosulfate leaching of a refractory oxide gold ore containing 2.8 ppm Au was investigated. The gold extraction of 99.81% was achieved by 16 h leaching of a sample mechanically activated for 60 minutes. The gold extraction observed for a similar reference sample without mechanical activation was only 55%. Studies revealed that le...
