Heterotopic Urinary Bladders in Rats Produced by an Isograft Inoculum of Bladder Fragments and Air1
نویسندگان
چکیده
A pseudobladder is formed by inoculating rats s.c. with a combination of rat bladder fragments and air. Within 1 month a cyst is produced that is lined completely by normal-appear ing urothelium. The heterotopic pseudobladder persists for as long as 6 months. In some 6-month-old bladder walls, foci of bone formation are found in the stroma underlying the urothelium. The lining epithelium at all stages from 1 to 6 months is characteristic of normal urothelium by light and electron microscopic criteria.

The heterotopic urinary bladder with a communicating reservoir is a potentially useful model for bladder carcinogenesis studies. As a test of whether such bladders will develop transitional cell carcinomas after chronic carcinogenic stimuli, two carcinogens, N-methyl-N-nitrosourea and N-butyl-N-(3-carboxypropyl)nitrosamine, were instilled repeatedly into the reservoir connected with the heterot...

Introduction: Some postgraduate students reported the presence of a nematode infection, presumably, Trichosomoides crassicauda in the urinary bladder of rats (Rattus norvegicus) from the animal house of Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS). We prompted to explore the prevalence of this infection among the rats of animal houses belonging to medical and veterinary research centers in Tehr...
