Oxidative Status and Lipofuscin Accumulation in Urothelial Cells of Bladder in Aging Mice
Age-related changes in various tissues have been associated with the onset of a number of age-related diseases, including inflammation and cancer. Bladder cancer, for instance, is a disease that mainly afflicts middle-aged or elderly people and is mostly of urothelial origin. Although research on age-related changes of long-lived post-mitotic cells such as neurons is rapidly progressing, nothin...
متن کاملHigh-Grade Urothelial Carcinoma of Bladder Transforming to Micropapillary Variant on Follow-Up
Micropapillary variant of urothelial carcinoma (UC) of the bladder is an aggressive tumour, comprising 0.6-6% of all UC. It generally presents with high-grade and stage, and has been reported as having a worse prognosis when compared to traditional UC. We report the case of a 58-year-old man who presented with macroscopic haematuria. The patient was diagnosed with high-grade urothelial carcinom...
متن کاملTesticular stereological and histological changes in an experimental murine model of visceral leishmaniasis
Background and Aim: Visceral leishmaniasis, a native disease in developing countries, can cause functional impairment in various organs, including the reproductive system, which can lead to infertility. The aim of this study was to evaluate the stereological, morphometric and morphological changes of testicular histoarchitecture in an experimental murine model of visceral leishmaniasis in BALB/...
متن کاملInduction of oxidative stress causes functional alterations in mouse urothelium via a TRPM8-mediated mechanism: implications for aging
The incidence of bladder conditions such as overactive bladder syndrome and its associated urinary incontinence is highly prevalent in the elderly. However, the mechanisms underlying these disorders are unclear. Studies suggest that the urothelium forms a 'sensory network' with the underlying innervation, alterations in which, could compromise bladder function. As the accumulation of reactive o...
متن کاملUrothelial lesion formation is mediated by TNFR1 during neurogenic cystitis.
Interstitial cystitis (IC) is a chronic bladder inflammatory disease of unknown etiology that shares similarities with Crohn's disease and psoriasis. IC, often regarded as a neurogenic cystitis, is associated with urothelial lesions that likely compromise the bladder permeability barrier and thereby contribute to patient morbidity. Here, we use a murine model of neurogenic cystitis to investiga...
