Gut uropathogen abundance is a risk factor for development of bacteriuria and urinary tract infection

Nature Communications, 2019
The origin of most bacterial infections in the urinary tract is often presumed to be the gut. Herein, we investigate the relationship between the gut microbiota and future development of bacteriuria and urinary tract infection (UTI).

A Clinical and Finite Elements Study of Stress Urinary Incontinence in Women Using Fluid-Structure Interactions [PDF]

, 2017
Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) or urine leakage from urethra occurs due to an increase in abdominal pressure resulting from stress like a cough or jumping height. SUI is more frequent among post-menopausal women. In the absence of bladder contraction, vesical pressure exceeds from urethral pressure leading to urine leakage. Despite a large number of

Aberrant expression of nuclear prothymosin α contributes to epithelial‐mesenchymal transition in lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Nuclear prothymosin α inhibits epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in lung cancer by increasing Smad7 acetylation and competing with Smad2 for binding to SNAI1, TWIST1, and ZEB1 promoters. In early‐stage cancer, ProT suppresses TGF‐β‐induced EMT, while its loss in the nucleus in late‐stage cancer leads to enhanced EMT and poor prognosis.
