The Urothelium: Life in a Liquid Environment
The urothelium, which lines the renal pelvis, ureters, urinary bladder, and proximal urethra, forms a high-resistance but adaptable barrier that surveils its mechanochemical environment and communicates changes to underlying tissues including afferent nerve fibers and the smooth muscle.

Expression and functional role of β-adrenoceptors in the human urinary bladder urothelium [PDF]
浜松医科大学博士(医学)浜松医科大学学位論文 医博論第456号(平成20年7月18日)doctoral医学系研究科We investigated the presence of β-adrenoceptor subtypes in human urinary bladder urothelium and examined whether β-adrenoceptors in the urothelium modulate the relaxation responses of isolated ...

Role of the urothelium in bladder function
Scandinavian Journal of Urology and Nephrology, 2004Historically, the urinary bladder urothelium has been viewed as a passive barrier; however, recent evidence has demonstrated that the urothelium is a responsive structure, which exhibits both "sensor" (i.e. ability to respond to thermal, mechanical and chemical stimuli) and "transducer" (i.e. ability to release chemicals) functions.

Mechanotransduction in the urothelium
2023The urothelium, which covers the inner surface of the bladder, is continuously exposed to a complex physical environment where it is stimulated by and responds to a wide range of mechanical cues. Mechanically activated ion channels allow the urothelium to convert mechanical stimuli into biochemical events that influence its surface area and the ...

Development, regeneration and tumorigenesis of the urothelium
Development, 2022ABSTRACT The urothelium of the bladder functions as a waterproof barrier between tissue and outflowing urine. Largely quiescent during homeostasis, this unique epithelium rapidly regenerates in response to bacterial or chemical injury. The specification of the proper cell types during development and injury repair is crucial for tissue ...

Formation and regeneration of the urothelium
Current Opinion in Organ Transplantation, 2014This review addresses significant changes in our understanding of urothelial development and regeneration. Understanding urothelial differentiation will be important in the push to find new methods of bladder reconstruction and augmentation, as well as identification of bladder cancer stem cells.This review will cover recent findings including the ...
