Role of ERK signaling in bladder urothelium in response to cyclophosphamide injury
Physiological Reports, 2022 Mice with inducible urothelial deletion of fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (ShhCreERT2;Fgfr2Fl/Fl) injured with cyclophosphamide had aberrant basal cell endoreplication and poor regeneration.

Recurrent Urinary Tract Infection: A Mystery in Search of Better Model Systems
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common infectious diseases worldwide but are significantly understudied. Uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) accounts for a significant proportion of UTI, but a large number of other species can infect the ...

Aging-Associated Changes in Oxidative Stress Negatively Impacts the Urinary Bladder Urothelium [PDF]
International Neurourology Journal, 2022 Purpose Lower urinary tract symptoms are known to significantly increase with age, negatively impacting quality of life and self-reliance. The urothelium fulfills crucial tasks, serving as a barrier protecting the underlying bladder tissue from the harsh

Signalling Molecules in the Urothelium [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2014 The urothelium was long considered to be a silent barrier protecting the body from the toxic effects of urine. However, today a number of dynamic abilities of the urothelium are well recognized, including its ability to act as a sensor of the intravesical environment. During recent years several pathways of these urothelial abilities have been proposed
