Mechanosensitive Hydrolysis of ATP and ADP in Lamina Propria of the Murine Bladder by Membrane-Bound and Soluble Nucleotidases

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Prior studies suggest that urothelium-released adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) has a prominent role in bladder mechanotransduction. Urothelial ATP regulates the micturition cycle through activation of purinergic receptors that are expressed in many cell ...

Fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 activation plays a causative role in urothelial cancer pathogenesis in cooperation with Pten loss in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Although somatic mutations and overexpression of the tyrosine kinase fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) are strongly associated with bladder cancer, evidence for their functional involvement in the pathogenesis remains elusive.

TRPA1 channel mediates methylglyoxal-induced mouse bladder dysfunction

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Introduction: The transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 channel (TRPA1) is expressed in urothelial cells and bladder nerve endings. Hyperglycemia in diabetic individuals induces accumulation of the highly reactive dicarbonyl compound methylglyoxal (MGO),

Loss of Janus Associated Kinase 1 Alters Urothelial Cell Function and Facilitates the Development of Bladder Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Inherited Primary Immunodeficiency (PID) disorders are associated with increased risk of malignancy that may relate to impaired antitumor immune responses or a direct role for PID germline mutations in tumorigenesis.

Two case reports of mixed epithelial and stromal renal tumor of kidney in children and literature review analysis

open access: yesIndian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2023
Mixed epithelial and stromal tumor of the kidney (MESTK) occurs almost exclusively in perimenopausal women while rarely in children. Only five pediatric patients have been described previously. Herein, we report a girl and a boy with MESTK, aged 3- and 4-

Purinergic receptor mediated calcium signalling in urothelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Non-neuronal ATP released from the urothelium in response to bladder stretch is a key modulator of bladder mechanosensation. Whilst non-neuronal ATP acts on the underlying bladder afferent nerves to facilitate sensation, there is also the potential for ...

TUMORS OF THE UPPER UROTHELIUM [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Roentgenology, 1975
Forty-two cases of malignant tumors of renal pelvis were reviewed: 28 were transitional cell carcinomas; and 14 were squamous cell carcinomas.The natural history and spread of the disease is discussed in detail. Transitional cell carcinomas spread primarily to the ureter (40 per cent), followed closely by the renal bed (33 per cent) and bladder (30 per

Invasive Bladder Cancer With Peritoneal Invasion and Rectal Involvement Causing Rectal, Bilateral Ureteral, and Common Bile Duct Obstruction Without a Retroperitoneal Mass: A Case Report. [PDF]

open access: yesIJU Case Rep
ABSTRACT Introduction Bladder cancer (BC) is rarely associated with common bile duct (CBD) obstruction. We report a case of BC with peritoneal invasion and rectal involvement complicated by bilateral ureteral and biliary obstruction. Case Presentation A 77‐year‐old man presented with abdominal pain.
