The Lamina Propria is responsible for the General of the Spontaneous Contractile Activity of the Urothelium/Lamina Propria

Research output: Contribution to conferenceAbstractResearchpeer-review

Abstract

ntroduction. Isolated strips of the urothelium and lamina propria (U&LP) develop spontaneous contractions which can be modulated through activation of the muscarinic and adrenergic receptor systems. However, the mechanisms underlying this activity are unknown and it is not clear how the apical urothelial layer influences the overall activity. Aims. This study aims to identify if the pacemakers in the isolated tissue samples can be inhibited through the blockade of gap junctions, c-Kit inhibition, or disruption to the urothelium.
