Project description:Urinary bladder wound healing is today pooorly chracterized. MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNA molecules with regulatory functions. In this study we aimed at identifying microRNAs expressed during bladder wound healing. We performed Affymetrix microRNA profiling of the rodent urinary bladder during healing of a surgically created wound.
Project description:We compared the chnages in urinary bladder and iliac lymph nodes microRNAs in the control and experimental autoimmune cystitis in mice. A set of urinary bladder microRNAs (miRNAs) shows profound upregulation or downregulation in the expression profiles of the experimental IC as compared to control.
Project description:Analysis of urinary bladder in wild-type C57BL/6 females sacrificed every 4 hours at six time points under constant darkness after acclimation for 2 weeks under 12-hour light and 12-hour dark conditions. Results provide insight into circadian gene expression patterns in normal urinary bladder. Analysis of urinary bladder in wild-type C57BL/6 females sacrificed every 4 hours at six time points (n=2 for each time (CT 0, 4, 8, 12 and 20)) under constant darkness after acclimation for 2 weeks under 12-hour light and 12-hour dark conditions.
Project description:The aim of this cDNA array study is to search for advanced markers related to the pathogenesis of arsenic-induced urinary bladder tumor. The result revealed a number of gene expressions involved in carcinogenic progression of mice urinary bladder.

Project description:Bilateral freezing of the pelvic ganglia in female rats were performed to denervate the urinary bladder. Sham operated rats were used as controls. The rats were sacrificed 10 days after surgery. The urinary bladders (including the urothelium) were frozen and used for RNA extraction.
