Abstract:
Purpose To clarify the morphologic changes and significance of interstitial cells of Cajal-like cells in the bladder of diabetic guinea pig.Methods The experimental guinea pigs were induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin(STZ).The diabetic guinea pig model, who were made succesful for 4 weeks, were detected through the urodynamic evaluation.The distribution of ICCs-like cells in the detrusor, which were taken from these guinea pigs,were quantitatively analyzed after frozen section and indirect immunofluorescence methods and observed by electron microscopy.Results In the diabetic group, the maximum detrusor pressure was signifently lower than controls (P＜0.01), maximum bladder capacity, compliance, residual volume and leak point pressures was significently higer than controls (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01);In detrusor, compared with control, the ICCs-like cells of diabetes group showed significently decreased in quantity. In diabetic bladder, the quantity of gap junctions between ICCs-like cells and cells around,such as smoth muscle cells,terminal nerves and other ICCs-like cells,decreased significently.And more cavities and less organoids occurred in cytoplasm of diabetic ICCs-like cells. Mitochondria became swollen or even disapeared, accompanied with swollen endocytoplasmic reticulum.Conclusion The decrease and injures of ICCs-like cells in bladder may be one of the mechanisms resulting in urodynamic changes of diabetic cystopathy.
