- W4384106286 abstract "The study of novel interstitial cells in the tissues of the urinary tract has defined advances in the field in the last decade. These intriguing cells belong to the same family as the better known interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) of the gastrointestinal tract, and their discovery has been interpreted to suggest that pacemaker cells may be present in the urinary tract, driving the spontaneous or myogenic activity of the neighboring smooth muscle. This scenario may be true for the urethra where ICC have been described as “loose pacemakers” providing multiple, random inputs to modulate urethral smooth muscle activity. However, there is a paucity of direct evidence available to support this hypothesis in the bladder (where the smooth muscle cells are spontaneously active) or the renal pelvis (where atypical smooth muscle cells are the pacemakers), and it now seems more likely that urinary tract ICC act as modulators of smooth muscle activity. Interestingly, the literature suggests that the role of urinary tract ICC may be more apparent in pathophysiological conditions such as the overactive bladder. Several reports have indicated that the numbers of ICC present in overactive bladder tissues are greater than those from normal tissues; moreover, the contractility of tissues from overactive bladders in vitro appears to be more sensitive to the Kit antagonist, glivec, than those from normal bladder. Future research on urinary tract ICC in the short to medium term is likely to be dynamic and exciting and will lead to increasing our understanding of the roles of these cells in both normal and dysfunctional bladder." @default.
