Human epidemiological studies suggest associations between acetylator phenotype and aromatic amine-induced tumors. The aromatic amine carcinogen 3,2'-dimethyl-4-aminobiphenyl (DMABP) induces colon, prostate, and urinary bladder tumors in the rat, and a rapid and slow acetylator rat model has been characterized. The formation of DNA adducts has been used as a valuable biomarker in tumorigenesis. In order to examine the relationship between the acetylation polymorphism and aromatic amine-induced cancer, DNA adducts were measured in three target organs (colon, prostate, and urinary bladder) and two nontarget organs (liver and heart) of male rapid (F344) and slow (WKY) acetylator inbred rats administered DMABP. Two DMABP-DNA adducts, N-(deoxyguanosin-8-yl)-DMABP (C8-DMABP) and 5-(deoxyguanosin-N2-yl)-DMABP (N2-DMABP), were identified in each target and nontarget organ examined. C8-DMABP-DNA adduct levels were highest in liver and were dose related in liver, colon, urinary bladder, and prostate. DMABP-DNA adduct levels were significantly higher in the prostate and urinary bladder of slow acetylator vs rapid acetylator rats. These studies suggest that DMABP-induced DNA damage is acetylator phenotype-dependent in urinary bladder and prostate, two target organs for DMABP-induced tumorigenesis in the rat.

Contribution of the Microbiome to Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome: A Mini Review.

Eur Urol Focus

Interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS) is a chronic and debilitating condition characterized by pelvic pain and urinary urgency and frequency with an unclear etiology. Emerging evidence implicates microbiome dysbiosis-disruptions in the microbial communities inhabiting the body-in IC/BPS pathophysiology. This review synthesizes the literature on microbial alterations in IC/BPS, including urinary, vaginal, and gastrointestinal microbiota, and their interactions with host inflammatory and metabolic pathways.

Purpose: Urinary cytokine changes may serve as biomarkers to assess treatment outcomes for interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS). This study analyzed the changes in urinary cytokines following various bladder therapies and explored their clinical significance in therapeutic mechanisms.

Methods: A total of 122 patients with IC/BPS treated with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), botulinum toxin-A (BoTN-A), hyaluronic acid (HA), or low-energy shock wave (LESW) were evaluated.

Department of Urology, Affiliated Yancheng Hospital, School of Medicine, Southeast University, Yancheng, Jiangsu, China.

Background: The relationship between serum total bilirubin (STB) concentrations and the risk of overactive bladder (OAB) remains uncertain. This study aims to explore the potential connection between STB and OAB.

Method: We utilized data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database for the years 2001-2020.

Objectives: To assess long-term outcomes (up to 10 cycles) of repeated intradetrusor botulinum toxin (BoNT) utilisation in multiple sclerosis (MS) and idiopathic overactive bladder (OAB).

Materials And Methods: This is a retrospective, international, multi-centre, observational cohort study of patients diagnosed with MS and neurogenic OAB and treated with intradetrusor BoNT between January 2005 and January 2020 (just prior to COVID-19 interruption). Dose, efficacy, duration of effect, International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Overactive Bladder (ICIQ-OAB) and International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Urinary Incontinence (ICIQ-UI) measures and complication rates were recorded.
