Ultrastructural study of an antibody-stabilized bladder surface: a new perspective on the elusive glycosaminoglycan layer.

Abstract:

:The thin mucus or glycosaminoglycan layer of the bladder may be implicated in the pathogenesis of many bladder disease states. We have developed a specific antimucus, antisera stabilization technique to study the ultrastructural morphological appearance of the layer in both normal and abnormal bladders that should provide a new perspective on this elusive layer.
