Bladder carcinogenesis in rats subjected to ureterosigmoidostomy and treated with L-lysine

Abstract: Objective: to evaluate the effect of L-lysine in the bladder and intestinal epithelia in rats submitted to vesicosigmoidostomy. Methods: we divided forty Wistar rats into four groups: group I -control group (Sham); group II -submitted to vesicosigmoidostomy and treated with L-lysine 150mg/kg; group III -submitted only to vesicosigmoidostomy; and group IV -received L-lysine 150mg/kg. After eight weeks the animals were sacrificed. Results: in the bladders of all operated animals we observed simple, papillary and… Show more

“…Similar reductions in the number of goblet cells and mucins were decribed in studies on cystoplasties and urinary diversions in humans 24,28 and animal experiments 29,30. Acid mucin reduction has also been observed in the descending colon of rats submitted to chemical carcinogenesis 31 .…”

“…On the other hand, L -lysine failed to promote carcinogenesis in a rat model of bladder cancer submitted to ureterosigmoidostomy and vesico-sigmoidostomy. ( 32 , 33 ) However, L -lysine accelerated the development of transitional metaplasia in intestinal epithelium in rats submitted to cystoplasty. ( 34 )…”
