Especially, insufficient strength of the pelvic floor muscles including the urethral sphincter muscles causes urinary incontinence (UI). Thus, it is most important to understand the main mechanism causing UI and the relationship of UI with the urethral sphincter. Functionally and anatomically, the urethral sphincter is made up of the internal and the external sphincter. We highlight the basic and clinical anatomy of the internal and the external sphinc- ter and their clinical meaning. Understanding these relationships may provide a novel view in identifying the main mechanism causing UI and surgical techniques for UI.

Under the auspices of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (W.A.V.A.), the International Committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature (I.C.V.A.N.) appointed in Giessen, 1965, a Subcommittee on Histology and Embryology which started a working relation with the Subcommittee on Histology of the former International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. In Mexico City, 1971, this Subcommittee presented a document entitled Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft as a basis for the continued work of the newly-appointed Subcommittee on Histological Nomenclature. This resulted in the editing of the Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft II (Toulouse, 1974), followed by preparations for publication of a Nomina Histologica Veterinaria.

  • The Urinary System Dr
    The urinary System Dr. Ali Ebneshahidi Functions of the Urinary System • Excretion – removal of waste material from the blood plasma and the disposal of this waste in the urine. • Elimination – removal of waste from other organ systems - from digestive system – undigested food, water, salt, ions, and drugs. + - from respiratory system – CO2,H , water, toxins. - from skin – water, NaCl, nitrogenous wastes (urea , uric acid, ammonia, creatinine). • Water balance -- kidney tubules regulate water reabsorption and urine concentration. • regulation of PH, volume, and composition of body fluids. • production of Erythropoietin for hematopoieseis, and renin for blood pressure regulation. Anatomy of the Urinary System Gross anatomy: • kidneys – a pair of bean – shaped organs located retroperitoneally, responsible for blood filtering and urine formation. • Renal capsule – a layer of fibrous connective tissue covering the kidneys. • Renal cortex – outer region of the kidneys where most nephrons is located. • Renal medulla – inner region of the kidneys where some nephrons is located, also where urine is collected to be excreted outward. • Renal calyx – duct – like sections of renal medulla for collecting urine from nephrons and direct urine into renal pelvis. • Renal pyramid – connective tissues in the renal medulla binding various structures together. • Renal pelvis – central urine collecting area of renal medulla. • Hilum (or hilus) – concave notch of kidneys where renal artery, renal vein, urethra, nerves, and lymphatic vessels converge. • Ureter – a tubule that transport urine (mainly by peristalsis) from the kidney to the urinary bladder. • Urinary bladder – a spherical storage organ that contains up to 400 ml of urine. • Urethra – a tubule that excretes urine out of the urinary bladder to the outside, through the urethral orifice.

THE ROLE OF THE EXTERNAL SPHINCTER By J. COSBIE Ross Director of Urological Studies, University of Liverpool Introduction. It must be acknowledged that as yet no one knows the precise role of the external sphincter and there should, by right, be a question mark after the word 'sphincter'. The problem is much more complex and obscure than the simple, easily understood mechanism of the anal sphincter. However, there is much that is already known, and perhaps recent work has shed some light on the problem. First, the traditional view. In the 32nd Edition of Gray's Anatomy (1958), the description is as follows. 'The sphincter urethrae surrounds the membranous portion of the urethra, and lies deep to the inferior fascia of the urogenital diaphragm. Its superficial or inferior fibres arise in front from the transverse perineal ligament and from the neighbouring fascia. They pass backwards on each side of the urethra and converge on the perineal body for their insertion. Its deep fibres, some of which arise from the fascial sheath of the pudendal vessels and pass medially, form a continuous circular investment for the membranous urethra.' Actions. 'The muscles of both sides act together as a sphincter, compressing the membranous part of the urethra.

  • Single-Cell Transcriptome Profiling of the Kidney Glomerulus Identifies Key Cell Types and Reactions to Injury
    BASIC RESEARCH www.jasn.org Single-Cell Transcriptome Profiling of the Kidney Glomerulus Identifies Key Cell Types and Reactions to Injury Jun-Jae Chung ,1 Leonard Goldstein ,2 Ying-Jiun J. Chen,2 Jiyeon Lee ,1 Joshua D. Webster,3 Merone Roose-Girma,2 Sharad C. Paudyal,4 Zora Modrusan,2 Anwesha Dey,5 and Andrey S. Shaw1 Due to the number of contributing authors, the affiliations are listed at the end of this article. ABSTRACT Background The glomerulus is a specialized capillary bed that is involved in urine production and BP control. Glomerular injury is a major cause of CKD, which is epidemic and without therapeutic options. Single-cell transcriptomics has radically improved our ability to characterize complex organs, such as the kidney. Cells of the glomerulus, however, have been largely underrepresented in previous single-cell kidney studies due to their paucity and intractability. Methods Single-cell RNA sequencing comprehensively characterized the types of cells in the glomerulus from healthy mice and from four different disease models (nephrotoxic serum nephritis, diabetes, doxo- rubicin toxicity, and CD2AP deficiency). Results Allcelltypesintheglomeruluswereidentified using unsupervised clustering analysis. Novel marker genes and gene signatures of mesangial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells of the afferent and efferent arteri- oles, parietal epithelial cells, and three types of endothelial cells were identified. Analysis of the disease models revealed cell type–specific and injury type–specific responses in the glomerulus, including acute activation of the Hippo pathway in podocytes after nephrotoxic immune injury. Conditional deletion of YAP or TAZ resulted in more severe and prolonged proteinuria in response to injury, as well as worse glomerulosclerosis.
