The reabsorption of creatinine from the rabbit bladder. 1975

D Völter, and B Schmidt

Using a radioisotope technique the reabsorption of creatinine from normal, inflamed and chronically obstructed bladders of rabbits was investigated. The reabsorption of creatinine from normal bladders was minimal. Chronic obstruction lead to a rise of the reabsorption rate. The most marked reabsorption however was found with the inflamed bladders. This difference of creatinine reabsorption is statistically significant and it was detectable in the 14C-creatinine content of the blood, 14C-creatinine content of the renal pelvis urine and in the activity loss in the bladder urine. The vesical reabsorption of creatinine corresponds in principle with the urea reabsorption which was investigated earlier by the same method. The extent of reabsorption is however different and urea is reabsorbed to a substantially greater extent.

D001743	Urinary Bladder	A musculomembranous sac along the URINARY TRACT. URINE flows from the KIDNEYS into the bladder via the ureters (URETER), and is held there until URINATION.

D003556	Cystitis	Inflammation of the URINARY BLADDER, either from bacterial or non-bacterial causes. Cystitis is usually associated with painful urination (dysuria), increased frequency, urgency, and suprapubic pain.	Cystitides
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D014508	Urea	A compound formed in the liver from ammonia produced by the deamination of amino acids. It is the principal end product of protein catabolism and constitutes about one half of the total urinary solids.	Basodexan,Carbamide,Carmol
