About

bladder Description

The bladder collects the urine produced by the metanephros and stores it until its release through the urethra by contraction of the detrusor muscle of the bladder.
It is a multilayered organ comprised of an inner urothelial lining surrounded by a muscularis mucosa and interstitial, mesenchymal support cells and an outer smooth musclar layer, called the detrusor muscle, and enclosed by a serosa or adventitia.
Later in development, the bladder can be divided into three regions, the neck, trigone, and fundus.

Validated Anchor/Marker Genes

Anchors (0)

Anchor genes are defined as genes whose expression is restricted to one temporospatial anatomical compartment. These have been selected by microarray analyses followed by validation using section in-situ hybridisation.

Currently no defined anchor genes for this component

 

Markers (0)

Marker genes are defined as genes which display a regional or enriched expression pattern and may be useful in identifying one or more particular temporospatial compartment(s). These have been selected by microarray analyses followed by validation using section in-situ hybridisation.

Currently no defined marker genes for this component
