title: Treatment of bladder urothelium injury.
abstract: The management of patients with cystitis-related symptoms due to urinary tract infection, bladder pain syndrome (BPS) or radio/chemo-induced cystitis remains challenging. A component in the pathophysiology of these symptoms relates to the fact that the urothelium is a highly metabolically active structure and that alterations in this structure can give rise to a variety of symptoms.
