Enhanced binding of modified pentosan polysulfate and heparin to bladder--a strategy for improved treatment of interstitial cystitisArivalagan Muthusamy
Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine, Hershey, Pennsylvania, USA
Urology 67:209-13. 2006..Other possible applications of this approach include modification of intravesical chemotherapeutic agents for bladder cancer, or intravesically placed antibiotics, to improve their adherence and retention in the bladder...

Molecular size affects urine excretion of pentosan polysulfateDeborah R Erickson
Department of Surgery, Division of Urology, University of Kentucky College of Medicine, Lexington, Kentucky 40536 0298, USA
J Urol 175:1143-7. 2006..In human subjects only a small percent of oral PPS is found in urine. Commercially available PPS is a heterogeneous mixture with varying molecular weights. Our hypothesis was that only the low molecular weight fraction reaches the urine...

Department of Surgery Division of Urology, Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine, Hershey, PA, USA
J Urol 172:2256-60. 2004..We determined whether urine methylhistamine (MH) is associated with other clinical features and bladder biopsy findings in interstitial cystitis (IC)...
