Abstract

This preliminary work concerns the morpho-functional action induced by Theophylline on bladder epithelium. The epithelium treated with Theophylline shows important structural variations. The whole tissue thickness appears reduced with cell disposed in monostratified layer. They show a light grade of swelling with nucleus and cytoplasm less evident and boundary less marked. It is important to note that the permeability of the epithelium does not appear modified.
