Protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes, when activated, are translocated to particulate membrane fractions for transport to the apical membrane surface in a variety of cell types. Evidence of PKC translocation was demonstrated in human megakaryoblastic leukemic cells, and in cardiac myocytes and fibroblasts, using FTTC immunofluorescent antibody labeling techniques. Recently, we reported immunogold localizations of PKC subtypes I and II in toad urinary bladder epithelia, following 60 min stimulation with Mezerein (MZ), a PKC activator, or antidiuretic hormone (ADH). Localization of isozyme subtypes I and n was carried out in separate grids using specific monoclonal antibodies with subsequent labeling with 20nm protein A-gold probes. Each PKC subtype was found to be distributed singularly and in discrete isolated patches in the cytosol as well as in the apical membrane domains. To determine if the PKC isozymes co-localized within the cell, a double immunogold labeling technique using single grids was utilized.

The most common cause of pneumoperitoneum in trauma patients is hollow viscus injury; however, in patients with pneumoperitoneum on imaging and normal hollow viscus during the laparotomy, other rare causes of pneumoperitoneum like intraperitoneal urinary bladder rupture should be ruled out. Urinary bladder can rupture either extraperitoneally or intraperitoneally or both. Rupture of the urinary bladder is commonly seen in patients with abdominal trauma; however, pneumoperitoneum is usually not seen in patients with traumatic bladder rupture. Intraperitoneal bladder rupture is usually due to the sudden rise in intra-abdominal pressure following abdominal or pelvic trauma. However, it is a rare cause of pneumoperitoneum and is managed by surgical repair. We present a case of blunt trauma abdomen with pneumoperitoneum due to isolated intraperitoneal bladder rupture who was managed by exploratory laparotomy and primary repair of the urinary bladder.

In newborn rats the mother provokes the emptying of the urinary bladder by stimulating the perineum with her tongue. The possibility that mothers may thereby ingest the urine of their young has been studied by means of 131I on nine litters of rats aged 10 to 29 days. The results indicate that a considerable quantity of 131I administered intraperitoneally to 10- and 18-day-old rats, which were then reunited with their mothers for 4 hours, reappears in the organism of uninjected nurslings after passing through the organism of the mother. The amount of 131I transferred from injected rats into the bodies of isolated uninjected rats of the same litter decreased during the period of weaning. The observed recirculation of 131I between immature rats and their mothers in both directions may represent a saving mechanism which might include several other substances and would compensate for their loss via the milk, and suggests a new aspect of maternal–neonatal interrelationship which appears as a continuation of the state existing in utero.

Objective: The objective of the study was to determine the frequency of maternal outcome in obstructed labour. Study Design: Descriptive Case Series. Setting: Labour Ward of Nishtar Hospital Multan, Pakistan. Period: 01-11-2018 to 30-04-2019. Material & Methods: Two hundred and forty two clinically diagnosed cases of obstructed labour admitted in labour ward of Nishtar Hospital Multan were enrolled for the study. Patients were monitored till delivery (vaginal/caesarean section) and complication of pregnancy were assessed till six week postpartum. Outcome variables i.e. complications like sepsis, uterine rupture, bladder rupture, vesicovaginal fistula, postpartum haemorrhage, and mortality was noted. Data was analyzed by using SPSS version 10.0. Results: The majority of women was in age group 20-29 years i.e. 42.97% and were primigravida. Sepsis was the most frequent maternal complication observed i.e. in 22.31% of cases. Postpartum haemorrhage was next in line i.e. in 19.42% of cases. Uterine and bladder rupture was a finding in 16.94% and 7.02% of cases respectively. Vesicovaginal fistula was recorded in 12 (4.95%) patients and there were 1 (4.54%) maternal deaths during the study period. Conclusion: Obstructed labour is an important and preventable cause of both maternal morbidity and mortality and needs to be addressed adequately with provision of better antenatal, intrapartum, and postnatal care.
