PURPOSE: To compare integration of bladder acellular matrix (BAM) with the bladder when seeded with mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and when MSC are injected intravenously (IV). METHODS: MSCs were isolated from bone marrow of EPM-1 Wistar male rats. Female rats were distributed into: Group A-BAM augmentation; Group B-BAM augmentation and MSCs IV administered; Group C-BAM-MSC seeded augmentation. Animals were killed on postoperative days 7, 14 and 28. Morphological analyses were performed using hematoxylin and eosin and Masson's trichrome, in addition to immunohistochemical staining with α-SMA and neurofilament for assessment of tissue repair. RNAm expression of the SRY gene was used to mark MSCs in the rats killed on postoperative day 28. RESULTS: The muscle layer was best repaired in Groups B and C. No difference in the repair of the urothelium in the animals in any of the three groups was found. Group B presented the smallest inflammatory reaction and the best neural repair on postoperative day 28. None of the animals examined had MSCs in their bladder graft. CONCLUSION: The MSCs were able to improve repair of the muscle layer and when injected intravenously, they were noted to initiate the neuronal regeneration process.
