因人而異,膀胱/尿袋 (Urinary Bladder)一般來說可以儲存300-500ml尿液。982Please respect copyright.PENANApx0WANfccu
982Please respect copyright.PENANA9rCL0VqNp3
982Please respect copyright.PENANAZMBoma6rdH
尿液的其中一個功能,就是將體內的毒素或細菌排出,而膀胱經常有大量尿液儲存,為罪惡的蘊藏之所,體內的警署。982Please respect copyright.PENANAT3P5SfL3Nf
982Please respect copyright.PENANA8Y7I11kntS
想深一層,身體的細菌經由尿液聚首一堂,膀胱豈不是非常容易令受到感染?982Please respect copyright.PENANAHlV5uxBuoE
982Please respect copyright.PENANAYctYsXjfI3
(致病的細菌及毒素亦可從糞便排出)982Please respect copyright.PENANAkcPNS0sHEq

(圖2)尿調理素(Uromodulin/Tamm–Horsfall Protein)是尿液其中一種常見的主要蛋白,主要在腎臟管道生產。982Please respect copyright.PENANAq11W6OTCpx

982Please respect copyright.PENANAsDbGpfCc8X
它被認定為有抵禦細菌感染的作用,但一直以來也沒有充分的證據得以證明。982Please respect copyright.PENANAtcx3gTfCwe
982Please respect copyright.PENANAGp1m3FNwCe
近日,有科學家利用最新的電子顯微鏡技術及各種實驗輔證(Ref1),終於確立得到尿調理素抵禦細菌感染的功能。982Please respect copyright.PENANAmI26BqEQ0x

(圖3)先簡單重溫一下細菌的外部結構,今次我們會特別著重提及Pili,它賦予細菌與外部接觸的能力。982Please respect copyright.PENANAUbQE4HUkXB

(圖4)左邊是文中的圖片,黃色箭嘴頭所指示的就是細菌的pili,它能夠與uromodulin建立非常穩定的連結;982Please respect copyright.PENANAgqExv4rqZH
箇中的連結需要糖份組織的幫助。982Please respect copyright.PENANA9CadKZvCVM

(圖5)Uromodulin在尿液的大量存在,將會強迫致病的大腸桿菌聚在一起,以免大腸桿菌能夠與膀胱內壁接觸及進行感染。982Please respect copyright.PENANAxbuc8T7e12
982Please respect copyright.PENANAb5ssSvsI8E
982Please respect copyright.PENANArRY0Z4zpZc
以壓倒性的數量,簡單將致病的大腸桿菌聚集及封鎖在一起,這種防禦機制相對地直接簡單。982Please respect copyright.PENANAqfrITPIvvs
至於Uromodulin能否與所有已知的致命細菌結合、會否有著其他的機制及功能,還需要進一步的調查。982Please respect copyright.PENANAcMfRyPgJEz
