因人而異,膀胱/尿袋 (Urinary Bladder)一般來說可以儲存300-500ml尿液。1005Please respect copyright.PENANAkD2oD3SbyL
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAJiIKVz5agF
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA78ij5IoFR6
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。1005Please respect copyright.PENANAJIxF3FJ2E3
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAjO5megU97F
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?1005Please respect copyright.PENANAoSepLHRmr4
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAzOSyhLo46a
(致病的細菌及毒素亦可從糞便排出)1005Please respect copyright.PENANAUvpHf3GtoN

(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。1005Please respect copyright.PENANAS9etokclVy
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAIo6w99h8yh
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA4jCbLKrSVc
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。1005Please respect copyright.PENANA8XVZ9Exi3R
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAjsa0Zynk1e
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。1005Please respect copyright.PENANAUbAXUPwZuj
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAmgYGGA2E6h
(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。1005Please respect copyright.PENANATBLU15PQJH
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAyvAhYnK0L4
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA5eB5zazpQ2
1005Please respect copyright.PENANANQ3PpiA5RE
1005Please respect copyright.PENANA8I74OwwW2E
(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;1005Please respect copyright.PENANAIulTw9uiLl
箇中的連結需要糖份組織的幫助。1005Please respect copyright.PENANANijMVfsmpA
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAYyOTQF4bUK
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAaZhaulRjhA
(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。1005Please respect copyright.PENANAMPsb4yLjnB
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAZqfdLDQsNx
1005Please respect copyright.PENANAnilNEZbq5I
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。1005Please respect copyright.PENANAUjM52hGJY8
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。1005Please respect copyright.PENANA34J8Pidk7g
