Résumé

Nous présentons dans cet article les bases biologiques de la thérapie cellulaire appliquée à l’incontinence urinaire par insuffisance sphinctérienne urétrale.

Les connaissances acquises en matière de biologie de greffe cellulaire pour les myopathies en général ont permis aux investigateurs urologues de concevoir des essais cliniques pour l’incontinence urinaire. Plusieurs méthodes de préparations de cellules précurseurs musculaires sont actuellement testées dans cette indication. Les résultats devraient être prochainement connus.

Abstract

In this article we describe the biological basis of cell therapy as applied to urinary incontinence caused by urethral sphincter deficiency.

What we now know about the biology of cell transplants for myopathies in general has enabled researchers in urology to design clinical trials relating to urinary incontinence. Several methods of preparing muscular precursor cells are currently under trial. Results should soon be available.
