Abstract
Engineered SMCs derived from urinary bladder and small intestine could retain their phenotype after implantation in vivo. Both exhibited a similar degree of contractility to EFS. These results suggest that there are no phenotypic or functional differences between muscle cells obtained from the 2 different organs. Both have the potential to be engineered into normal bladder tissues.
