Abstract | OBJECTIVE: METHODS: RESULTS: An increased expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and metallothionein was noted in the study group compared with the control group (P < 0.05). Both proteins of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and metallothionein mainly distributed over bladder urothelium by immunohistochemical staining, and showed co-localization under confocal microscopy. CONCLUSIONS:
