Aims To examine the effect of three commercial intravesical formulations of glycosaminoglycan on in vitro inflammatory models of IC/BPS to better understand there effect on specific markers of disease. Methods Human urothelial cells (HTB-4) were cultured under four conditions in the presence or absence of commercial GAG formulations. Cells were cultured under a basal condition or pre-treated with protamine sulfate (100 ng/ml) (damages the endogenous glycosaminoglycan layer), hydrogen peroxide (1%) (a metabolic stressor) or TNFα (10 ng/ml) (creating an infla
