Phasic activity of urinary bladder smooth muscle in the streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat: Effect of potassium channel modulators (2011)
Journal Article

Increased phasic activity in the bladder smooth muscle of animal models and patients with detrusor overactivity has been suggested to underlie the pathophysiology of overactive bladder. Potassium (K+) channels are key regulators of bladder smooth mus...

The role of c-kit-positive interstitial cells in mediating phasic contractions of bladder strips from streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats (2011)
Journal Article

What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? Although the functional significance of ICCs in the bladder is still not clear, they have been linked with detrusor overactivity. In this study we demonstrate the presence of c-kit positive in...
