The urinary bladder requires an adequate energy supply to maintain contractile function. The primary metabolic fuel is glucose. Through glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation, high energy phosphates are generated, which in turn supply the metabolic energy for the contractile activities of the urin
In the rabbit bladder, pregnancy and prolonged bladder contractions decrease both muscarinic receptor density and contractile response, whereas newborns show enhanced muscarinic contractile response. Although the M 2 receptor predominates in rabbit bladder, we and others have shown that the affinity
