## Abstract ## Aims Flavonoids comprise a large group of natural polyphenolic compounds, which possess a wide spectrum of physiological and pharmacological effects. Recently, the flavonoid galangin was found to modulate smooth muscle contractility. The aim of the present study was to investigate t
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
Bladder outlet obstruction induces severe changes in urinary bladder function and metabolism. These changes are characterized by significant reductions in the ability of the in vitro whole bladder to generate pressure and to empty. Metabolically, partial outlet obstruction induces a shift from oxida
