Recent studies indicate that the mucosa of the urinary bladder plays a major role in the maintenance of normal bladder function. Previous studies have demonstrated that rabbit bladder mucosa has higher rates of basal glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation than that of bladder smooth muscle. The cu

Partial bladder outlet obstruction results in progressive loss in contractile and specific cellular and subcellular membrane functions. There is evidence that ischemic activation of proteolytic and lipolytic enzymes play a major role in the etiology of bladder dysfunction secondary to partial outlet
In contrast to the extensive work on in vitro experiments for elucidation of the electrical properties of smooth musculature, the acquisition of knowledge on electrical signal behaviour from smooth-muscle cells in an in vivo situation remains very limited and rare. Smoothmuscle electromyographic rec
The contractile response of the smooth muscle of the urinary bladder is dependent upon both the entrance of extracellular calcium through receptor-operated calcium channels and the stimulated release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. In addition, partial outlet obstruction induces marked a
