Excitatory purinergic and cholinergic expression changed in a partial bladder outlet obstruction-induced overactive bladder rat model.

ABSTRACT: Overactive bladder (OAB) is a common, long-term symptom complex with a high prevalence in women worldwide. OAB has caused a social burden, and effective treatments are urgently needed. However, the pathogenesis of OAB has yet to be elucidated. Model rats underwent bladder outlet obstruction surgery. In the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th weeks after surgery, metabolic cages were used to detect the 12 h urine volume of rats in the sham and model groups. The urodynamic parameters bladder leak point pressure (BPLL), maximum voiding pressure (MVP), residual volume (RV), maximum bladder capacity (MBC), bladder compliance (BC), voided efficiency (VE), and non-voiding contractions (NVCs) were also detected. Moreover, the contractile responses of isolated detrusor muscles to electrical and carbachol stimulation
