Update on cellular expression and function of ANO1 channels in urethral smooth muscle
Abstract figure legend Activation of ANO1 channels and resulting Cl− efflux are suggested to modulate urethral smooth muscle contractility by enhancing Ca2+ influx via voltage‐dependent Ca2+ entry and resulting contraction in urethral smooth muscle cells.

Intermittent catheter use can damage the urinary tract and predispose to infection. We deployed a complex human urothelial model to investigate. Catheter contact induced compressive and shear stress causing umbrella cell disruption, reduced barrier function, inflammation and increased cell adhesion to the catheter surface.

DRUG THERAPY OF NEUROGENIC BLADDER - THE EFFECTS OF ADMINISTRATION OF TOLPERISONE HYDROCHLORIDE TO PATIENTS WITH DYSSYNERGIA BETWEEN DETRUSOR AND EXTERNAL URETHRAL SPHINCTER - [PDF]
There are many patients with neurogenic bladder who complain of dyssynergia between detrusor and external urethral sphincter. Intra-abdominal pressure.

ABSTRACT The connective tissue support of female pelvic viscera—endopelvic fascia—has been studied in fetal and immunohistochemical models to demonstrate its relationship with the autonomic nerves of the female pelvis. Due to a paucity of literature examining the gross anatomical relationships between endopelvic fascia and autonomic nerves in adult ...

Brainstem control of urethral sphincter relaxation and scent marking behavior
Urination may occur either reflexively in response to a full bladder or deliberately irrespective of immediate need. Voluntary control is desired because it ensures that waste is expelled when consciously desired and socially appropriate1,2.

Botulinun A toxin urethral sphincter injection for neurogenic or nonneurogenic voiding dysfunction [PDF]
Voiding dysfunction due to detrusor underactivity or urethral sphincter dysfunction is a treatment challenge for urologists. Recently, urologists have used botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) injection into the urethral sphincter to treat voiding dysfunction ...

Fowler's syndrome: a primary disorder of urethral sphincter relaxation [PDF]
Key content: Urinary retention is a relatively uncommon presentation in young women. Women with Fowler's syndrome are often found to have an abnormally elevated urethral pressure profile, increased urethral sphincter volume and characteristically ...

Introduction: Dysfunctional voiding results from a disturbance in the coordination between sphincter relaxation and detrusor contraction. Video urodynamic studies with electromyography (EMG) are used for diagnosis but have limitations of availability and

Coordination of the bladder detrusor and the external urethral sphincter is a supraspinally controlled reflex that is essential for efficient micturition.

Stimulation of the pontine micturition center (PMC) results in micturition, i.e. an immediate relaxation of the urethral sphincter and a contraction of the detrusor muscle of the bladder.
