Small Cell Lung Cancer Establishes a Metabolic Autocrine Mechanism Through Active Extracellular ATP Transport

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) actively exports ATP through PANX1 channels, triggering P2RX7‐mediated autocrine signaling and promoting tumor proliferation. Inhibition of PANX1 or P2RX7 disrupts this loop and suppresses tumor growth. ABSTRACT Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive malignancy with a 5‐year survival rate of less than 7%.

Association Between Cholinesterase Inhibitor‐Overactive Bladder Antimuscarinic Prescribing Cascade and Risk of Delirium and Falls Among Individuals Living With Dementia

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Prescribing cascades occur when cholinesterase inhibitor (ChEI)‐induced urinary incontinence is misinterpreted as a new condition, leading to overactive bladder (OAB) antimuscarinic initiation. We evaluated whether the ChEI‐OAB antimuscarinic prescribing cascade was associated with delirium or falls compared with mirabegron in older

Comparative assessment of onabotulinumtoxinA and mirabegron for overactive bladder: an indirect treatment comparison [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
CONTEXT: OnabotulinumtoxinA and mirabegron have recently gained marketing authorisation to treat symptoms of overactive bladder (OAB). OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relative efficacy of mirabegron and onabotulinumtoxinA in patients with idiopathic OAB ...

Psychogenic polydipsia in dogs – a review of pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Polyuria and polydipsia represent a common clinical presentation in dogs and may result from numerous disorders affecting different body systems. Compulsive water consumption is characteristic of psychogenic polydipsia, a primary polydipsia disorder rooted in neurologic, behavioural or environmental factors.

Cells and ionic conductances contributing to spontaneous activity in bladder and urethral smooth muscle

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cells and conductances contributing to spontaneous activity in the lower urinary tract. Bladder and urethra exhibit spontaneous contractions at both cellular and tissue levels. Both detrusor and urethral smooth muscle cells display activity that is regular and rhythmic.

Dysregulation of CD39/Ectonucleoside Triphosphate Diphosphohydrolase 1 Causes Urinary Bladder Dysfunction with Abnormal Smooth Muscle Contractility

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
Abnormal extracellular ATP levels cause lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS). Here, we demonstrate that overexpression of ENTPD1 (CD39TG)—an ATP/ADP converting enzyme—reduces voiding frequency while increasing void volume. Conversely, ENTPD1 deficiency results in frequent, small‐volume voiding.

Investigations of urethral sphincter activity in mice with bladder hyperalgesia before and after drug administration of gabapentin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
PurposeThis study investigated the effect of gabapentin on lower urinary tract dysfunction focusing on urethral activities and cystitis-induced hyperalgesia in a mouse model of painful bladder syndrome/interstitial cystitis (PBS/IC). The electromyography&

Urinary Incontinence and Overactive Bladder: A Review

open access: yes, 2009
Overactive bladder (OAB) and urinary incontinence (UI) are common symptoms in the adult population. In 2002, the International Continence Society provided new definitions for lower urinary tract dysfunction but the prevalence, incidence and remission estimates of OAB and UI (and its different types) vary considerably across studies.
