Gene expression of muscarinic, tachykinin and purinergic receptors in porcine bladder: comparison with cultured cells

Urothelial cells, myofibroblasts, and smooth muscle cells are important cell types contributing to bladder function. Multiple receptors including muscarinic (M3/M5), tachykinin (NK1/NK2) and purinergic (P2X1/P2Y6) receptors are involved in bladder motor and sensory actions. Using female pig bladder,...
