Characterisation of bladder sensory neurons in the context of myelination, receptors for pain modulators, and acute responses to bladder inflammation
Bladder sensation is mediated by lumbosacral dorsal root ganglion neurons and is essential for normal voiding and nociception. Numerous electrophysiological, structural and molecular changes occur in these neurons following inflammation. Defining which neurons undergo these changes is critical for u...
