Figure 3From: Up-regulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in primary afferent pathway regulates colon-to-bladder cross-sensitization in rat Western blot of TRPV1 in the distal colon and the urinary bladder. Western blot results showed that TNBS treatment increased the protein level of TRPV1 in the distal colon by 2-fold (A and B, colon). The level of TRPV1 was not changed in the urinary bladder post TNBS treatment (A and B, bladder). *, p < 0.05. n = 5 for each experimental group.Back to article page
