Figure 7From: Up-regulation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor in primary afferent pathway regulates colon-to-bladder cross-sensitization in rat Colonic inflammation increased the activity of the urinary bladder. Colonic inflammation decreased the micturition intervals (A) and increased the micturition frequency (B). Colonic inflammation also decreased the average amount of solution per voiding (C). *, p < 0.05 vs. control. n = 4 animals for each treatment.Back to article page
