Response Properties of Urethral Distension Evoked Unifiber Afferent Potentials in the Lower Urinary Tract

摘要

Purpose: It is well known that afferent input from the urethra can modulate bladder function. Nevertheless, little is known about the functional properties of urethral afferents. In the current study we investigated the effect of urethral distension on single fiber afferent activities of the lower urinary tract in the female rat.
