Journal ArticleDOI
P2x receptors and their role in female idiopathic detrusor instability
Barry A. O’Reilly,Alan Kosaka,Gillian F. Knight,Thomas K. Chang,Anthony P.D.W. Ford,Janice Rymer,Rick Popert,Geoffrey Burnstock,Stephen B. McMahon +8 more
TL;DR: In patients with idiopathic detrusor instability there is abnormal purinergic transmission in the bladder, which may explain symptoms and this pathway may be a novel target for the pharmacological treatment of overactive bladder.
Journal ArticleDOI
A quantitative analysis of purinoceptor expression in human fetal and adult bladders
Barry A. O’Reilly,Alan Kosaka,Thomas K. Chang,Anthony P.D.W. Ford,Rick Popert,Janice Rymer,Stephen B. McMahon +6 more
TL;DR: P2X1 is the predominant purinergic receptor subtype in adult human bladders, consistent with pharmacological evidence and several marked developmental changes in purinoceptor expression in the bladder, in that P2X4 is expressed in developing bladders at relatively high levels.
