| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We examined the expression of h-TRPC1, h-TRPC6 and h-TRPV4 mRNAs in the bladder urothelium of interstitial cystitis patients by quantitative RT-PCR.In addition, we examined the correlation between IC symptom score and each TRP channels.
The mouse metabolic cage experiment showed that administration of GsMTx4 decreased urinary frequency and increased urine volume/voided urine in mice, despite there being no changes in water intake and total urine volume. This indicates that GsMTx4 is effective in urine storage function.
