Spinal cord injury (SCI) rostral to the lumbosacral level causes bladder hyperreflexia and
detrusor-sphincter dyssynergia (DSD), which are accompanied by bladder hypertrophy. We …

OBJECTIVES: To assess the feasibility of bladder acellular matrix (BAM) grafting onto the
bladder of rats with spinal cord injury (SCI). METHODS: Female Wistar rats, weighing 100 to …

OBJECTIVE To determine the combined effects of nerve growth factor (NGF) and vascular
endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on regeneration of the bladder acellular matrix graft …

Purpose: We investigated functional recovery of the lower urinary system in rats with spinal
cord injury after transplanting neuronal restricted precursors/glial restricted precursors or …

Background In the most of previous experiments, intrathecal administration of stem cells
(SCs) was seen in the management of neurogenic bladder (NGB) following contusion or …

Severe spinal cord injury leads to neurogenic bladder dysfunction. We recently developed a
multisystem neuroprosthetic training program that promotes plastic changes capable of …

Experiments on spinal cord injury (SCI) have largely focused on the transplantation of stem
cells into injured spinal cords for motor recovery while neglecting to investigate bladder …

Purpose: To assess the response of rat urinary bladder regenerated by the homologous
bladder acellular matrix graft (BAMG) to in vitro electrical and pharmacologic stimuli …

In this work, we are presenting a rat animal model for bladder hyperreflexia after suprasacral
spinal cord transection. Our aim was to standardize an animal model that can be useful in …

Aims To investigate the effects of combined therapy with an anticholinergic agent and a β3‐
adrenoceptor agonist on bladder dysfunction and proliferation‐related molecule expression …
