Non-cholinergic inotropic responses evoked by electric field stimulation in the isolated rat urinary bladder. Possible participation of substance P
The present study explores whether a peptide, such as substance P (SP), has some role subserving the atropine-resistant component of electrically-evoked contractions,in isolated rat urinary bladders. The electric field stimulation (EFS) employed herein,consisted in square wave pulses of 5 Hz, 50 ms...
