Evaluation of Methods and Models on Lower Urinary Tract Nerve Function

Abstract

Abstract: Control of the lower urinary tract requires complex neuronal circuits that involve elements located at the peripheral nervous system and at different levels of the central nervous system. The lower urinary tract dysfunction is a clinical common disease. Through animal experiments and clinical research, we have accumulated much information of related lower urinary tract nerve function for years. In this paper，we take the bladder, urethra tract nerve function experiment method and model research as the breakthrough point, and try to provide comprehensive technical information for the the basic research and clinical prevention and treatment research of the urinary tract dysfunction，through reviewing related research reports.

Key words: lower urinary tract, Bladder, urethra, animal models
