Abstract

The ATP-gated purinergic receptor P2X3 is expressed by small diameter sensory neurons and has been identified in normal and neurogenic human bladder suburothelial fibres. Animal models have shown that ATP is released by the urothelium during bladder distension, suggesting a mechanosensory role for P2X3 receptors in normal bladder function. Successful treatment of spinal neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) with intravesical resiniferatoxin (RTX), which partly acts on suburothelial C fibres, provides evidence for the emergence of a C fibre-mediated spinal reflex. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible role of P2X3-positive innervation in this pathological voiding reflex by comparing suburothelial P2X3 immunoreactivity of controls and in patients with NDO before and after intravesical RTX. Bladder biopsies were obtained from 8 controls and 20 patients with refractory NDO enrolled in a trial of intravesical RTX. P2X3 nerve fibre density and intensity were studied in the specimens by immunohistochemistry. P2X3-IR nerve fibres were significantly increased in patients with NDO compared to controls (p=0.014). Thirteen patients had pre- and post-RTX biopsies available for immunohistochemistry; 5 of them responded clini...Continue Reading
