Neuronal Excitation in the Ventral Tegmental Area Modulates the Micturition Reflex Mediated via the Dopamine D1 and D2 Receptors in Rats
Involvement of the dopamine D1 and D2 receptors in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) in the micturition reflex was investigated using female Sprague Dawley rats under urethane anesthesia. Cystometrograms during continuous infusion of warmed saline into the bladder were recorded. When intervals of bla...
