Protective effects of the selective alpha1A-adrenoceptor antagonist silodosin against cyclophosphamide-induced cystitis in rats

We investigated the protective effects of a selective α1A-adrenoceptor antagonist, silodosin (Silod) on urinary bladder function in cyclophosphamide (CYP)-induced cystitis rats, with and without desensitization of the capsaicin (CAP)-sensitive afferent nerve pathway. Male Wistar rats (310–400 g) wer...
