Increased expression of interleukin (IL)-6 family members and receptors in urinary bladder with cyclophosphamide (CYP)-induced bladder inflammation in female rats

Recent studies suggest that JAK-STAT signaling pathways contribute to increased voiding frequency and referred pain of CYP-induced cystitis in rats. Potential upstream chemical mediator(s) that may be activated by CYP-induced cystitis to stimulate JAK/STAT signaling are not known in detail. In the...
