Abstract
⺠Sensory neurons in the rat bladder express TRPV1 and contain substance P. ⺠Systemic vanilloid administration may desensitise/destroy these neurons. ⺠Spinal cord and bladder TRPV1, SP and NK1 receptor expression changed after capsaicin and resiniferatoxin administration. ⺠Vanilloid administration may alter transcription and translation of TRPV1, SP and NK1 receptors.
