micturition reflex. The research team found this effect to be mediated by capsaicin-sensitive pathways. In animals with detrusor overactivity induced by capsaicin or citric acid,
administration of TRPV1 blockers prevented lowering of the micturition threshold volume and reduction of voiding interval. Cefalu, J. S. _ et al_. Selective pharmacological blockade of the
