Abstract:
Corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) is a neuropeptide expressed in micturition reflex circuitry and different roles in these reflexes have been suggested. These studies examined the expression of CRF/CRF receptors in the urinary bladder during postnatal development in the rat. Urinary bladder was harvested from rats (postnatal (P) day 0-adult) euthanized by isoflurane (4%) and thoracotomy. CRF protein expression significantly (p
