AimMethodsWe investigated the role of the bladder wall in permeating water, focusing on aquaporins.Female Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 300g were used to investigate the role of the bladder wall in saline permeation. Changes in intravesical fluid volume and sodium concentration were measured in the desmopressin acetate hydrate-loaded and control groups 3h after administration. Bladders were resected to measure aquaporin-1, 2, and 3 gene expression using qRT-PCR. Additionally, the change of aquaporin-2 expression was measured using Western blotting and immunohistochemistry in intravesical aquaporin-2 siRNA-treated and control groups.ResultsConclusionsAlthough the intravesical fluid volume and sodium concentration significantly decreased from 0 to 3h (1.000.00 vs 0.83 +/- 0.08mL, 157.80 +/- 1.30 vs 146.8 +/- 1.92mEq/mL, P
