Mp68-05 Comparison of the Effects of Brain-derived Neurotrophic Factor (bdnf) and Nerve Growth Factor (ngf) Inhibition on Bladder Function of Mice With Spinal Cord Injury (sci)

Year: 2016

Type: article

Abstract: positively associated with MMP-2 (p¼0.0074) and MMP-9/NGAL (p<0.0001).In male UCPPS patients, none of the proteins studied were significantly correlated with either pain or urinary severity after adjustment for multiple comparisons.CONCLUSIONS: VEGF, VEGF-R1, and MMP-9 may serve as clinically useful diagnostic markers for UCPPS in males.In females, MMP-9/NGAL, MMP-2, and VEGF may inform prognosis within patients with UCPPS.
