Spinal and supraspinal components of GABAergic inhibition of the micturition reflex in rats

The effect of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic drugs on micturition reflexes was investigated in urethane-anesthetized rats. Intracisternally administered GABA or homotaurine inhibited, in a bicuculline-sensitive manner, the supraspinal micturition reflex. Bicuculline or picrotoxin increased the...
