In a cyclophosphamide (CYP) model of cystitis, we found that the gene expression of several candidate MSCs (Trpv1, Trpv4, Piezo1, and Piezo2) were all upregulated in the urothelium and detrusor following chronic CYP-induced cystitis, but not acute CYP-induced cystitis. Here, PIEZO1 is linked to chronic cystitis.
