PPIG and chronic cystitis: BDNF urinary bladder protein expression was significantly (p ≤ 0.05) increased in mice with 4 h CYP-induced cystitis that received saline or imatinib (1.7-fold each) intrabladder infusion, compared to imatinib infused controls (no CYP), but was not significantly different from vehicle (saline) infused controls (Figure 5E).
