Downregulation of large-conductance calcium-activated potassium (BK) channel (α- and β-subunits) expression in bladders from rabbits with PBOO. A: representative Western blots for BKα, BKβ, and α-actin (used as an internal control). B: analyzed Western blot data with the quantified expression levels measured by the FUJIFILM Image Reader. Both BK α- and β-subunits are significantly downregulated in bladders from rabbits 2 wk after surgical induction of PBOO. Values are means ± SE. *Statistical significance, P < 0.05; n = 6.
