Logistic Analysis of Cumulative Steady-State Carbachol-Induced Dose–Response Curves in Wild Type, Uroplakin II, and Uroplakin IIIa Knockout (KO) Mice
| Group | Gender | Emax (g) | pEC50 | Slope |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WT | Male (11) | 3.3 ± 0.5 | 5.73 ± 0.08 | 1.0 ± 0.1 |
| Female (11) | 3.7 ± 0.5 | 5.67 ± 0.08 | 1.1 ± 0.1 | |
| UPII KO | Male (13) | 3.3 ± 0.5 | 5.63 ± 0.07* | 1.0 ± 0.1 |
| Female (11) | 3.9 ± 0.5 | 5.39 ± 0.08** | 1.1 ± 0.1 | |
| UPIIa KO | Male (14) | 3.6 ± 0.4 | 5.56 ± 0.07 | 1.3 ± 0.1 |
| Female (11) | 3.0 ± 0.5 | 5.40 ± 0.08** | 1.3 ± 0.1 |
The number of mice in each category/group was 4. Statistics were based on the number of strips (shown in parentheses). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM. Statistical analysis of differences between groups was performed using Two-way ANOVA followed by post hoc pairwise comparisons. Values of P < 0.05 were taken as statistically significant.
Significantly different from UPII KO female.
Significantly different from WT female.
