Effects of Cil on the carbachol-enhanced phasic contractions of neonatal and adult rat urinary bladder strips. a Original traces of carbachol-enhanced phasic contractions in neonatal rat bladder strips before and after the application of DMSO (<0.1%) and the PDE3 inhibitor Cil (1 μM). b Original traces of carbachol-enhanced phasic contractions in adult rat bladder strips before and after the application of DMSO (<0.1%) and the PDE3 inhibitor Cil (1 μM). The arrows indicate the times of drugs application. c Summary data showing the average effect of DMSO (vehicle) and Cil on the carbachol-enhanced phasic contractions amplitude and frequency. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM of n independent bladder strips as indicated in brackets. *P < 0.05 **P < 0.01 and ***P < 0.001 as indicated
