Core Tip

Core Tip: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass as a metabolic surgery, effectively alleviates complications associated with diabetes. Although the mechanisms underlying diabetes-induced overactive bladder remain unclear, this study found that Roux-en-Y gastric bypass improved overactive bladder symptoms by suppressing inflammatory cytokines, reducing transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 expression, and inhibiting ATP synthesis in bladder epithelial cells, ultimately leading to a direct inhibition of purinergic receptor P2X3 activity.
