Cystitis Modeling

Cystitis is a common urinary system disorder, typically caused by bacterial infection or triggered by chemical or radiation-induced irritation. Experimental models of cystitis include bacterial injection (e.g., Escherichia coli) and cyclophosphamide-induced inflammation. These models are widely used to investigate inflammatory signaling pathways, bladder barrier dysfunction, and the mechanisms of anti-infective and anti-inflammatory interventions.
