Supplementary Figure 6: BarESR1-ChR2 photostimulation can enable urethral sphincter relaxation without bladder contraction.

From: Voluntary urination control by brainstem neurons that relax the urethral sphincter

Supplementary Figure 6

a, Three example BarESR1-ChR2 photostimulation trials in the empty bladder condition (from heatmap in Fig. 5b), in which burst-like EMG activity was observed in the absence of bladder response. Top/yellow traces are bladder pressure, bottom/red traces are raw EMG. Blue shading and dotted lines delineate photostimulation periods.
