Unlike the distributions observed for bladder and external urethral sphincter [ 10 ] where there was considerable overlap as well as a large number of double-labeled neurons, the results for bladder and prostate in this work are quite different.
EUS = external urethral sphincter
In the present study we show that clozapine acts at supraspinal and spinal sites to inhibit certain urodynamic parameters and the external urethral sphincter of the rat resulting in decreased voiding efficiency.
However, olanzapine and risperidone may also result in urinary disturbances by their influence on central pathways mediating bladder contractions or coordinating external urethral sphincter, as may have been the case in the present study.
Blockade of the external urethral sphincter in anesthetized rats results in a disappearance of the HFO from the bladder pressure recording as well as a disappearance of the bursting pattern of the EUS EMG observed during HFO [ 26 27 28 ] . In addition, there is a decreased ability of the bladder to empty as evidenced by a decreased micturition volume and an increased residual volume [ 26 27 29 ] . Therefore, inhibition of the external urethral sphincter, as was the case for the two neuroleptics in the present study and also for clozapine in our earlier study [ 7 ] , might provide an important mechanism by which the bladder is rendered less effective in emptying and therefore altering other urodynamic variables resulting in decreased micturition volume and increased residual volume in rats.
