AUA 2011 - Whole genome microarray of the major pelvic ganglion after cavernous nerve injury: New insights into expression profiles after nerve injury - Session Highlights

WASHINGTON, DC USA (UroToday.com) -The authors used an animal model for a genomic expression profile to identify candidate genes reflecting physiologic events following cavernosal nerve injury.

 

They identified candidate genes that may be used for preservation and protection of cavernous nerve injury post radical prostatectomy.
