Evidence has shown that the botulinum toxin not only affects the release of neuropeptides from motor nerve endings, but also connects sensory nerves to the central nervous system. Inflammation in the central nervous system can be reduced after botulinum toxin treatment. The scope of therapeutic targets involves detrusor overactivity, sensory disorders, bladder pain and pelvic pain, and inflammatory disorders of the bladder, prostate, and bladder outlet. Although the actual pathophysiological mechanism of the action of the botulinum toxin has not been completely demonstrated, an anti-inflammation effect might be the predominant therapeutic mechanism for functional urological disorders such as an overactive bladder, bladder hypersensitivity, interstitial cystitis, chronic pelvic pain syndrome, chronic prostatitis, and lower urinary tract symptoms\/benign prostatic hyperplasia. This Special Issue of Toxins covers the therapeutic potentials of the botulinum toxin on lower urinary tract dysfunctions, with emphasis on the mechanism of pharmacological action and clinical effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hann-Chorng Kuo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 303936670X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783039366705\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mdpi AG\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/02\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 196\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.69d","brand":"Hann-Chorng Kuo","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48113812930815,"sku":"9783039366705","price":55.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7a902d4e-6c0a-4fb4-911c-8d4fd37f04a9.jpg?v=1769617409","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/botulinum-toxin-treatment-for-pain-hann-chorng-kuo-9783039366705","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
