Ca(2+)-dependent regulation of the Ca(2+) concentration in the myometrium mitochondria. I. Trifluoperazine effects on mitochondria membranes polarization and [Ca(2+)](m) [PDF]
Са2+-dependent regulation of Ca2+ exchange in mitochondria is carried out with participation of calmodulin. We have shown previously that calmodulin antagonists reduced the level of mitochondrial membrane polarization and induced increase of the ionized ...

Ghrelin in the human myometrium [PDF]
Ghrelin is a 28-amino acid octanolyated peptide, synthesised primarily in the stomach. It stimulates growth hormone release, food intake and exhibits many other diverse effects. Our group have previously determined that ghrelin inhibited human contractility in vitro.

Evidence for the expression of vasorin in the human female reproductive tissues
Objective: To investigate the expression and localization of Vasorin (Vasn) in human female reproductive system. Methods: The presence of Vasorin was evaluated by RT-PCR and immunoblotting analyses in patient-derived endometrial, myometrial and granulosa

Influence of smooth muscle contractility by inhibition of crac channels activity
The present in vitro study was focused on the differences in expression and activity of calcium release-activated calcium (CRAC) channels of human term-pregnant and non-pregnant myometrium. The expression of Orai1 protein, as a functional subunit of CRAC

A new affine inhibitor of sodium pump thiacalix[4]arene С-1193 increases the intracellular concentration of Ca ions and modifies myometrium contractility [PDF]
The methods of enzymatic and kinetic analysis were used to demonstrate that thiacalix[4]arene-bis-hydroxymethylphosphonic acid С-1193 had the inhibitory effect (І0.5 = 42.1 ± 0.6 nM) on Na+,K+-ATPase activity in the plasma membrane of myometrium cells ...
