TMEM16A chloride channels in the female reproductive tract and their role in normal and dysfunctional pregnancy and labour

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend TMEM16A plays a pivotal role in setting the duration of the action potential plateau in human uterine smooth muscle.
