A Case of Massive Broad Ligament Leiomyoma Imitating an Ovarian Tumour [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2014 Leiomyomas are the most common benign tumours of female reproductive system which occur in women of child- bearing ages. Large fibroids are known to arise from uterus, but rarely from broad ligament.

A quantitative model for refilling of the sarcoplasmic reticulum during vascular smooth muscle asynchronous [Ca2+] oscillations [PDF]
Cell Calcium 42, 565-75 (2007), 2006 We have developed a quantitative model for the creation of cytoplasmic Ca2+ gradients near the inner surface of the plasma membrane (PM). In particular we simulated the refilling of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) via PM-SR junctions during asynchronous [Ca2+] oscillations in smooth muscle cells of the rabbit inferior vena cava.

Angiotensin II stimulates NADH and NADPH oxidase activity in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells.
Circulation Research, 1994 The signaling pathways involved in the long-term metabolic effects of angiotensin II (Ang II) in vascular smooth muscle cells are incompletely understood but include the generation of molecules likely to affect oxidase activity.

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2008 Myofibromas are well described in the head and neck region, but differentiating them from smooth muscle lesions is still difficult using smooth muscle immunohistochemical stains.

Generation of myogenic progenitor cell-derived smooth muscle cells for sphincter regeneration
Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2020 Background Degeneration of smooth muscles in sphincters can cause debilitating diseases such as fecal incontinence. Skeletal muscle-derived cells have been effectively used in clinics for the regeneration of the skeletal muscle sphincters, such as the ...

Transcription factor GATA6 promotes migration of human coronary artery smooth muscle cells in vitro
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Vascular smooth muscle cell plasticity plays a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of vascular diseases. Despite compelling evidence demonstrating the importance of transcription factor GATA6 in vascular smooth muscle, the functional role of GATA6 ...

Segmentation of Shoulder Muscle MRI Using a New Region and Edge based Deep Auto-Encoder [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Automatic segmentation of shoulder muscle MRI is challenging due to the high variation in muscle size, shape, texture, and spatial position of tears. Manual segmentation of tear and muscle portion is hard, time-consuming, and subjective to pathological expertise.

Pharmacological Reviews, 2016 The smooth muscle cell directly drives the contraction of the vascular wall and hence regulates the size of the blood vessel lumen. We review here the current understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which agonists, therapeutics, and diseases ...

Bindarit inhibits human coronary artery smooth muscle cell proliferation, migration and phenotypic switching. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Bindarit, a selective inhibitor of monocyte chemotactic proteins (MCPs) synthesis, reduces neointimal formation in animal models of vascular injury and recently has been shown to inhibit in-stent late loss in a placebo-controlled phase II clinical trial.

Respiratory Research, 2017 Smooth muscle cell migration has been implicated in the development of respiratory and cardiovascular systems; and airway/vascular remodeling. Cell migration is a polarized cellular process involving a protrusive cell front and a retracting trailing rear.
