TO KNOW THE EFFICACY OF GLYCERYL TRINITRATE PATCH AND RITODRINE AS TOCOLYTIC AGENTS: A COMPARATIVE STUDY

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Preterm labour is onset of labour between 20 weeks and 37 completed weeks of gestation. Tocolytics are pharmacological agents that relax the uterine myometrium and inhibit uterine contractions leading to abolition of preterm labour.

In the gravid human uterus, oxytocin induces smooth muscle cell contraction via transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 channel activation

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In gravid human uterus smooth muscle, the oxytocin receptor (OXTR) and transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) calcium channel colocalize at <40 nm by proximity ligation. TRPV4 is necessary for oxytocin‐induced calcium influx and contractility in uterine smooth muscle cells.
