ERK MAP kinases regulate smooth muscle contraction in ovine uterine artery: effect of pregnancy [PDF]
, 2002 The present study investigated the potential role of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) in uterine artery contraction and tested the hypothesis that pregnancy upregulated ERK-mediated function in the uterine artery. Isometric tension in response

Uterine contraction and physiological mechanisms of modulation [PDF]
, 1993 Control of the smooth muscle in the uterus (the myometrium), is of vital importance during pregnancy and parturition. It is therefore understandable that several physiological mechanisms (neuronal, hormonal, metabolic, and mechanical) play a role in the ...

Phloroglucinol inhibits oxytocin-induced contraction in rat gastric circular muscle and uterine smooth muscle [PDF]
, 2022 Phloroglucinol is commonly used to alleviate dysmenorrhoea and stomach cramps. However, there is little evidence of phloroglucinol in the mechanism of primary dysmenorrhoea (PD) development. In this study, a PD rat model was established.

Single-cell mechanics and calcium signalling in organotypic slices of human myometrium [PDF]
, 2015 The information that connects genotypes and phenotypes is essentially embedded in research articles written in natural language. To facilitate access to this knowledge, we constructed a framework for the curation of the scientific literature studying the

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.We present a novel AI‐integrated implantation‐on‐chip platform that enables mimicking and monitoring the maternal–fetal interactions at the early phases of human embryo implantation with high spatiotemporal resolution. The complexity of the trophoblast invasion process was addressed by conducting the analysis at global (rate of invasion) and local ...
