Uterine Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Its Unfolded Protein Response May Regulate Caspase 3 Activation in the Pregnant Mouse Uterus [PDF]

, 2013
We have previously proposed that uterine caspase-3 may modulate uterine contractility in a gestationally regulated fashion. The objective of this study was to determine the mechanism by which uterine caspase-3 is activated and consequently controlled in ...

A Broad-Spectrum Chemokine Inhibitor Blocks Inflammation-Induced Myometrial Myocyte–Macrophage Crosstalk and Myometrial Contraction

Cells, 2021
Prophylactic administration of the broad-spectrum chemokine inhibitor (BSCI) FX125L has been shown to suppress uterine contraction, prevent preterm birth (PTB) induced by Group B Streptococcus in nonhuman primates, and inhibit uterine cytokine/chemokine ...

Effect of the contraction ratio upon viscoelastic fluid flow in three-dimensional square-square contractions [PDF]

, 2011
In this work we investigate the laminar flow through square–square sudden contractions with various contraction ratios (CR¼2.4, 4,8and12), using a Newtonian fluid and a shear-thinning viscoelastic fluid.

Salvia sclarea L. Essential Oil Extract and Its Antioxidative Phytochemical Sclareol Inhibit Oxytocin-Induced Uterine Hypercontraction Dysmenorrhea Model by Inhibiting the Ca²⁺–MLCK–MLC20 Signaling Cascade: An Ex Vivo and In Vivo Study

Antioxidants, 2020
Salvia sclarea essential oil is used as an aromatic therapy for dysmenorrhea. Sclareol—one of the natural products isolated from S. sclarea—displays anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities; however, researchers have not yet evaluated the mechanism ...

The Effect of Vitamin D3 Supplementation on Increases of Levator Ani Contraction Strength in Women with Uterine Prolapse

Indonesian Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2020
Objective: To investigate the differences of levator muscle contraction strength after vitamin D3 supplementation, thus it is expected that the administration of vitamin D3 can reduce the incidence of uterine prolapse recurrence after reconstructive ...

Muscarinic receptor blockade with oxybutynin reduces spontaneous and induced uterine muscle contractions

Pregnancy
Objective The uterus and the bladder have striking physiologic and anatomic similarities. Anticholinergic medications are commonly used to treat “overactive bladder” by targeting M2 and M3 muscarinic receptors.

The influence of uterine abnormalities on uterine peristalsis in the non-pregnant uterus: A systematic review

Journal of Endometriosis and Uterine Disorders, 2023
Uterine peristalsis is the rhythmic wave-like motion of the subendometrial layer of the uterus. These contractions change throughout the menstrual cycle in terms of direction, frequency and amplitude, and can be analysed with various methods. Not much is
