Voltage-dependent Ca2+ entry into smooth muscle during contraction promotes endothelium-mediated feedback vasodilation in arterioles [PDF]
, 2017 Vascular smooth muscle contraction is suppressed by feedback dilation mediated by the endothelium. In skeletal muscle arterioles, this feedback can be activated by Ca2+ signals passing from smooth muscle through gap junctions to endothelial cells, which ...

Effect of hydrogen sulfide on the contractile activity of smooth muscle cells from the rat aorta
Бюллетень сибирской медицины, 2010 In preparations of rat aorta, used as a model of muscular type arteries, the method mehanografii studied the effect of hydrogen sulfide on the reduction of isolated of vascular smooth muscle.

Slow Limb Movements Require Precise Control of Muscle Stiffness [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Slow and accurate finger and limb movements are essential to daily activities, but their neural control and governing mechanics are relatively unexplored. We consider neuromechanical systems where slow movements are produced by neural commands that modulate muscle stiffness.

A Multiphase Model of Growth Factor-Regulated Atherosclerotic Cap Formation [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Atherosclerosis is characterised by the growth of fatty plaques in the inner (intimal) layer of the artery wall. In mature plaques, vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are recruited from the adjacent medial layer to deposit a cap of fibrous collagen over the fatty plaque core.

Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell [PDF]
, 2018 Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are the stromal cells of the vascular wall and are responsible for regulating arterial tone, blood pressure, and blood supply of the tissues.

Severe asthma is associated with a remodeling of the pulmonary arteries in horses.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Pulmonary hypertension and cor pulmonale are complications of severe equine asthma, as a consequence of pulmonary hypoxic vasoconstriction. However, as pulmonary hypertension is only partially reversible by oxygen administration, other etiological ...

Phosphate regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell calcification.
Circulation Research, 2000 Vascular calcification is a common finding in atherosclerosis and a serious problem in diabetic and uremic patients. Because of the correlation of hyperphosphatemia and vascular calcification, the ability of extracellular inorganic phosphate levels to ...
