Mechanical properties of asthmatic airway smooth muscle.
Airway smooth muscle (ASM) is the major effector of excessive airway narrowing in asthma. Changes in some of the mechanical properties of ASM could contribute to excessive narrowing and have not been systematically studied in human ASM from nonasthmatic and asthmatic subjects. Human ASM strips (eight asthmatic and six nonasthmatic) were studied at in situ length and force was normalised to maxi...

متن کاملProperties of smooth muscle meta-vinculin
Quantitative studies show that meta-vinculin is ninefold more soluble in 0.6 M salt than in the 0.01 M salt buffers used to extract vinculin. Based on this finding, we have developed a protocol for the purification of meta-vinculin in 43% yield and 98% purity from a high salt extract of gizzard smooth muscle. In contrast to our earlier extraction studies, which were done on unfixed cryostat sec...

PROSSER, C. L.., GEOFFREY BURNSTOCK AND JOSEPH KAHN. conduction in smooth muscle: comparative structural properties. Am. J. Physiol. I gg(3) : 545-552. -I g6o-The individual fibers of smooth muscle of high propagation velocity (e.g. esophagus) are longer and more closely packed than in those of low velocity (e.g. cat intestine). The space between fibers and within bundles calculated from electr...
متن کاملAirway smooth muscle cells synthesize hyaluronan cable structures independent of inter-alpha-inhibitor heavy chain attachment.
The covalent association of inter-alpha-inhibitor-derived heavy chains (HCs) with hyaluronan was first described in synovial fluid from arthritic patients and later described as a structural and functional component of hyaluronan "cable" structures produced by many different cells and stimuli. HC transfer has been shown to be mediated by the protein product of TSG-6 (tumor necrosis factor-stimu...
