متن کاملAirway smooth muscle electrophysiology in a state of flux?
Activation of chloride currents and release of internally sequestered Ca(2+) in airway smooth muscle have long been associated with excitation and contraction. Surprisingly, however, two recent publications (Deshpande DA, Wang WC, McIlmoyle EL, Robinett KS, Schillinger RM, An SS, Sham JS, Liggett SB. Nat Med 16: 1299-1304, 2010; Gallos G, Yim P, Chang S, Zhang Y, Xu D, Cook JM, Gerthoffer WT, E...
متن کاملA Quantitative Model of Human Jejunal Smooth Muscle Cell Electrophysiology
Recently, a number of ion channel mutations have been identified in the smooth muscle cells of the human jejunum. Although these are potentially significant in understanding diseases that are currently of unknown etiology, no suitable computational cell model exists to evaluate the effects of such mutations. Here, therefore, a biophysically based single cell model of human jejunal smooth muscle...
متن کاملArchitecture and Nerve Supply of Mammalian Smooth Muscle Tissue
Smooth muscle tissue from mouse urinary bladder, uterus, and gall bladder has been studied by means of the electron microscope. The smooth muscle cells are distinctly and completely separated from each other by a cytolemma comparable to the sarcolemma of striated muscle. The tissue is thus cellular and not syncytial. With this evidence, supported by electron microscopy of other tissues, we ques...
متن کاملThe Organization of Contractile Filaments in a Mammalian Smooth Muscle
Ordered arrays of thin filaments (65 A diameter) along with other apparently random arrangements of thin and thick filaments (100-200 A diameter) are observed in contracted guinea pig taenia coli rapidly fixed in glutaraldehyde. The thin-filament arrays vary from a few to more than 100 filaments in each array. The arrays are scattered among isolated thin and thick filaments. Some arrays are reg...
