Smooth muscle tumors are here considered an essentially dichotomous group composed of benign leiomyomas and malignant leiomyosarcomas. Soft tissue smooth muscle tumors with both atypia and mitotic ...
UCLA researchers have transformed adult stem cells taken from human adipose -- or fat tissue -- into smooth muscle cells, which help the normal function of a multitude of organs like the intestine, ...
Cerebral endothelium is being studied rather extensively in tissue culture, but no reports are available describing the tissue culture of cerebral microvascular smooth muscle. The present paper ...
The retinoblastoma protein (Rb), a key regulator of cell cycle progression, can bind the transcription factor E2F converting it from a positive transcriptional factor capable of driving cells into S ...

Study reveals how uterine contractions are regulated by stretch and pressure during childbirth
When labor begins, the uterus must coordinate rhythmic, well-timed contractions to deliver the baby safely. While hormones such as progesterone and oxytocin are key contributors to that process, ...
Under pressure: Forces from fluid in the developing lung play an essential role in organ development
It is a marvel of nature: during gestation, multiple tissue types cooperate in building the elegantly functional structures of organs, from the brain’s folds to the heart’s multiple chambers. A recent ...
Skeletal muscle is the largest metabolic organ in the body. It is composed of muscle fibers, blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue. In skeletal muscle, blood vessels are responsible for ...
