We tested the hypothesis that there were differences between the two conditions in the microlocalization of mast cells within the airway smooth muscle. Immunohistochemical analysis of bronchial ...

The human body is a wonderous thing, especially when you consider how intricate and efficient each bodily system is. For instance, an adult’s blood vessels could encircle the earth 2.5 times if ...

A research group has discovered that certain naturally occurring peptides in the body can trigger contractions in the vas ...

Researchers have discovered that a key protein controls how stem cells 'choose' to become either skeletal muscle cells that move limbs, or smooth muscle cells that support blood vessels.

To establish a new smooth muscle differentiation classification and to test its prognostic value, 412 sarcomas with complex genetics were examined by immunohistochemistry using four smooth muscle ...

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 ...

There are 3 types of muscle: skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle. Each of these has a different structure and role. While skeletal muscle attaches to your bones and helps you move ...

ASMAs — also known as smooth muscle antibodies — attack smooth muscle tissues throughout certain parts of the body. The ASMA test searches for these antibodies in the blood. The most common ...

"Smooth muscle tissue takes an active part in the development of adaptation and pathological conditions, including the conditions of orbital flight. But, despite this, the mechanisms of its ...

Rare smooth muscle disorder traced to a single mutation in a non-coding gene Date: February 28, 2023 Source: Massachusetts General Hospital Summary: Using whole genome sequencing, researchers ...
