Bronchial smooth muscle contractioninduces airway narrowing. The smooth muscle also contributes to bronchial inflammation by secreting a range of inflammatory mediators, recruiting and activating inflammatory cells, such as mast cells or T-lymphocytes. What is bronchial smooth muscle tone? The tone of ai...
Single-unit smooth muscle in the walls of the viscera, called visceral muscle, has astress-relaxation responsethat permits muscle to stretch, contract, and relax as the organ expands. Multiunit smooth muscle cells do not possess gap junctions, and contraction does not spread from one cell to t...
What does skin do in the integumentary system? Where and what role(s) do smooth muscle play in blood vessels? What causes contraction of the ciliary muscle? Why the male testes hang lower than the abdominal cavity and outside of the body? Why male testes hang lower than the abdominal ...
What does the muscle system do for the frog?The Muscular SystemThe muscular system refers to the total makeup of muscles in a body which includes cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle is what the average person thinks of when they picture muscle and is the type...
What Does a Positive Smooth Muscle Antibody Test Mean? Normally, very little to no ASMAs are found in your blood. If your blood test shows a high amount of ASMAs, you may have autoimmune hepatitis. It means that your immune system is attacking healthy cells in your liver using autoantibodi...
MuscleSmoothVascular肥胖症肌平滑血管Resistin was originally discovered as a thiazolidinedione-downregulated gene in mouse adipocytes and has been proposed as a novel adipocyte-specific hormone (adipo-kine) that may link insulin resistance, obesity and cardiovascular disease [1-4]. At present, the exact...
(A) Pathologic intimal thickening (PIT) is shown characterized by lipid pool (LP) that lacks smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Early microcalcification (≥0.5 μm, typically <15 μm in diameter) likely results from SMC apoptosis and calcification is detected by von Kossa staining within the LP (...
Where is skeletal muscle found? What muscle elevates the scapula? What type of muscle is found in your digestive system? What does the skeletal system do? Which neuron would activate a muscle? What muscles attach to the scapula? What is the function of smooth muscle? What type of muscle ...
The fatal thing regarding crash diet is that this diet does not melt fats deposits of the body first. However, it attacks the active muscle tissue metabolically. The most important muscle in the body is the heart, which has to work hard every day. If the heart muscle drops as an outcome...
