Mechanical stretch regulates hypertrophic phenotype of the myometrium during pregnancy.

Reproduction (Cambridge, England) - 1 Jan 2010

Shynlova Oksana, Kwong Ruth, Lye Stephen J

Abstract excerpt

The adaptive growth of the uterus is a critical event that involves changes in cellular phenotypes throughout pregnancy. In early pregnancy, uterine growth is due to hyperplasia of uterine smooth muscle cells (SMCs) within the myometrium; however, the major component of myometrial growth occurs after mid-gestation. This study sought to test the hypothesis that increase in myometrial growth seen during late...
