A Computational Functional Tissue Unit of the Human Myometrium for <i>In Silico</i> Study of Gestational Excitability and Pathophysiology

2026-05-09

Abstract excerpt

The human myometrium undergoes a dramatic transformation during pregnancy, shifting from quiescence to highly synchronised contractility. Understanding this transition is crucial for addressing pathologies such as preterm labour and dystocia (ineffective labour). We present a multi-scale Functional Tissue Unit (FTU) model allowing us to investigate how tissue-level excitability emerges from single-cell electrophys...
