Computational modeling of voltage-gated Ca channels inhibition: identification of different effects on uterine and cardiac action potentials
The uterus and heart share the important physiological feature whereby contractile activation of the muscle tissue is regulated by the generation of periodic, spontaneous electrical action potentials (APs). Preterm birth arising from premature uterine contractions is a major complication of pregnanc...
