STIM and Orai isoform expression in pregnant human myometrium: a potential role in calcium signaling during pregnancy.

STIM and Orai isoform expression in pregnant human myometrium: a potential role in calcium signaling during pregnancy.

Store-operated calcium (Ca2+) entry (SOCE) can be mediated by two novel proteins, STIM/Orai. We have previously demonstrated that members of the TRPC family, putative basal and store operated calcium entry channels, are present in human myometrium and regulated by labor associated stimuli IL-1β and...
