Abstract
Calmodulin concentration in pregnant rat uteri increased gradually and reached a level about 3 times that in the non-pregnant rat at term. In humans, uterine calmodulin content at term was .apprx. 3 times that in non-pregnant uteri, but there was no significant difference between the levels in uteri at term with and without labor pain. Estrogen increased the rat uterine calmodulin concentration, but progesterone did not change it.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
