Predicting oxytocin binding dynamics in receptor genetic variants through computational modeling by Preeti Dubey, Yingye Fang, K. Lionel Tukei, Shobhan Kuila, Xinming Liu, Annika Sahota, Antonina I. Frolova, Erin L. Reinl, Manasi Malik, Sarah K. England, Princess I. Imoukhuede

“…To address this, we developed a mathematical model examining the effects of five OXT receptor (OXTR) variants (V45L, P108A, L206V, V281M, and E339K) on OXT–OXTR binding dynamics in human embryonic kidney cells (HEK293T) and myometrial smooth muscle cells. The model was parameterized using experimentally derived, cell-specific OXTR surface localization measurements and literature-reported OXT-OXTR-binding kinetics. …”

Vasorelaxant effects and its mechanisms of the rhizome of Acorus gramineus on isolated rat thoracic aorta by Jueon Lee, Sujin Shin, Junkyu Park, Ho-Young Choi, Kyungjin Lee

“…The findings suggested that the mechanism of this effect was independent of endothelial cells and was associated with vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). Since vasodilatory mechanisms associated with VSMC are predominantly influenced by K+ and Ca2+ channels, we explored various channels, including calcium-activated K+, voltage-dependent (delayed rectifier) K+, ATP-sensitive K+, inwardly rectifying K+, receptor-operated Ca2+ (ROCC), and voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels (VDCC). …”
