The Effect of Magnesium on Calcium Uptake and Contractility in the Human Myometrium
·doi:10.1159/000293519

High concentrations of magnesium (12 and 24 mM) in the extracellular medium markedly inhibited both spontaneous activity and K+-induced contracture in strips of nonpregnant human myometrium. Net calcium influx measured by the uptake of 45Ca…

Effect of short-term, low-dose treatment with tamoxifen in patients with primary dysmenorrhea
Gynecological endocrinology : the official journal of the International Society of Gynecological Endocrinology ·doi:10.1080/09513590601030233

Current treatment of painful periods and other symptoms related to primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is usually commenced with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or oral contraceptives, which fails in about 10% of affected patients. Tamoxifen, a…

Potent inhibition by tamoxifen of spontaneous and agonist-induced contractions of the human myometrium and intramyometrial arteries
·doi:10.1016/s0002-9378(97)70503-9

ObjectiveOur purpose was to elucidate the mechanism of direct (nongenomic) action of antiestrogens on spontaneous and agonist-induced contractions of the human myometrium and uterine arteries.Study designMyometrial strips and pieces of uter…

Effect of estrogen and progesterone treatment on calcium uptake by the myometrium and smooth muscle of the lower urinary tract
·doi:10.1016/0014-2999(86)90203-7

In order to elucidate the mechanisms by which estrogen treatment increases uterine contractility, the effect of estrogen on Ca uptake was measured in the isolated rabbit uterus as well as in the urethra and urinary bladder. Estrogen treatme…
