The cytoskeletal and contractile apparatus of smooth muscle: contraction bands and segmentation of the contractile elements
Confocal laser scanning microscopy of isolated and antibody-labeled avian gizzard smooth muscle cells has revealed the global organization of the contractile and cytoskeletal elements. The cytoskeleton, marked by antibodies to desmin and filamin is composed of a mainly longitudinal, meandering and b...
