The HUSMC cultures are produced on the base of human tissues.
Human Urothelial Smooth Muscle Cells (HUSMCs) are primary contractile cells isolated from the detrusor muscle of the human urinary bladder. These cells are of a smooth muscle cell (SMC) lineage, characterized by a spindle-shaped, elongated morphology. Key molecular markers for HUSMCs include α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), smooth muscle myosin heavy chain (SM-MHC), calponin, and desmin, which are essential for their contractile function. They exhibit adherent growth with typical contact-aligned organization and require smooth muscle–specific culture conditions to maintain phenotype stability. Functionally, HUSMCs regulate bladder contractility through coordinated smooth muscle contraction and relaxation, supporting normal urinary bladder physiology. The cells are rigorously tested to ensure they are free of contamination from HIV-1, HBV, HCV, syphilis, mycoplasma, fungi, yeast, and bacteria.

Human Urothelial Smooth Muscle Cells are suitable for in vitro studies of smooth muscle cell biology within urinary bladder–associated tissues. As primary human urinary tract SMCs, they provide a cellular model for investigating contractile properties, cytoskeletal organization, cell–matrix interactions, and regulatory signaling pathways under controlled experimental conditions. These cells may be used to examine cellular responses to biochemical stimulation and mechanical stress, as well as to analyze gene and protein expression patterns related to smooth muscle characteristics.
