Rat small intestine smooth muscle.
Rat Small Intestine Smooth Muscle Cells are derived from the small intestine tissue of rats. These smooth muscle cells are cryopreserved at early passage. They exhibit a spindle-shaped morphology and grow as a monolayer in culture. These cells play a crucial role in intestinal peristalsis and maintaining the structural integrity of the intestinal wall. They are also implicated in gastrointestinal disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome and intestinal obstruction. Smooth muscle actin (SMA) is expressed in these cells. Each lot undergoes rigorous screening and isolation procedures, and is rigorously tested to ensure it is free of contamination from Mycoplasma, Fungi, Yeast, and Bacteria.

Rat Small Intestine Smooth Muscle Cells serve as an in vitro model to study intestinal motility disorders, such as necrotizing enterocolitis. For example, by analyzing molecular pathways of smooth muscle contraction and relaxation, they enhance understanding of intestinal physiological functions and pathological changes, aiding in exploring treatments for neonatal intestinal motility-related diseases.
