11. The activated stellate cell is characterized by proliferation, contractility , and chemotaxis. 12. The source of cytoskeletal traction is actomyosin contractility . 13. The heart rate and contractility go back down over time and blood pressure decreases. 14. Thus, it increases heart rate and contractility . 15. These substrates, once phosphorylated, regulate actin filament organization and contractility as follows: 16. This produces bradycardia, hypotension, depressed myocardial contractility , conduction delay, arrhythmias& 17. Disopyramide has a negative inotropic effect on the ventricular myocardium, significantly decreasing the contractility . 18. The contractility of stress fibers within the cell will therefore help to determine cellular morphogenesis. 19. Stress causes increased bp due to both vasoconstriction ( higher resistance ) an increased contractility . 20. Overexpression of cMLCK increases cell contractility .
