vesamicol and Muscle Contraction

vesamicol has been researched along with Muscle Contraction in 6 studies

vesamicol: RN given refers to parent cpd; structure

Muscle Contraction: A process leading to shortening and/or development of tension in muscle tissue. Muscle contraction occurs by a sliding filament mechanism whereby actin filaments slide inward among the myosin filaments.
