title: Cell-to-cell coupling in the myometrium: Emil Bozler's prediction.
abstract: In this paper we have attempted to briefly review the studies which explain how the myometrium behaves as a functional syncytium. We believe that the gap junctions adequately explain the basis for cell-to-cell coupling as predicted by Emil Bozler fifty years ago.
