Functional asymmetry in the innervation of smooth muscle organs.
We studied functional asymmetry in the innervation of smooth muscle organs (right and left ureter, and right and left fallopian tubes). Asymmetry in the innervation of the right and left ureter is provided by activation of the purinergic system. Asymmetry in the innervation of the fallopian tubes is determined by the purinergic and serotoninergic mechanisms.
