This paper introduces EMMIs, engineered myometrial microtissues, to directly measure oxytocin-induced contractility and show that prolonged oxytocin exposure reduces contractile force.

This study introduces an immune-competent colon assembloid model to investigate how neuroinflammation affects colonic motility, finding impaired neuronal regeneration and smooth muscle remodeling as key mechanisms.
