smooth muscle cell
A smooth muscle cell is a type of involuntary non-striated muscle cell, found within the walls of organs and structures such as the esophagus, stomach, intestines, bronchi, uterus, urethra, and blood vessels. Unlike skeletal muscle cells, smooth muscle cells are not under conscious control. They are responsible for the contractility of hollow organs, contributing to processes such as the regulation of blood flow, digestion, and giving birth.
