EOG8T1M3G GO:0005576 14/33 extracellular region cellular_component "The space external to the outermost structure of a cell. For cells without external protective or external encapsulating structures this refers to space outside of the plasma membrane. This term covers the host cell environment outside an intracellular parasite." [GOC:go_curators] EOG8T1M3G GO:0007218 8/33 neuropeptide signaling pathway biological_process "The series of molecular signals generated as a consequence of a peptide neurotransmitter binding to a cell surface receptor." [GOC:mah, ISBN:0815316194] EOG8T1M3G GO:0006939 7/33 smooth muscle contraction biological_process "A process in which force is generated within smooth muscle tissue, resulting in a change in muscle geometry. Force generation involves a chemo-mechanical energy conversion step that is carried out by the actin/myosin complex activity, which generates force through ATP hydrolysis. Smooth muscle differs from striated muscle in the much higher actin/myosin ratio, the absence of conspicuous sarcomeres and the ability to contract to a much smaller fraction of its resting length."

[ISBN:0198547684] EOG8T1M3G GO:0006940 1/33 regulation of smooth muscle contraction biological_process "Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of smooth muscle contraction." [GOC:go_curators] EOG8T1M3G GO:0007204 1/33 positive regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration biological_process "Any process that increases the concentration of calcium ions in the cytosol." [GOC:ai] EOG8T1M3G GO:0005184 1/33 neuropeptide hormone activity molecular_function "The action characteristic of a neuropeptide hormone, any peptide hormone that acts in the central nervous system. A neuropeptide is any of several types of molecules found in brain tissue, composed of short chains of amino acids; they include endorphins, enkephalins, vasopressin, and others. They are often localized in axon terminals at synapses and are classified as putative neurotransmitters, although some are also hormones."
