The orderly movement of a muscle cell from one site to another, often during the development of a multicellular organism. The directed movement of a motile cell or organism, or the directed growth of a cell guided by a specific chemical concentration gradient. Movement may be towards a higher concentration (positive chemotaxis) or towards a lower concentration (negative chemotaxis). The orderly movement of a cell from one site to another, often during the development of a multicellular organism or multicellular structure. The directed movement of a motile cell guided by a specific chemical concentration gradient. Movement may be towards a higher concentration (positive chemotaxis) or towards a lower concentration (negative chemotaxis). The directed movement of a smooth muscle cell in response to an external stimulus. The orderly movement of a smooth muscle cell from one site to another, often during the development of a multicellular organism. A change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a chemical stimulus. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate, or extent of smooth muscle cell chemotaxis. Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of smooth muscle cell chemotaxis. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of smooth muscle cell chemotaxis.
