Lab-Muscle-2018.Pdf Introduction Remember those four Basic Tissues? Here they are again: 1. Epithelial tissue 2. Connective tissues 3. Muscle tissue 4. Nervous tissue During this lab you will learn about the third Basic Tissues: Muscle. Muscle comes in three different flavors: smooth, cardiac and skeletal. You need to be able to recognize each type of muscle and also differentiate from other tissues that it may easily be confused with (such as connective tissue), which takes practice. Learning objectives and activities Using the Virtual Slidebox: A Identify the connective tissue component of skeletal muscle Examine the organization of connective tissue within a whole skeletal muscle. B Differentiate between muscle types Identify and distinguish between smooth, skeletal and cardiac muscle histologically in both longitudinal and transverse section. C Decipher an EM of a sarcomere Decipher the pattern of proteins that form a sarcomere by interpreting an electron micrograph of skeletal muscle. D Test your skills Complete the self-quiz to test your understanding and master your learning. IDENTIFY THE CONNECTIVE TISSUE COMPONENT OF SKELETAL MUSCLE i. Tendon Examine Slide 1(15) to review the structure of a tendon. i. Dense regular connective tissue and accompanying fibroblasts. Recall why this organization is the most optimal for a tendon. ii. ii. Deep fascia Examine Slide 2a (13) and Slide 3a to approximate the location of deep fascia. iii. Dense regular/irregular connective tissue that separates muscles into compartments. This layer is best seen in gross anatomy and is not iv. observed in these specimens. iii. Epimysium Examine Slide 2a (13) and Slide 3a to locate the epimysium. Dense irregular connective tissue that fascicle v. surrounds individual skeletal muscles, it is continuous with the connective tissue of the tendon. It is poorly preserved in this section. iv. Perimysium Examine Slide 2a (13) and Slide 3a to locate the perimysium. Loose irregular connective tissue surrounding fiber myofibril a collection of muscle fibers called a fascicle. v. Endomysium Examine Slide 2a (13) and Slide 3a to locate the endomysium. Loose irregular connective tissue surrounding an individual muscle fiber. DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN MUSCLE TYPES 1. Skeletal muscle Observe these features of skeletal muscle cells in long Slide 2b (13) & cross Slide 2c (13) section Longitudinal section Cross section i. Cell size/shape Large: long and cylindrical Large: polyhedral ii. Nuclei Multinucleated: peripherally located Multinucleated: peripherally located iii. Striations Visible Not visible iv. Other features - Many capillaries in endomysium 2. Cardiac muscle Observe these features of cardiac muscle cells in long Slide 4a (31) & cross Slide 4b (31) section Longitudinal section Cross section i. Cell size/shape Short: branching cells Small: circular-polyhedral ii. Nuclei Mononucleated: centrally located Mononucleated: centrally located, few iii. Striations Visible Not visible iv. Other features Intercalated discs Plenty cytoplasm around nuclei 3. Smooth muscle Observe these features of smooth muscle cells in long Slide 5a (54) & cross Slide 5b (54) section Longitudinal section Cross section i. Cell size/shape Shortest: spindle-shaped cells Smallest: circular ii. Nuclei Mononucleated: centrally located Mononucleated: centrally located, many iii. Striations None None iv. Other features Cigar-shaped nuclei Sparse cytoplasm - nucleus occupies cell Compare and Contrast: It is essential that you can distinguish between the three muscle types. Compare and contrast the different features discussed above using Slide 6 (14) DECIPHER AN EM OF A SARCOMERE When observed in the microscope, longitudinally sectioned skeletal and cardiac muscle exhibit alternating dark and light banding known as cross-striations. The arrangement of actin and myosin in the myofibril creates this appearance. It is best seen in high resolution electron micrographs. A muscle fiber/cell Endomysium I-band A-band I-band H-zone Myofibril Z-line M-line Z-line Sarcomere Identify the different regions/bands in the diagram above, in the electron micrograph below or using Slide 7 and recall how these regions change in width/do not change in width during muscle contraction.

Although their biological importance is undisputed, the level of mesenchymal cell heterogeneity within and between organs, while appreciated, has not been analyzed in detail. Here, we compare single-cell transcriptional profiles of fibroblasts and vascular mural cells across four murine muscular organs: heart, skeletal muscle, intestine and bladder. We reveal gene expression signatures that demarcate fibroblasts from mural cells and provide molecular signatures for cell subtype identification. We observe striking inter- and intra-organ heterogeneity amongst the fibroblasts, primarily reflecting differences in the expression of extracellular matrix components. Fibroblast subtypes localize to discrete anatomical positions offering novel predictions about physiological function(s) and regulatory signaling circuits. Our data shed new light on the diversity of poorly defined classes of cells and provide a foundation for improved understanding of their roles in physiological and pathological processes. 1 Karolinska Institutet/AstraZeneca Integrated Cardio Metabolic Centre, Blickagången 6, SE-14157 Huddinge, Sweden.

Under the auspices of the World Association of Veterinary Anatomists (W.A.V.A.), the International Committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature (I.C.V.A.N.) appointed in Giessen, 1965, a Subcommittee on Histology and Embryology which started a working relation with the Subcommittee on Histology of the former International Anatomical Nomenclature Committee. In Mexico City, 1971, this Subcommittee presented a document entitled Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft as a basis for the continued work of the newly-appointed Subcommittee on Histological Nomenclature. This resulted in the editing of the Nomina Histologica Veterinaria: A Working Draft II (Toulouse, 1974), followed by preparations for publication of a Nomina Histologica Veterinaria.

  • MODULE 1: HISTOLOGY I an Introduction to Histology; Begin Epithelial Tissue and Connective Tissue
    MODULE 1: HISTOLOGY I An Introduction to Histology; Begin Epithelial Tissue and Connective Tissue Histology is the study of the microscopic anatomy of the cells and extracellular matrix that make up the tissues of the body. Using the physical appearance of cells and the matrix that surrounds them, the 10-100 trillion cells of the human body can be grouped into just four major tissue types: epithelial, connective, muscle and nervous tissues. In the Histology Modules of this course, you will learn to identify each of these tissue types as well as their subclasses and important structures. Chemical fixatives are used to preserve tissues when they are harvested. These fixatives are important to preserve the tissue from degradation. These chemicals also destroy the biological function of the cells, so all of the cells in any micrograph images that you see are dead. Biological tissue has little inherent color. In fact, in reality, the tissues that you study would look transparent or have various shades of gray for the most part. However, scientists use staining techniques to help highlight particular features of a tissue. As a student of histology, you should avoid the temptation to memorize tissues based on color. Since it is possible to stain the same tissue with a variety of different colors, you could be easily fooled if you trained yourself to recognize color as the major feature of tissues that you study. The wiser approach would be to carefully learn the shapes and physical characteristics other than color when studying histology. Students who memorize color as the main characteristic to trigger their memory will be disappointed when the exam does not maintain color schemes.
