Microanatomy of Muscles Anatomy & Physiology Class Three Main Muscle Types Objectives: By the end of this presentation you will have the information to: 1. Describe the 3 main types of muscles. 2. Detail the functions of the muscle system. 3. Correctly label the parts of a myocyte (muscle cell) 4. Identify the levels of organization in a skeletal muscle from organ to myosin. 5. Explain how a muscle contracts utilizing the correct terminology of the sliding filament theory. 6. Contrast and compare cardiac and smooth muscle with skeletal muscle. Major Functions: Muscle System 1. Moving the skeletal system and posture. 2. Passing food through the digestive system & constriction of other internal organs. 3. Production of body heat. 4. Pumping the blood throughout the body. 5. Communication - writing and verbal Specialized Cells (Myocytes) ~ Contractile Cells Can shorten along one or more planes because of specialized cell membrane (sarcolemma) and specialized cytoskeleton. Specialized Structures found in Myocytes Sarcolemma: The cell membrane of a muscle cell Transverse tubule: a tubular invagination of the sarcolemma of skeletal or cardiac muscle fibers that surrounds myofibrils; involved in transmitting the action potential from the sarcolemma to the interior of the myofibril. Sarcoplasmic Reticulum: The special type of smooth endoplasmic Myofibrils: reticulum found in smooth and a contractile fibril of skeletal muscle, composed striated muscle fibers whose function mainly of actin and myosin is to store and release calcium ions. Multiple Nuclei (skeletal) & many mitochondria Skeletal Muscle - Microscopic Anatomy A whole skeletal muscle (such as the biceps brachii) is considered an organ of the muscular system. Each organ consists of skeletal muscle tissue, connective tissue, nerve tissue, and blood or vascular tissue. -
VIEW Open Access Muscle Spindle Function in Healthy and Diseased Muscle Stephan Kröger* and Bridgette Watkins
Kröger and Watkins Skeletal Muscle (2021) 11:3 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13395-020-00258-x REVIEW Open Access Muscle spindle function in healthy and diseased muscle Stephan Kröger* and Bridgette Watkins Abstract Almost every muscle contains muscle spindles. These delicate sensory receptors inform the central nervous system (CNS) about changes in the length of individual muscles and the speed of stretching. With this information, the CNS computes the position and movement of our extremities in space, which is a requirement for motor control, for maintaining posture and for a stable gait. Many neuromuscular diseases affect muscle spindle function contributing, among others, to an unstable gait, frequent falls and ataxic behavior in the affected patients. Nevertheless, muscle spindles are usually ignored during examination and analysis of muscle function and when designing therapeutic strategies for neuromuscular diseases. This review summarizes the development and function of muscle spindles and the changes observed under pathological conditions, in particular in the various forms of muscular dystrophies. Keywords: Mechanotransduction, Sensory physiology, Proprioception, Neuromuscular diseases, Intrafusal fibers, Muscular dystrophy In its original sense, the term proprioception refers to development of head control and walking, an early im- sensory information arising in our own musculoskeletal pairment of fine motor skills, sensory ataxia with un- system itself [1–4]. Proprioceptive information informs steady gait, increased stride-to-stride variability in force us about the contractile state and movement of muscles, and step length, an inability to maintain balance with about muscle force, heaviness, stiffness, viscosity and ef- eyes closed (Romberg’s sign), a severely reduced ability fort and, thus, is required for any coordinated move- to identify the direction of joint movements, and an ab- ment, normal gait and for the maintenance of a stable sence of tendon reflexes [6–12]. -

Characterization of Cecal Smooth Muscle Contraction in Laying Hens
veterinary sciences Communication Characterization of Cecal Smooth Muscle Contraction in Laying Hens Katrin Röhm 1, Martin Diener 2 , Korinna Huber 1 and Jana Seifert 1,* 1 Institute of Animal Science, University of Hohenheim, 70593 Stuttgart, Germany; [email protected] (K.R.); [email protected] (K.H.) 2 Institute of Veterinary Physiology and Biochemistry, Justus-Liebig University, 35392 Gießen, Germany; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The ceca play an important role in the physiology of the gastrointestinal tract in chickens. Nevertheless, there is a gap of knowledge regarding the functionality of the ceca in poultry, especially with respect to physiological cecal smooth muscle contraction. The aim of the current study is the ex vivo characterization of cecal smooth muscle contraction in laying hens. Muscle strips of circular cecal smooth muscle from eleven hens are prepared to investigate their contraction ex vivo. Contraction is detected using an isometric force transducer, determining its frequency, height and intensity. Spontaneous contraction of the chicken cecal smooth muscle and the influence of buffers (calcium-free buffer and potassium-enriched buffer) and drugs (carbachol, nitroprusside, isoprenaline and Verapamil) affecting smooth muscle contraction at different levels are characterized. A decrease in smooth muscle contraction is observed when a calcium-free buffer is used. Carbachol causes an increase in smooth muscle contraction, whereas atropine inhibits contraction. Nitroprusside, isoprenaline and Verapamil result in a depression of smooth muscle contraction. In conclusion, the present results confirm a similar contraction behavior of cecal smooth muscles in laying hens as Citation: Röhm, K.; Diener, M.; shown previously in other species. -

With the advent of new and emerging molecular technologies in the 21st century, the significance of both vascular and neuronal satellitosis by neoplastic cells offers intriguing possibilities into further clarifying the development, pathobiology and therapy of malignant glioma through closer investigation into the nature of these histological hallmarks. -
Skeletal Muscle Physiology
This document was created by Alex Yartsev ([email protected]); if I have used your data or images and forgot to reference you, please email me. Skeletal Muscle Physiology First of all, which muscle is which - Skeletal muscle: o Well-developed cross-striations o Does not contract in absence of a nerve stimulus o The individual muscle fibers DO NOT connect functionally or anatomically (i.e. they don’t form a single sheet of cells, and one fiber’s action potential wont get transmitted to the next) o Generally, skeletal muscle is under voluntary control - Cardiac muscle: o Also has cross-striations o Is functionally syncytial: cells are connected well enough to conduct action potentials to one another o Can contract on its own, without stimulus (but this is under some control via the autonomic nervous system, which modulates its activity) - Smooth muscle: o Has no cross-striations o Two broad types: . VISCERAL or “unitary” smooth muscle: Functionally syncytial, action potentials propagate from cell to cell Contains pacemakers which discharge irregularly, but remains under control of the autonomic nervous system Found in most hollow viscera . MULTI-UNIT SMOOTH MUSCLE Found in the eye and some other locations Does NOT activate spontaneously SKELETAL MUSCLE ORGANIZATION - Each muscle is a bundle of fibers - Each fiber is a long, multinucleated single cell - Each fiber is surrounded by a SARCOLEMMA- the cell membrane - There are NO SYNCYTIAL BRIDGES between the cells. When one cell goes off, the others don’t follow. TRANSVERSE TUBULES: T-tubules, invaginations of SARCOLEMMA: the muscle cell membrane the sarcolemma, they form part of the T-system; the space inside is an extension of the extracellular space. -
