Completion of Skeletal Muscle and comparison to Smooth Muscle
Outline • Classification of Skeletal muscle • Slow twitch versus fast twitch • Oxidative versus glycolytic • Skeletal Muscle Genetic Diseases • Smooth Muscle • Types of smooth muscle cells • Smooth muscle contraction • Smooth muscle relaxation • Smooth muscle compared to Skeletal Muscle
Classification of skeletal muscle • Speed of contraction • Resistance to Fatigue
Which type of muscle fibers are used for these two activities? Pianist Weight lifting Fast Twitch Slow Twitch
Muscular Disease • Muscular Dystrophy • Sex linked recessive • Dystrophin is mutated • Myasthenia Gravis • Decreased number of acetylcholine receptors
SMOOTH MUSCLE CONTRACTION NO SARCOMERES! Presence of Dense Bodies EXTRA CALCIUM STORAGE SITES
SMOOTH MUSCLE CONTRACTION at the MOLECULAR LEVEL • No sacromeres • No troponin
Increase cytosolic calcium Calcium binds calmodulin Ca++Calmodulin activates MLCK MLCK activates myosin ATPase Shortening Increase of cytosolic calcium Calcium binds troponin Alteration in troponin moves tropomyosin Myosin binds actin Shortening Comparisons: Smooth versus Skeletal
