    1. Chapter 10 Muscle Tissue Muscle tissue functions Movement Posture Joint stabilization Heat generation

    2. Muscle tissue properties Contractile Excitable Extensible Elastic

    3. Muscle tissue types Skeletal Striated, voluntary Cardiac Heart, striated, involuntary Smooth Nonstriated, involuntary

    4. Muscle tissue terminology Fiber – skeletal, cardiac & smooth muscle cell Myofilaments Actin – thin filaments Myosin – thick filaments Sarcolemma – plasma membrane Sarcoplasm – cytoplasm

    5. Skeletal muscle CT Epimysium – surrounds entire muscle/organ Perimysium – surrounds muscle fascicle Endomysium – surrounds individual muscle fiber

    6. Skeletal muscle fiber Cylindrical 10-100 ?m diameter Varied length – up to entire muscle Formed by cell fusion Multinucleated Peripheral nucleus Striated LM Demonstration

    7. Myofibrils Bundles of myofilaments Z discs A band – actin & myosin overlap I band – actin only H zone – myosin only Sarcomere – Z to Z Striations – alignment of myofilaments & myofibrils

    8. Sliding filament theory Muscle contracts by actin and myosin sliding past each other Myosin forms cross-bridges that attach to actin Cross bridges all swing in same direction and pull actin along Increased overlap of filaments results in contraction of muscle

    9. Sliding filament theory Actin and myosin do not shorten A band does not change I band shortens Sarcomere shortens

    10. The NMJ Neuromuscular Junction (pp. 401-402) Axon terminal Mitochondria Synaptic vesicles – ACh Synaptic cleft Motor end plate AChR AP to muscle fiber

    11. T tubules Invaginations of sarcolemma Runs between myofibrils Conducts electrical impulses from sarcolemma Excites SR to release Ca++

    12. Sarcoplasmic reticulum SR surrounds each myofibril Stores Ca++ Release Ca++ for contraction Ca++ uptake for relaxation

    13. Muscle contraction AP to axon terminal ACh released AChR activated Muscle excited Excitation travels down t-tubule SR releases Ca++ Ca++ activates sliding filament process Muscle contracts http://www.blackwellpublishing.com/matthews/myosin.html

    14. Motor Unit Definition: a motor neuron and all the muscle fibers it innervates. When a motor neuron fires, all muscle fibers in the motor unit contract. All or none principle A motor unit may contain hundreds to four muscle fibers (average ~ 150) Each muscle fibers receives one NMJ

    15. Summary: skeletal muscle fibers

    16. Cardiac muscle Only in heart Sliding filament theory Striated No NMJ

    17. Cardiac muscle cells 15 ?m wide X 100 ?m long Branched Intercalated discs Desmosomes adhesion Gap junctions transmit electrical impulses Forms two networks – atrial and ventricular

    18. Cardiac muscle cells Central 1-2 nuclei Mitochondria – numerous Less SR Fewer T tubules Myofibrils Sarcomeres A band I band Z disc H zone Striated

    19. Smooth muscle Six major locations Blood vessels Respiratory system Digestive system Urinary system Reproductive system Eye (lens and iris) Siding filament theory applies Actin & myosin No myofibrils – no striations

    20. Smooth muscle fibers Spindle shaped 2-10 ?m diameter 20-200 ?m long Nonstriated Central nucleus Arranged in sheets Usually in layers around a tube Peristalsis - waves of contraction to propel contents along tube

    21. Smooth muscle properties Slower to contract vs. skeletal muscle Slower to relax vs. skeletal muscle Can maintain contraction longer Resistant to fatigue Unconscious control ANS – autonomic nervous system Stretch Hormones

    22. Smooth muscle organization Single unit innervation Smooth muscle fibers connected by gap junctions Network receives single innervation Coordinated contraction Multiunit innervation Each fiber innervated Locations Iris of eye Arrector pili muscle of skin
