Connective Tissues of a Muscle
• Epimysium– covers whole muscle belly – blends into CT between muscles
• Perimysium– slightly thicker layer of connective tissue– surrounds bundle of cells called a fascicle
• Endomysium– thin areolar tissue around each cell– allows room for capillaries and nerve
fibers
![Page 7: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Location of Fascia
Superficial Fascia
Deep Fascia
• Deep fascia– found between adjacent muscles
• Superficial fascia (hypodermis)– adipose between skin and muscles

Muscle Attachments
• Tendon – bone to muscle• Aponeuroses- Flat sheetlike tendon
located beneath the scalp; also includes attachments in the abdominal, lumbar, hand and foot areas.
• Retinaculum – connective tissue that groups together several tendons from separate muscles – like a bracelet at the wrist.

11-11
Introduction to Muscle• Movement is a fundamental characteristic
of all living things• Cells capable of shortening and
converting the chemical energy of ATP into mechanical energy
• Types of muscle– skeletal, cardiac and smooth
• Physiology of skeletal muscle– basis of warm-up, strength, endurance and
fatigue
![Page 12: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
11-12
Characteristics of Muscle• Responsiveness (excitability)
– to chemical signals, stretch and electrical changes across the plasma membrane
• Conductivity– local electrical change triggers a wave of
excitation that travels along the muscle fiber• Contractility -- shortens when stimulated• Extensibility -- capable of being stretched• Elasticity -- returns to its original resting
length after being stretched
![Page 13: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
11-13
Skeletal Muscle• Voluntary striated muscle attached to
bones• Muscle fibers (myofibers) as long as 30
cm• Exhibits alternating light and dark
transverse bands or striations– reflects overlapping arrangement of
internal contractile proteins• Under conscious
control (voluntary)
![Page 14: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
11-14
Connective Tissue Elements• Attachments between muscle and bone
– endomysium, perimysium, epimysium, fascia, tendon
• Collagen is extensible and elastic– stretches slightly under tension and recoils
when released• protects muscle from injury• returns muscle to its resting length
• Elastic components– parallel components parallel muscle cells– series components joined to ends of muscle
![Page 15: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

The Muscle Fiber
Muscle Fiber
Skeletal Muscle Fiber
![Page 16: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
11-16
Muscle Fibers
• Multiple flattened nuclei inside cell membrane– fusion of multiple myoblasts during
development– unfused satellite cells nearby can multiply to
produce a small number of new myofibers • Sarcolemma has tunnel-like infoldings or
transverse (T) tubules that penetrate the cell– carry electric current to cell interior
![Page 17: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
11-17
Muscle Fibers 2
• Sarcoplasm is filled with – myofibrils (bundles of myofilaments)– glycogen for stored energy and myoglobin
for binding oxygen• Sarcoplasmic reticulum = smooth ER
– network around each myofibril– dilated end-sacs (terminal cisternea) store
calcium– triad = T tubule and 2 terminal cisternea
![Page 18: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
11-18
Thick Filaments
• Made of 200 to 500 myosin molecules– 2 entwined polypeptides (golf clubs)
• Arranged in a bundle with heads directed outward in a spiral array around the bundled tails– central area is a bare zone with no heads
![Page 19: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
11-19
Thin Filaments• Two intertwined strands fibrous (F) actin
– globular (G) actin with an active site• Groove holds tropomyosin molecules
– each blocking 6 or 7 active sites of G actins• One small, calcium-binding troponin
molecule on each tropomyosin molecule
![Page 20: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
11-20
Elastic Filaments
• Springy proteins called titin• Anchor each thick filament to Z disc• Prevents overstretching of sarcomere
![Page 21: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
11-21
Regulatory and Contractile Proteins
• Myosin and actin are contractile proteins• Tropomyosin and troponin = regulatory proteins
– switch that starts and stops shortening of muscle cell– contraction activated by release of calcium into sarcoplasm
and its binding to troponin, – troponin moves tropomyosin off the actin active sites
![Page 22: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
11-22
Overlap of Thick and Thin Filaments
![Page 23: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
11-23
Striations = Organization of Filaments• Dark A bands (regions) alternating with lighter I bands (regions)
– anisotrophic (A) and isotropic (I) stand for the way these regions affect polarized light
• A band is thick filament region– lighter, central H band area
contains no thin filaments• I band is thin filament region
– bisected by Z disc protein called connectin, anchoring elastic and thin filaments
– from one Z disc (Z line) to the next is a sarcomere
Sliding Filament
![Page 24: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
11-24
Striations and Sarcomeres
![Page 25: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
11-25
Relaxed and Contracted Sarcomeres
• Muscle cells shorten because their individual sarcomeres shorten – pulling Z discs closer together– pulls on sarcolemma
• Notice neither thick nor thin filaments change length during shortening
• Their overlap changes as sarcomeres shorten
![Page 26: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
11-26
Nerve-Muscle Relationships
• Skeletal muscle must be stimulated by a nerve or it will not contract
• Cell bodies of somatic motor neurons in brainstem or spinal cord
• Axons of somatic motor neurons = somatic motor fibers– terminal branches supply one muscle fiber
• Each motor neuron and all the muscle fibers it innervates = motor unit
![Page 27: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
11-27
Motor Units• A motor neuron and the muscle
fibers it innervates– dispersed throughout the muscle– when contract together causes weak
contraction over wide area– provides ability to sustain long-term
contraction as motor units take turns resting (postural control)
• Fine control– small motor units contain as few as
20 muscle fibers per nerve fiber– eye muscles
• Strength control– gastrocnemius muscle has 1000
fibers per nerve fiber
![Page 28: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
11-28
Neuromuscular Junctions (Synapse)
• Functional connection between nerve fiber and muscle cell
• Neurotransmitter (acetylcholine/ACh) released from nerve fiber stimulates muscle cell
• Components of synapse (NMJ)– synaptic knob is swollen end of nerve fiber (contains
ACh)– junctional folds region of sarcolemma
• increases surface area for ACh receptors• contains acetylcholinesterase that breaks down ACh and
causes relaxation– synaptic cleft = tiny gap between nerve and muscle
cells– Basal lamina = thin layer of collagen and glycoprotein
over all of muscle fiber

11-30
Neuromuscular Toxins• Pesticides (cholinesterase inhibitors)
– bind to acetylcholinesterase and prevent it from degrading ACh
– spastic paralysis and possible suffocation• Tetanus or lockjaw is spastic paralysis
caused by toxin of Clostridium bacteria– blocks glycine release in the spinal cord and
causes overstimulation of the muscles• Flaccid paralysis (limp muscles) due to
curare that competes with ACh– respiratory arrest
![Page 31: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
11-31
Electrically Excitable Cells• Plasma membrane is polarized or charged
– resting membrane potential due to Na+ outside of cell and K+ and other anions inside of cell
– difference in charge across the membrane = resting membrane potential (-90 mV cell)
• Stimulation opens ion gates in membrane– ion gates open (Na+ rushes into cell and K+
rushes out of cell)• quick up-and-down voltage shift = action potential
– spreads over cell surface as nerve signal
![Page 32: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
11-32
Muscle Contraction and Relaxation
• Four actions involved in this process– excitation = nerve action potentials lead to
action potentials in muscle fiber– excitation-contraction coupling = action
potentials on the sarcolemma activate myofilaments
– contraction = shortening of muscle fiber – relaxation = return to resting length
• Images will be used to demonstrate the steps of each of these actions
![Page 33: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

11-34
Excitation (steps 1 and 2)
• Nerve signal opens voltage-gated calcium channels. Calcium stimulates exocytosis of synaptic vesicles containing ACh = ACh release into synaptic cleft.
![Page 35: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
11-35
Excitation (steps 3 and 4)
Binding of ACh to receptor proteins opens Na+ and K+ channels resulting in jump in RMP from -90mV to +75mV forming an end-plate potential (EPP).
![Page 36: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
11-36
Excitation (step 5)
Voltage change in end-plate region (EPP) opens nearby voltage-gated channels producing an action potential
![Page 37: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

11-38
Excitation-Contraction Coupling (steps 6 and 7)
Action potential spreading over sarcolemma enters T tubules -- voltage-gated channels open in T tubules causing calcium gates to open in SR
![Page 39: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
11-39
Excitation-Contraction Coupling (steps 8 and 9)
• Calcium released by SR binds to troponin• Troponin-tropomyosin complex changes shape
and exposes active sites on actin
![Page 40: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
11-40
Contraction (steps 10 and 11)
• Myosin ATPase in myosin head hydrolyzes an ATP molecule, activating the head and “cocking”it in an extended position
• It binds to actin active site forming a cross-bridge
![Page 41: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
11-41
Contraction (steps 12 and 13)• Power stroke =
myosin head releasesADP and phosphate as it flexes pulling the thin filament past the thick
• With the binding of more ATP, the myosin head extends to attach to a new active site– half of the heads are bound to a thin
filament at one time preventing slippage– thin and thick filaments do not become
shorter, just slide past each other (sliding filament theory)
![Page 42: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
11-42
Relaxation (steps 14 and 15)
Nerve stimulation ceases and acetylcholinesterase removes ACh from receptors. Stimulation of the muscle cell ceases.
![Page 43: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
11-43
Relaxation (step 16)
• Active transport needed to pump calcium back into SR to bind to calsequestrin
• ATP is needed for muscle relaxation as well as muscle contraction

Relaxation (steps 17 and 18)
• Loss of calcium from sarcoplasm moves troponin-tropomyosin complex over active sites– stops the production or maintenance of tension
• Muscle fiber returns to its resting length due to recoil of series-elastic components and contraction of antagonistic muscles

Rigor Mortis
• Stiffening of the body beginning 3 to 4 hours after death
• Deteriorating sarcoplasmic reticulum releases calcium
• Calcium activates myosin-actin cross-bridging and muscle contracts, but can not relax.
• Muscle relaxation requires ATP and ATP production is no longer produced after death
• Fibers remain contracted until myofilaments decay

Length-Tension Relationship• Amount of tension generated depends on length
of muscle before it was stimulated– length-tension relationship (see graph next slide)
• Overly contracted (weak contraction results)– thick filaments too close to Z discs and can’t slide
• Too stretched (weak contraction results)– little overlap of thin and thick does not allow for very
many cross bridges too form• Optimum resting length produces greatest force
when muscle contracts– central nervous system maintains optimal length
producing muscle tone or partial contraction

Muscle Twitch in Frog
• Threshold = voltage producing an action potential– a single brief stimulus at that
voltage produces a quick cycle of contraction and relaxation called a twitch (lasting less than 1/10 second)
• A single twitch contraction is not strong enough to do any useful work

Muscle Twitch in Frog 2
• Phases of a twitch contraction– latent period (2 msec delay)
• only internal tension is generated• no visible contraction occurs since
only elastic components are being stretched
– contraction phase• external tension develops as muscle
shortens– relaxation phase
• loss of tension and return to resting length as calcium returns to SR

Contraction Strength of Twitches
• Threshold stimuli produces twitches• Twitches unchanged despite increased
voltage• “Muscle fiber obeys an all-or-none law”
contracting to its maximum or not at all– not a true statement since twitches vary in
strength• depending upon, Ca2+ concentration, previous stretch
of the muscle, temperature, pH and hydration
• Closer stimuli produce stronger twitches

Recruitment and Stimulus Intensity
• Stimulating the whole nerve with higher and higher voltage produces stronger contractions
• More motor units are being recruited– called multiple motor unit summation– lift a glass of milk versus a whole gallon of milk

11-52
Twitch and Treppe Contractions
• Muscle stimulation at variable frequencies– low frequency
• each stimulus produces an identical twitch response– moderate frequency
• each twitch has time to recover but develops more tension than the one before (treppe phenomenon)
– calcium was not completely put back into SR– heat of tissue increases myosin ATPase efficiency

11-53
Incomplete and Complete Tetanus
• Higher frequency stimulation – generates gradually more strength of contraction– each stimuli arrives before last one recovers
• temporal summation or wave summation– incomplete tetanus = sustained fluttering contractions
• Maximum frequency stimulation– muscle has no time to relax at all– twitches fuse into smooth, prolonged contraction called
complete tetanus– rarely occurs in the body

ATP Sources
• All muscle contraction depends on ATP• Pathways of ATP synthesis
– anaerobic fermentation (ATP production limited)• without oxygen, produces toxic lactic acid
– aerobic respiration (more ATP produced)• requires continuous oxygen supply, produces H2O and
CO2

Immediate Energy Needs
• Short, intense exercise (100 m dash)– oxygen need is supplied by
myoglobin• Phosphagen system
– myokinase transfers Pi groups from one ADP to another forming ATP
– creatine kinase transfers Pi groups from creatine phosphate to make ATP
• Result is power enough for 1 minute brisk walk or 6 seconds of sprinting
![Page 56: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
11-56
Short-Term Energy Needs
• Glycogen-lactic acid system takes over– produces ATP for 30-40 seconds of
maximum activity• playing basketball or running around baseball
diamonds – muscles obtain glucose from blood and
stored glycogen
![Page 57: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
11-57
Long-Term Energy Needs
• Aerobic respiration needed for prolonged exercise– Produces 36 ATPs/glucose molecule
• After 40 seconds of exercise, respiratory and cardiovascular systems must deliver enough oxygen for aerobic respiration– oxygen consumption rate increases for first 3-4
minutes and then levels off to a steady state• Limits are set by depletion of glycogen and
blood glucose, loss of fluid and electrolytes

Oxygen Debt• Heavy breathing after strenuous exercise
– known as excess postexercise oxygen consumption (EPOC)
– typically about 11 liters extra is consumed• Purposes for extra oxygen
– replace oxygen reserves (myoglobin, blood hemoglobin, in air in the lungs and dissolved in plasma)
– replenishing the phosphagen system– reconverting lactic acid to glucose in kidneys and
liver– serving the elevated metabolic rate that occurs as
long as the body temperature remains elevated by exercise

Slow- and Fast-Twitch Fibers
• Slow oxidative, slow-twitch fibers– more mitochondria, myoglobin and
capillaries– adapted for aerobic respiration and
resistant to fatigue– soleus and postural muscles of the
back (100msec/twitch)
![Page 60: Chapter 10instructors.butlercc.edu/sforrest/apch10-11fa08.pdf• A band is thick filament region – lighter, central H band area contains no thin filaments • I band is thin filament](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041908/5e65830edfb8264d040f992a/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
11-60
Slow and Fast-Twitch Fibers
• Fast glycolytic, fast-twitch fibers– rich in enzymes for phosphagen and
glycogen-lactic acid systems– sarcoplasmic reticulum releases calcium
quickly so contractions are quicker (7.5 msec/twitch)
– extraocular eye muscles, gastrocnemius and biceps brachii
• Proportions genetically determined
