The Anatomy of Skeletal or Striated Muscle
• Mature skeletal or striated muscle cells are the longest and most slender muscle fibers, ranging in size from 1 to 50 mm in length and 40 to 50 micrometers in diameter.
• Because of these unique structure of the cell, that is, their length being much greater than their width, skeletal muscle fibers.
• In addition each muscle cell or fiber is multinucleated and is surrounded by a special cell membrane. This cell membrane is electrically polarized and is called a sarcolemma. The sarcolemma is surrounded by the first of three types of connective tissue found in a muscle the endomysium, which is delicate connective tissue.
• We see that the entire muscle consist of a number of skeletal muscle bundles called fasciculi. Each individual bundle of muscle cells, or fascicle, is surrounded by another layer of connective tissue called the perimysium. This is visible to the naked eye. This perimysium connects with the coarse irregular connective tissue that surrounds the whole muscle called the epimysium, these three layers of connective tussue act like cement holding all of the muscle cells and their bundles together.
• In addition, a layer of areolar tissue covers the whole muscle trunk on top of the epimysium and is called the fascia.
INTRODUCTIONMuscles make up about 40% to 50% of
your body’s weight. They allow us to perform extraordinary physical feats of endurance(running, playing sports) and grace(ballet, figure skating). When they contract, they bring about movement of the body as a whole and cause our internal organs to function properly. Muscles of the diaphragm, chest, and abdomen allow us to breath.
Types of Muscles
• Skeletal or striated• -is voluntary• -that is, we can control its contraction.• Under microscope skeletal muscle cells are
multinucleated and striated.• We can see alternating dark and light bands.
• Smooth muscle• Is involuntary• Uninucleated• And non striated• Found in places like digestive tract.
• Cardiac muscle• Is involuntary• Striated• Uninucleated• Found only in the heart
SMOOTH MUSCLEIt is found in hollow structure of the
body.
SMOOTH MUSCLE CELL- contains a single large nucleus- It is involuntary, uni nucleated and non-
striated.
In hollow structure smooth muscle cell is arranged in two layers:A. outer longitudinal B. inner circular layer
It produce a slower contraction than skeletal muscle BUT smooth muscle contraction allow greater extensibility of the muscle.
CARDIAC MUSCLE
Cardiac Muscle cell can receive an impulse contract, immediately relax and receive another impulse.
Naming and action of skeletal muscle
• Action• Shape• Origin and insertion• Location• Direction of their fibers• Division
• FLEXORS - muscles that bend a limb at a joint
• EXTENSORS - straighten a limb• ABDUCTORS - move a limb away from the
midline• ADDUCTORS - bring a limb toward the
midline of the body• ROTATORS - revolve a limb around the
axis• DORSIFLEXORS - muscles that raise the
foot
• PLANTAR FLEXORS- lower the foot.• SUPINATORS- muscles that turn the palm
of hand upward.• PRONATORS- muscles that turn the palm
of hand downward.• LEVATORS- raise a part of the body.• DEPRESSOR- muscles that lower a part of the
body.• PRIME MOVERS are muscles that bring about
action and those that assist the prime movers are SYNERGIST.
The Physiology of Muscle Contraction
Motor Unit
Motor Unit
• On the average, 1:150 muscle cells.
• Properties of muscle cells– Excitability– Conductivity– Contractility– Elasticity
• Muscle contraction is caused by the interactions of three factors:– Neuroelectrical factors– Chemical interactions– Energy sources
Muscle Anatomy
Neuroelectrical Factors
• Sarcollema– Concentration of sodium and potassium ions
Resting potentialInside ↑K⁺, Outside ↑Na⁺
Acetylcholine(Ach) – neurotransmitter
Sodium-potassium pump
Action potential Sarrcollema (muscle cell membrane)T tubulesSarcoplasmic reticulum - Ca⁺⁺myofibrils
actin troponinmyosin tropomyosin
Chemical Interactions
• Ach→ release of Ca⁺⁺→ Ca⁺⁺ + troponin• Actin + myosin + ATP → actomyosin + ADP +
PO4
Energy Sources
• Chemical Energy (ATP) → Mechanical Energy (contraction)
• ATP by glycolysis, Kreb’s cycle, electron transport, breakdown of phosphocreatine
Energy Sources
• Glucose + 2 ATP → CO2 + H2O + 38 ATP (aerobic)
• Glucose + 2 ATP → 2 lactic acid + 2 ATP (anaerobic)
• Phosphocreatine + ADP ↔ creatine + ATP• Free fatty acids → CO2 + H2O + ATP
Muscle Tone
Muscle Tone
• Tone - steady or constant state of partial contraction is maintained in a muscle.–Maintain body posture
