fushion to form long cells.
myoblasts are most active during development but exist as satellite cells during adult life
204
Sarcomere
repeating units in striated muscle; basic unit of contraction.
Relaxed state is 2.5 um; but continually change length depending on level of contraction.
Bring Z discs together
205
Thin Filament
made of actin; specifically F actin
1 um in length
double stranded and helical
bound to two regulatory proteins troposmyosin and troponin
206
Tropomyosin
rod shaped regulatory protein that binds to 6-7 actin
covers actin binding site to myosin when relaxed.
When calcium binds to troponin, induces change in tropomysin and exposes actin and mysoin binding sites.
207
Troponin
heterotrimer that binds to one end of tropomyosin
Ca sensitive
Ca causes binding to troponin and undergoes conformational change to induce change in tropomysoin and facilitate actin binding to myosin.
208
Thick filaments
myosin (1 pair heavy chain and 2 pairs light chains)
situated in a staggered foramtion
1.6 um long and contains 300-400 myosins
Region of ATPase activity
209
When does the power stroke occur?
moment actin binds to mysoin.
at resting state, Myosin is locked in spring form.
ATP binds to release myosin from actin.
ATP hydrolysis puts myosin in high energy state.
210
how big is a power stroke?
8 nm
211
Different of myosin turn over in fast vs slow twitch muscle
Fast: 20 times per second
slow: 5 times per second
212
Cardiac muscle contraction
occurs in process similar to skeletal muscle
213
Smooth Muscle Contraction
contains no troponin
Calcium binds to calmodulin, which together activate CaMKinase. This phosphorylates light chain of mysoin.
Phosphorylated myosin binds to actin to generate force
relaxation occurs by dephosphorylation.
slower process than in smooth muscle
214
Dystrophin
large filamentous protein associated with actin near PM.
| links cytoskeleton with ECM
215
Titin
maintains highly ordered sarcomeres
| links myosin Z disk
216
Nebulin
associates with actin and keeps thin filaments organized
| passive tension in muscle
217
Alpha-Actinin
cross links actin filaments
218
Tropomodulin
caps length of actin filament - end
219
CapZ
caps to + end of actin
220
Hypertrophic Cardiomyophathy
50% of sudden cardiac death
left ventricular thickening
Mutation in myosin heavy chain that binds to actin and ATP
due to missense mutations in many different genes.
221
Phenotype of Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Cardiomyocyote hypertrophy
Myocyte disarray --> compromises contraction
Fibrosis --> arrhythmia
Displastic intracmyocardial arterioles --> ischemia
222
Symptoms of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
usually asymptomatic
| but dyspnea, angina, syncope, cardiac death (enriched in athletes)
223
Clinical Presentation of Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Carciac murmer, cardiac pump failure (dyspnea, angina) arrhythmia (syncope, sudden death), family screening
224
Rate of diffusion compared to distance
rate decreases by distance squared
225
Paravlbumin
binds and releases Ca and diffuses father than Ca
| mechanism to increase evenness of contraction
226
Myoglobin
binds to O2 and stores O2
227
What replenishes ATP during metabolic demand in muscles
Creatinine and phosphocreatine
228
Transverse Tubules
deep invagination of the sarcolemma, which is the plasma membrane of skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle cells
allows for propagation of signal along length and depth at the same time.
229
Sarcoplasmic Reticulum
specialized type of smooth ER that regulates the calcium ion concentration in the cytoplasm of striated muscle cells
puts calcium release within 1 um of all muscle cells.
uniform calcium release
230
Excitation Contraction Coupling in Skeletal Muscle
Action potential in motor nerve causes ACh release to activate ACh channel to open and depolarization. Depolarization popogates and occurs in T tubules.
Protein links at T-tubule/SR junction *(triad) are altered to allow Ca release from RyR channels.
Ca binds to troponin and alters Tropomysoin conformation and allows actin to bind.
As long as Ca and ATP are present, contraction continues.
231
When does relaxation occurs in skeletal muscle
Ca ATPases pumps Ca back into SR and tropomyosin blocks myosin actin binding site.
232
DHPR
Dihyropyridine receptor
| voltage gated channel in T tubule
233
RyR
Ca release channel in SR
| in Skeletal muscle: DHPR conformational change due to depolarization induces a change in RyR to open and release Ca.
234
Malignant Hyperthermia
mutation in RyR to cause prolonged Calcium release.
Catastrophic rise in body temperature when exposed to volatile anesthetics because of heat generated to pump Ca back into SR
Dominant disorder
Environmental disorder: okay unless exposed to the anesthetic
235
Volatile Anesthetics in malignant hyperthermia
halothane
| succinylcholine
236
Phenotype of malignant hyperthermia
hypermetabolism, skeletal muscle damage, hyperthermia
237
Specific clinical signs of maligant hyperthermia
muscle rigidity (masseter spasm), increased CO2 production, rhabodomyolysis (muscle break down) hyperthermia
238
nonspecific signs of malignant hyperthermia
tachycardia, tachypnea, acidosis, hyperkalemia
239

Dantroelene 2.5 mg/kg to close RyR channel
240
Muscular Dysgenesis
lack of DHPR in skeletal muscle
241
Myostatin deficient
mutation that lacks control of skeletal muscle growth. Causes huge muscles
possible treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy
242
Muscular Dystrophy - Duchenne
cardiac myopathy is most common cause of death
high creatinine levels 1000s
mutation in dystrophin
243
Rigor Conformation
myosin is stuck to Actin because not enough ATP is represent for release
244
Cardiac E-C Coupling
same as skeletal, but Ca release is required from DHPR to bind to Ryr to trigger Ca release
245
E-C coupling in smooth
so thin that Ca easily diffuses throughout cell during entry
246
Motor units
muscle fibers innervated by a single motor neuron
| vary in size depending on movement required.
247
Muscle fiber types
due to isoenzyme variation, myosin variation, proportion of mitochondira, oxidative enzymes, resistance to fatigue, speed of contraction
248
Slow Muscle fibers
maintained contraction
| Red in color due to myoglobin content
249
Fast muscle fibers
high glycolytic content
| rapid bursts of activity
250
Intermediate fibers
both glycolytic and oxidative enzymes
251
Gradiation of Tension
Increase frequency of AP
Recruitment of motor units
(smooth and cardiac depend on NT and hormone-like molecules)
252
Satellite cells
stems cells that are source of new myoblasts to repair injured muscle.
responsible to fibroblast growth factor, insulin GF, hepatocyte GF, NFKB, NO, myostatin
LIF tirggers proliferation
IL6 is secreted by exercise and triggers satellite cells.
253
Cardiac and Smooth muscle repair
fibroblasts generate scar tissue in heart
| smooth cells dedifferentiate and enter mitosis to regenerate new muscle cells
254
changes to muscle with exercise
increases cross section
increase myosin and actin, but cells to not replicate.
NO real change in fast vs slow twitch, thus athletes are born not made.
255
Fatigue in muscles
(1) decreased propagation of the action potential into the t tubule
(2) decreased release of Ca+2 from the SR,
3) reduced effect of Ca+2 on the myofilament interaction
(4) elevated hydrogen and phosphate reduced force generation by the myofilaments
