Muscles Flashcards
(40 cards)
* Contraction of muscle cells depends on
- Interaction of actin and myosin
- Regulation of cellular calcium levels.
* Viceral striated muscle
*Myoblasts are derived from multipotential myogenic stem cells from the mesoderm and fuse together to form ?
Myotubules
Activates muscle specific differentiation
MyoD
Exerts inhibitory effect on growth and differentiation
Myostatin
True regeneration of skeltal muscle is due to
Satellite cells
Endomesium of muscle contains
laminin
Collagen fibers insert themselves at the ends of muscle forming the?
Myotendinous junction
Major protein at the M-line
Creatine Kinase
Protein that anchors molecules at the sarcolemma
Dystrophin
IF extending from one myofibril to the other and anchored to sarcoleema , encircles the Z disk of each sarcomere
Desmin
links adjacent IF to each other
Plectin
Heat shock protein associated with desmin, protects this IF from stress induced damage
alpha beta crystallin
Muscular dysptrophy cause by
mutation in dystrophin (myofibrills can be misfolded)
T-tubule system encircles the - band of each sarcomere in every myofibril.
A-I band
T tubule with 2 lateral portions of SR is known as a
triad
Muscle spindles also known as
encapsulated proprioceptors
Muscle spindles are collectively called
intrafusal fibers
Muscle spindles are innervated by
sensory nerves
Skeletal muscle energy is obtained from
FA and glucose
* also must have deposits of energy to cope with bursts of activity , thus energy is available from glycogen granules.
Type 1
slow oxidative fibers (lots of myoglobin)
enerygy derived from oxidative phosphorylation of fatty acids
Type IIa
Fast oxidative glycolytic fibers
contains myoglobin and stores of glycogen
Type IIb
fast glycolytic fibers
much less myoglobin
rapidly metabolized glucose from glycogen stores to lactate
Cardiac cells branch to form
complex junctions
