contains large muscle cells (up to 1 foot or more in length) (skeletal, cardiac or smooth?)
skeletal muscle
-
mutinucleated (nucleus located in periphery, closer to cell membrane), striated (banded) appearance (skeletal, cardiac or smooth?)
skeletal muscle
-
referred to as striated voluntary muscle, nervous system provides voluntary control (skeletal, cardiac or smooth?)

has some ability to repair itself using myosatellite cells (stem cells) (skeletal, cardiac or smooth?)
skeletal muscle
-
description: cells are long, cylindrical, striated and multinucleate (skeletal, cardiac or smooth?)
skeletal muscle
-
function: moves or stabilizes the position of the skeleton, guards entrances and exits to the digestive, respiratory, and urinary tracts; generates heat; protects internal organs
skeletal muscle
-
skeletal muscle drug that targets nicotinic ACh receptor? ex: neostigmine, pyridostigmine, and ambenonium
- Cholinesterase inhibitors
- skeletal muscle drugs target nicotinic ACh receptor
- how muscle contraction works: Acetylcholine stimulates muscle to contract
- ACh broken down by cholinesterase to stop muscle contraction
- cholinesterase inhibitors decrease the breakdown of ACh
- used as treatment for myasthenia gravis (muscle weakness)
-
location: only in the heart (skeletal, cardiac or smooth?)
cardiac muscle
-
cells are short, branched, and striated, usually a single nucleus; cells are connected by intercalated discs (skeletal, cardiac or smooth?)
cardiac muscle
-
function: circulates blood; maintains blood (hydrostatic) pressure (skeletal, cardiac or smooth?)
cardiac muscle
-
limited ability to repair itself; although it can divide some after injury to the heart, the repairs are incomplete and some function is usually lost (skeletal, cardiac or smooth?)
cardiac muscle
-
refferred to as striated involuntary muscle (relies on pacemaker cells)
cardiac muscle
-
specialized cardiac muscle cells that establish the rate of contraciton
pacemaker cells
-
interconnect muscle cells, membranes are linked together via gap junctions; ion movements help synchronize the contraction of the cells;
- intercalated discs
- allows structural, electrical and chemical connection
- bec the myofibrils are locked together, the 2 muscle cells can "pull together with max efficiency
-
-
almost completely dependent on aerobic metabolism; therefore, need glycogen and lipids, lots of mitochondria and myoglobin (skeletal, cardiac or smooth?)

meaning: full mass of cells

- bec of intercalated discs, get connection between muscle cells
-
posses property of AUTOMATICITY (contraction without the stimulation by nervous system) (skeletal, cardiac or smooth?)
- cardiac muscle
- bec it's involuntary, it can act on its own w/o stimulation from nervous system
- the nervous system can alter the pace established by the pacemaker cells
-

-
referred to as nonstriated involuntary muscle (nervous system, hormones can affect smooth muscle); affected by nervous system BUT not under conscious control (skeletal, cardiac or smooth?)
smooth muscle
-
function: moves food, urine and reproductive tract secretions; controls diameter of respiratory passageways; regulates diameter of blood vessels
smooth muscle
-
what are the 4 ways that smooth muscles differ from other muscle cells?
- 1. excitation-contraciton coupling
- 2. length-tension relationships
- 3. control of contractions
- 4. smooth muscle tone
-
describe: excitation-contraction coupling in smooth muscle cells
- free calcium in cytoplasm triggers contraction
- calcium enters cell and causes sarcoplasmic reticulum to release more calcium
- calcium then interacts with CALMODULIN
- calmodulin activates myosin light chain kinase
- this allows myosin head to attach to actin, cause contraction
-
describe: length-tension relationships in smooth muscle cells
- tension and length are not directly related bec thick and thin filaments are scattered and not organized into sarcomeres
- has PLASTICITY: ability to function over wide range of lengths
- basically helps with changes in volume, ex in the stomach
-
describe: control of contractions in smooth muscle cells (remember 2 types: multiunit smooth muscle cells and visceral smooth muscle cells)
- mutiunit smooth muscle cells are innervated in motor units just like skeletal muscle; so we have smooth muscles that can be innervated and controlled but act more slowly than skeletal
- visceral smooth muscle cells lack direct connection with motor neuron; responds to chemicals, hormones, gases, stretching or pacesetter cells; undergoes spontaneous depolarization, cycles of activity
-
smooth muscle durg that blocks vasoconstriction (diameter of blood vessels to decrease) to lower BP; so blocking this would decrease BP bec allows more blood to flow; used to treat hypertension
- ANGIOTENSIN RECEPTOR BLOCKERS (ARBs)
- ex: losartan (Cozaar), valsartan (Diovan), candesartan (Atacand)
- ends in -tan
-
