Study Notes
Final Review (Modules 4-6)
- Skeletal muscle is striated and under voluntary control
- Skeletal muscle is innervated at the neuromuscular junction by acetylcholine (ACh)
- Muscle fibers run the length of the entire muscle
Muscle Fibre
- Muscle fibers run parallel to each other and are surrounded by connective tissue
- Muscle fibers are single, multinucleated cells with plenty of mitochondria
Myofibrils
- Muscle fibers are divided into discrete contractile elements called myofibrils
- Myofibrils have bands (light and dark) which give them a striated appearance in side view
- The cross-section of myofibrils shows thick and thin filaments (myosin and actin)
Myofibril Structure
- Myofibrils are contractile elements of muscle fibers
- They exhibit light and dark bands (I and A bands)
- A bands: dark bands of stacked thin and thick filaments running parallel to each other, with borders defined by thick filaments
- I bands: light bands that contain portions of thin filaments that do not extend into the A band
- H zone: the lighter portion of the A band where myosin does not overlap actin
- M line: proteins that hold thick filaments together in a stack and runs down the H zone
- Z line: vertical line within the I band, with the region between two Z lines defining a sarcomere
Sarcomere
- The relaxed sarcomere is 2.5 μm wide
- Growing muscles extend the length of muscle fibers by adding new sarcomeres to the ends
- The A band contains myosin and actin overlap, which forms cross-bridges when thin filaments bind
Muscle Proteins
- Muscle proteins are the building blocks of muscle fibers
Thick Filament
- Myosin uses ATP to move along actin filaments
- Myosin is a dimer consisting of 2 subunits, each with a long shaft and a globular head (golf club shape)
- The shafts of myosin wrap around each other
- Myosin heads stick out, forming actin binding sites and myosin ATPase sites
Thin Filament
- Actin filaments are composed of individual, spherical actin molecules arranged in a double helix formation
- Tropomyosin is a thin, double helix protein that lies along the actin filament
- Tropomyosin regulates muscle contraction by covering active binding sites on actin
- Troponin is a regulatory protein made of 3 polypeptides and binds to tropomyosin, actin, and Ca2+
Muscular Contraction
- Muscular contraction is initiated by the sliding filament mechanism
Sliding Filament Mechanism
- Cross-bridges formed between myosin heads and actin filaments form the basis for muscle contraction
- Contraction is the activation of tension-generating sites within muscle fibers, resulting in shortening of the muscle fiber
Sliding Filament Mechanism: Process
- During contraction, thin filaments move inward over thick filaments, causing the Z lines to move closer together, shortening the sarcomeres
- The degree of overlap between myosin and actin increases
- The muscle shortens, resulting in concentric contraction
Power Stroke
- The power stroke is an interaction between myosin and actin that initiates sarcomere shortening
- The power stroke occurs when a cross-bridge bends, pulling the thin myofilament inward
- Myosin cross-bridge binds to an actin molecule
- The myosin head bends, pulling the thin myofilament inward
- The cross-bridge detaches at the end of the power stroke and returns to its original conformation
- The cross-bridge binds to a more distal actin molecule, repeating the cycle
- Actin is pulled closer to myosin during the power stroke
- Not all cross-bridges are actively pulling
- Some hold actin in position until the next power stroke
Excitation-Contraction Coupling
- Excitation-contraction coupling is the process of converting an electrical signal to contraction
- Muscles rely on two structures to transmit the signal:
Key Events in Excitation-Contraction Coupling
- Acetylcholine (ACh) release at the neuromuscular junction causes permeability changes and initiates an action potential across the muscle membrane
Sarcoplasmic Reticulum (SR)
- The SR is a membranous structure running parallel to muscle fibers
- Lateral sacs at the end of the SR are in close proximity to T-tubules
- The SR stores Ca2+ ions
T-Tubules
- T-tubules are invaginations of the plasma membrane (PM) at the junction of A and I bands
- T-tubules dip into the fiber and run perpendicular to it
Relationship Between T-Tubules and SR
-
Plasma membrane depolarization causes a wave to spread across the cell (T-tubules)
-
The signal is also transmitted from the T-tubule to the SR
-
The SR runs longitudinally with sacs lying adjacent to the T-tubules and dips in junctions between A and I bands
-
The surface of the T-tubules has dihydropyridine receptors (voltage-sensor) that sense the wave
-
Opposite the T-tubules, the SR has ryanodine receptors
-
Excitation enters the T-tubules and is sensed by dihydropyridine receptors, which influence ryanodine receptors of the SR, causing a conformational change Ryanodine receptors form a Ca2+ channel Activation of the Ca2+ channel allows Ca2+ to enter the cytoplasm
Calcium Release
- Ca2+ is the primary trigger for skeletal muscle contraction
- When a muscle is excited, Ca2+ enters the muscle fiber and binds to troponin
- This causes a conformational change, moving tropomyosin out of the way and exposing myosin binding sites on actin
Relaxation
- Relaxation occurs with decreased nerve activity at the neuromuscular junction
- Acetylcholinesterase removes remaining ACh, stopping the generation of action potentials
- The SR stops releasing Ca2+
- Ca2+-ATPase pumps Ca2+ back into the SR from the cytosol
- The troponin-tropomyosin complex covers actin molecules again
- Cross-bridge cycling ceases, and exposure of actin binding sites allows ATP-powered cross-bridge cycling
ATP in the Cross-Bridge Cycle
- ATP binds to the ATPase binding site on myosin, breaking it down into ADP. Energy is transferred to the myosin cross-bridge.
- The presence of Ca2+ allows the troponin-tropomyosin complex to expose actin for binding, causing cross-bridge swings and the power-stroke
- Phosphate (Pi) and ADP are released, but the cross-bridge remains bound to actin
- The binding of a new ATP molecule causes the cross-bridge to detach and return to its un-cocked shape
- If no ATP is available, Ca2+ continues to increase, and the cells remain contracted until they run out of ATP
- Protons decay and relax the cell
Temporal Relationship Between Electrical and Mechanical Activity
- Increased electrical activity in the muscle leads to increased mechanical activity
Latent Period
- Muscle activation is required to exert force, leading to muscle shortening
- The latent period is the delay between the action potential and the start of contraction
Contraction Time
- The contraction time is the time it takes for actin filaments to slide along myosin filaments
- Peak tension occurs between 40-120 msec
- Variability is due to the type of muscle fibers and their location
Motor Units
- The force generated by a muscle depends on motor units
Twitch
- A twitch is a single muscle fiber contraction
- To develop more tension in a muscle, more fibers need to twitch
Motor Unit Recruitment
- Greater numbers of recruited fibers result in greater muscle tension
- Motor neurons enter the muscle and innervate multiple fibers
- Activation of a motor neuron causes all fibers to contract as a single motor unit
- The body selectively rotates activation of motor units to prevent fatigue
Frequency of Stimulation
-
The membrane recovers quickly from short action potentials to undergo another
- If a muscle fiber is restimulated after complete relaxation, the second twitch has the same magnitude as the first
- If a muscle fiber is restimulated before complete relaxation, the second twitch is added, resulting in twitch summation
- When muscle fiber twitches overlap, it results in tetanic contraction
-
Unfused tetanus: fibers partially relax between stimuli
-
Fused tetanus: no relaxation between stimuli. Fused tetanus is the strongest and most common type of twitch
Optimal Muscle Length
-
Every muscle has an optimal resting length (l0), which leads to maximum cross-bridge availability for binding
-
At the optimal length, the maximum force can be generated
-
Less than l0: thin filament overlaps thick filaments without many cross-bridges, decreasing contraction efficiency and tension. If muscle shortening occurs too much, actin from opposite sides of sarcomere may overlap, with thick filaments in contact with z-lines
-
At l0: maximal cross-bridges are available for binding, typically optimal at rest to allow maximum contraction
-
Greater than l0: overlap of filaments decreases, and less cross-bridges are available
Muscle Tension and Bone
- Muscles are attached to bones around a joint Connective tissue forms tendons, making physical connections to bones and allowing contraction or relaxation
Muscle Tension with a Load
- Muscles must exceed forces that oppose the movement of bone
- If there is an external load to the biceps, the muscle must contract to overcome the force exerted by the triceps to move the weight
Muscle Soreness: Myalgia
- Contusion: muscle subjected to sudden, heavy extrinsic compressive force
- Strain: muscle exposed to excessive force caused by intrinsic tension
- Laceration: deep cut/tear of muscle
Types of Muscle Contraction
- Types of muscle contraction depends on the level of muscle interaction
At the Motor Unit Level
- Isotonic contraction: tension remains constant as muscle length changes
- Isometric contraction: tension increases while muscle length remains static
At the Whole Muscle Level (Requires Work)
- Concentric dynamic contraction: muscle produces tension as it shortens
- Eccentric dynamic contraction: muscle produces tension as it lengthens
Muscle Cells: Fatigue
- Fatigue is a state where contractile activity cannot be maintained, and tension declines
Central Fatigue
- Central fatigue is when the central nervous system (CNS) decreases activation of motor neurons, slowing down or stopping activity even if muscle fibers are not fatigued
Muscle Fatigue
- Muscle fatigue is a mechanism to protect muscle cells, where contractile activity is reduced when ATP supplies run out or tetanus occurs
- Local accumulation of ADP+Pi from ATP hydrolysis interferes with cross-bridge cycling (CBC)
- Accumulation of lactic acid inhibits glycolytic enzymes
- Accumulation of extracellular K+ (Eck+) causes depolarization, making muscle fibers less excitable
- Depletion of glycogen
Muscle Fibre Types
- Muscle fibre types describe traits of slow and fast twitches
Slow Twitch (Type I)
-
Slow twitch muscle fibers are found in slower muscles
-
Slow twitch muscle fibers are innervated by alpha 2 motor neurons
-
Slow twitch have smaller and lower activation thresholds and slower condition speeds
-
Because of the properties of slow twitch muscles, they contract and relax at slower rates
-
ATPase in slow twitch myosin heards has slower rate of CBC
-
Slow twitch muscles produce ATP through aerobic processes and are slow oxidative
Fast Twitch (Type II)
-
Fast twitch muscle fibers are found In fast twitch muscles
-
Fast twitch muscles are innervated by alpha 1 motor neurons with large, high activation thresholds and faster conduction speeds.
-
ATPase in fast twitch myosin heads has higher rate of CBC
-
Fast twitch can be fast oxidative glycolytic, produceing ATP through aeorbic an anaerobic pathways
-
Fast twitch can be fast glycolytic, producing ATP through exclusively anaerobic means
Colour of Muscle Fibres
- Colour of muscle fibres is affected by how they produce energy
- Red fibres are slow oxidative and fast oxidative glycolytic (FOG), vascularized, and have numerous mitochondria
- Myoglobin in red fibres supports oxygen us and binds both iron and oxygen → creating the red colour
- White fibres are exclusively fast glycolytic relying on anaerobic metabolism
Afferent Input for Motor Control
- Skeletal muscle can be contracted, relaxed, or both, requiring CNS input
- Input from proprioception occurs due to of skeletal muscles
- Muscle receptors also contribute input
Muscle Receptors; Muscle Spindles
- Muscle spindles monitor changes in muscle length and play a role in stretch reflexes
- Muscle spindles are distributed through specialized muscle cells (intrafusal fibers) and lie within spindle shaped connective tissue among extrafusal fibers
- Only the ends of intrafusal fibres are contractile
- Gamma motor neurons innervate muscle spindles
- The central region of muscle spindles has sensory afferent fibers activated by stretch
Golgi Tendon Organs
-
Golgi tendon organs regulate tension
- Receptors are found at the junction of tendons and muscle fibers
- Extrafusal fibers contract, increasing tension and activating afferent fibers
-
A stronger pull leads to a higher rate of firing from Golgi afferent fibers.
-
Golgi tendon organs are mostly subconscious
Neural Inputs
- Afferent neurons are involved in spinal reflexes, maintaining posture and protective movements
Primary Motor Cortex
- Fibers descend and terminate directly on motor neurons in the spinal cord
- The corticospinal motor system mediates fine voluntary movement
Brain Stem
- The brain stem is a multineuronal motor system influenced by motor regions of the cortex, cerebellum, and basal nuclei
- The Brain regulates body posture and involuntary movements
Smooth Muscle Structure
-
Smooth Muscle is found in walls of hollow organs and tubes and in the heart (cardiac Muscle).
-
There are 3 Filaments in contraction in Smooth Muscle -Thick Myosin Filaments -Longer -Thin Actin Filaments with Tropomyosin (No Troponin) -Intermediate Filaments that Support Cytoskeletal Framework
-
Smooth Muscle has no Z-Lines (Instead dense bodies) -Anchors intermediate contractile filaments -Form diamond-like pattern in cell
Smooth Muscle Mechanism of Contraction
-
There is no Troponin in Smooth Muscle -Therefore, Actin + Myosin cannot form Cross Bridges at rest
-
Myosin Light chain plays a role in Cross Bridge Formation -Therefore, it must have Myosin light Chain for CB formation
-
Cross Bridge Activation*
- Ca2+ enters Smooth Muscle Cell and binds to Calmodulin
- Ca2+ Calmodulin Complex binds to; or activates, Myosin light Chain Kinase
- Now there is Kinase Phosphorylates Mysoin Light Chain -It allows Myosin to Bind to Actin Calcium Sources in Smooth Muscle
-
Entry From ECF* -V-gated Dihydropyridine Receptors allows for Ca2+ Channels to become active. -Depolarization of Ca2+ Enters channel from ECF
-
Release From SR* -Once Cells Enter from ECF; Activate calmodulin, or stimulate SR to Release Ca2+ -SR Release Via Ca2+ -Induced Ca2+ Realease (CICR)
