    Study Notes

    Skeletal Muscle Injury Repair

    • Process of Repair After Muscle Strain or Contusion
      • Hemostasis initiates injury response, followed by hematoma formation.
      • Degeneration Phase
        • Necrosis occurs, with neutrophils as the first responders to the injury site.
        • Chemotactic agents are released to attract inflammatory mediators.
      • Inflammation Phase
        • Starts within 24-48 hours post-injury.
        • Phagocytosis occurs to clear cellular debris.
        • Macrophages stimulate satellite cells to:
          • Migrate to injury site.
          • Differentiate into necessary cells.
          • Release various cytokines aiding the healing process.
        • T-lymphocytes take over as macrophages diminish, releasing additional cytokines.
      • Regeneration Phase
        • Takes place approximately 6-8 weeks after injury.
        • Remodeling occurs following regeneration to restore muscle structure.
      • Fibrosis Potential
        • May develop as a result of injury, leading to less functional muscle.

    Role of Basement Membrane in Muscle Healing

    • The basement membrane's integrity is crucial for successful regeneration.
      • Satellite cells rely on the basement membrane to:
        • Divide and maintain structural support.
        • Combine with other myogenic cells for repair.
        • Fuse with remaining muscle fibers to restore function.
      • Damage to the basement membrane results in fibrosis, which:
        • Compromises structural integrity of muscle.
        • Reduces functional capacity.
        • Increases likelihood of subsequent re-injury.

    Effects of Cytokines on Satellite Cells and Muscle Cells During Repair

    • Cytokines play critical roles in muscle cell repair, including:
      • Enhancing resistance to oxidative stress, promoting cell survival.
      • Blocking myofibrogenesis to facilitate improved muscle healing.
      • Stimulating proliferation, leading to cell division.
      • Inducing differentiation, allowing cells to fuse with existing myofibers.
      • Promoting angiogenesis to ensure adequate vascular supply to new muscle cells.
