Summary
This document details muscle histology, focusing on the structure and function of skeletal muscle. It covers sarcolemma, sarcoplasm, myofibrils, and contractile proteins such as actin and myosin. The information is likely part of a university-level biology course.

KINESIOL 1Y03 Histology Actin Myofilaments sarcolemma: outer plasma membrane F-actin: linear polymer microfilament; 30: Muscle Histology sarcoplasm: cytoplasm of muscle cell strand of actin molecules; actin has two nuclei: found just deep to the sarcolemma strands coiled together Skeletal Muscle to prevent interference with internal G-actin: globular proteins which make up the function: consciously controlled muscles proteins strands (as opposed to smooth and cardiac) capillary beds: abundant on outside active site: small site on each G-actin surface (and increase with exercise) molecule; where we form the cross-bridge; not body movement: attached to bone; all skeletal mitochondria: THE POWERHOUSE OF THE always open muscles have to cross a joint maintenance of posture: helps stabilize joints CELL (produce ATP) tropomyosin: regulatory protein the first; 2 to maintain body positions; postural muscles myofibrils: series of highly organized long strands of protein which twist around are constantly contracting while awake proteins, which create long cylinders within F-actin to cover all the active sites respiration: diaphragm is the main muscle that the cell cylinder and extend the length of troponin: regulatory protein the second controls breathing the cell; have banding patterns G-actin: binds to circular part of troponin production of body heat: even at rest, muscle transverse tubules: invaginations of the tropomyosin: binds to pill-shaped part of turnover helps set core body temperature; troponin sarcolemma in regions where actin and shivering in the cold calcium: binds to other circular part; activates communication: writing, gesturing, speaking, myosin overlap; allows APs to reach inside tropomyosin to move when Ca from SR binds eye tracking, etc. the cell; 2 T-tubules/sarcomere unit here by changing shape of troponin properties: allow skeletal muscle to sarcoplasmic reticulum: SR; on either side change shape in response to signals of T-tubules; highly organized smooth ER which helps store calcium (which is Myosin Myofilaments contractility: can contract forcefully thick: much more protein in myosin than excitability: can respond to a stimulus by released into myofibrils to stimulate contractions) actin; made up of strands of myosin producing APs (activated by neurons in terminal cisternae: enlarged regions on each molecules; each surrounded by 6 actins skeletal muscle, neurons or hormones in end of SR, in regions where approaching T- rod: straight region; made of two myosin cardiac muscle) extensibility: can be stretched beyond resting tubule; large amounts of Ca storage heavy chains twisted together to form two length and still contract triad: 1 T-tubule + 2 associated terminal alpha-helices elasticity: can recoil to original length after cisternae hinge: region between rod and head where being stretched myofilaments: contractile proteins; highly movement is possible; allows the muscle composition: primarily made of muscle organized chains of proteins; organization to contract cells (fibers) surrounded by connective creates repeating sarcomeres; each one heads: teardrop-shaped ends facing tissues, blood vessels, and nerves does NOT run the full length of the fiber towards the Z-discs; have myosin light muscle fibers: long, cylindrical, actin: thin filament; lighter bands chains attached to them, and myosin multinucleated; very organized myosin: thick filament; darker bands ATPase (allows myosin heads to bind to myoblasts: immature muscle cells; migrate to Z-disc: proteins which cross the myofibril; actin and move it) areas where muscles will form, then fuse hold the myofilaments (particularly actin) grouping: ~300 myosin make 1 together into cells (hence multinucleated) in place; zig-zag shaped myofilament (~150 facing each way); at striations: patterns of light and dark banding M-line: thin layer of protein which spans varying lengths so heads stick out at due to protein organization within the cell different places myofibril; holds myosin in the middle the of structure: everything looks like more sarcomere (where it is located) cylinders but really it's just a Russian cross-bridge: binding of myosin and actin Sarcomeres (more.) nesting doll of screwed up; skeletal muscle to pull actin towards the M-line; in resting geometry: pretty much everything forms > fascicles > muscle fibers > proteins condition, they are not attached nice 6-sided symmetry titin: coiled protein near Z-disc, which then I-band: region around Z-disc where there is Gross Structure continues on and attaches to the M-line; only actin; spans multiple sarcomeres tendon: connective tissue attaching gives muscle elasticity; holds sarcomere H-zone: region around M-line which muscle to bone; dense regular collagenous together (only component that spans the includes only myosin continuity: continuous with periosteum of whole length (albeit in pieces)); 2 per A-band: spans full region of myosin, bone (dense irregular collagenous) and layers sarcomere including places of overlap; never changes extending through the muscle sarcomere: unit of contractile proteins that size muscle fibers: cells; cylindrical; each fiber are connected in series along the length of extends the full length of the muscle up to the muscle to form the myofibril; runs from Blood and Nerves the tendon Z-disc to Z-disc neurons: go into fascicles, then branch out endomysium: loose areolar and reticular myoglobin: used to carry oxygen from to connect with individual muscle cells connective tissue; separates individual blood through muscle cell coordination: one neuron can branch cells from each other glycogen granules: how carbohydrates are several times to reach multiple muscle fascicle: bundle of cells stored in skeletal muscle cells, but each muscle cell has only one perimysium: dense irregular collagenous ; dystrophin: protein which connected actin connection surrounds the cells of a single fascicle and membrane protein in sarcolemma; epimysium: surrounds all the fascicles membrane protein also connects to the muscular fascia: surrounds groups of three connective tissue layers muscles (or just the individual muscle) summary sheet by Jasmine Ah Yong for KINESIOL 1Y03 (2022)
