2 Objectives Histologically identify and functionally characterize each of the 3 types of muscle tissues. Describe the organization of the sarcomere as seen in light and electron microscopy. Identify the endomysium, perimysium, and epimysium CT sleeves in muscle. Relate the functional differences of the three muscle cell types. From: Douglas P. Dohrman and TAMHSC Faculty 2012 Structure and Function of Human Organ Systems, Histology Laboratory Manual

3 MUSCLE FUNCTION: GENERATION OF CONTRACTILE FORCE DISTINGUISHING FEATURES: HIGH CONCENTRATION OF CONTRACTILE PROTEINS ACTIN AND MYOSIN ARRANGED EITHER DIFFUSELY IN THE CYTOPLASM (SMOOTH MUSCLE) OR IN REGULAR REPEATING UNITS CALLED SARCOMERES (STRIATED MUSCLES, e.g., CARDIAC AND SKELETAL MUSCLES)

11 Muscle Tissue Muscle cells specialized for contraction with apparatus of actin and myosin proteins. 3 types: Skeletal Muscle Smooth Muscle Cardiac Muscle Longitudinal sections - Peripheral nuclei - Striations - No branching Cross section - Peripheral nuclei - Massive cytoplasm Longitudinal sections - Central nuclei (often fusiform) - Meshwork appearance of cells - No striations Cross section - Central nuclei - Low cytoplasm to nucleus ratio Longitudinal sections - Central nuclei (often elongated) - Striations - Branching cells - Intercalated discs Cross section - Central nuclei - High cytoplasm to nucleus ratio

14 Slide 052: Skeletal muscle (longitudinal and cross sections) Muscle fibers with peripheral nuclei Capillary Cross striations (A and I bands) The increase in muscle mass during exercise results from stimulating formation of new myofibrils and enlargement in the diameter of individual muscle fibers (hypertrophy = increase in size).

ATP is required in this process.

55 REGENERATION OF MUSCLE Which type of muscle cells can be replaced in adults? SMOOTH LOTS SKELETAL SOME CARDIAC NONE

56 Clinical Correlation Ischemic heart disease is one of the most significant health problems in the US. Coronary artery thrombosis usually precedes and precipitates a myocardial infarct, resulting in the death of cardiac myocytes. Eventually scar tissue is formed and there is some loss of contractility. Image taken from adultstemcellawareness.wordpress.com Lacking muscle mesenchymal satellite cells, adult mammalian cardiac muscle has little potential to regenerate after injury. Damage is replaced by proliferating fibroblasts and connective tissue growth, forming myocardial scars.
