Components of Skeletal Muscle

A
  • Actin filament and myosin filament → Sarcomere → Myofibril (tandem repeat of sarcomeres → Muscle fiber (muscle cell) → Fascicle (bundle of muscle cells) → Muscle

Q

Properties of Cardiac Muscle Cell

A
  • Exerts vigorous, rhythmic, quick, continuous, involuntary contraction
  • Composed of elongated, branched, individual (mono-nuclear) cells
  • Cross-striated
  • Arranged in layers
  • Incapable of regeneration
  • Interacalated discs are located at sites of cell-to-cell contact

Q

Intercalated Disc

A

Junctional complex between cardiac muscle cells

17
Q

Transverse portion of intercalated disc:

A
  • Runs perpendicular to myofibril
  • Is strongly anchored through adherens junction and desmosome
18
Q

Lateral portion of intercalated disc:

A
  • Runs parallel to myofibril
  • Gap junctions provide rapid spread of contractile stimuli
19
Q

Identification of Cardiac Muscle

A
  • Striation and intercalated discs
  • Branching pattern
  • Centrally located, large, oval, nuclei (one per cell)
  • Rich capillary network surrounding cardiac muscle cell

Q

Characteristics of Smooth Muscle Cells (6)

A
  • Located in walls of blood vessel, GI tract, uterus, respiratory tract, small bundles in dermis
  • Collections of non-striated, fusiform cells; tightly packed
  • one central oval nucleus per cell
  • Synthesizes collagen, elastin, proteoglycans
  • Cells retain mitotic capability (able to regenerate)
23
Q

Identification of Smooth Muscle

A
  • Tightly packed cells
  • No cross-striation
  • Central nuclei
  • Cells appear to have different diameters

Basic Structure of Long Bone

A
31
Q

Osteoblasts

A
  • Derived from osteoprogenitor (stem) cells
  • Actively secrete components of inital bone matrix (osteoid)
  • Located as a layer on the surface of developint bones
32
Q

Osteocytes

A
  • Differentiate from osteoblasts when enclosed in bone matrix
  • Located in lacuna
  • Slow secretion to maintain bone matrix
  • Connected through dendrites
33
Q

Osteoclasts

A
  • Derived from fusion of blood monocytes
  • Loarge, multi-nucleated
  • Erode bone matrix for remodeling
  • Release Ca2+
