Review Block 1 (pt2) Flashcards
what inhibits IL-6?
leptin
adipose tissue in this area can produce IL-6?
intraperitoneal fat
what kind of cartilage is this?
hyaline cartilage
what kind of cartilage is this?
fibrocartilage
fibrocartilage has what kind of collagen? how does it stain?
type 1 and eosinophillic
what type of collagen is hyaline cartilage? how does it stain?
type 2, basophillic
what is the organic part of bone?
hydroxyapatite and canaliculi
what is the inorganic part of bone?
collagen type 1
how does skeletal muscle contract?
strong, quick, discontinuous, voluntary
how are cardiac muscle contraction?
strong, quick, continuous, involuntary
how are smooth muscle contractions?
slow, weak, involuntary
what holds skeletal cells together?
dystrophin
in what part of skeletal muscle are fibroblasts?
endomysium
what is this?
cardiac muscle
what is this?
skeletal muscle
what is this?
smooth muscle
what do we find in the M line? and in the I band?
myosin; actin
how does a skeletal contraction happen?
1) motor neuron releases ACh
2) ACh binds to receptor
3) Na channel opens, Na rushes out
4) Wave of depolarization in sarcolemma
5) wave passes into cell via T tubules
6) triggers release of Ca ++ from sarcoplasmic reticulum
7) Ca 2+ causes interactions between myosin and actin causing contraction
8) Ca 2+ gets pumped back into sarcoplasmic reticulum to stop contraction
where is dystrophin?
under skeletal muscle
why do duchenne and beckers happen?
mutation in dystrophin gene
what is the cardiac node that depolarizes fastest?
SA node because its the leakeast
What do sympathetics do to the contractions in the heart?
it increases them
What do para-sympathetics do to the contractions in the heart?
decreases them
why is the functional syncytium important in the heart?
because due to the intercalated disks, when one cell depolarizes the rest follow
