Muscle 1: Muscles of Respiration
Breathing requires the use of muscles - Diaphragm and external intercostal muscles - Internal intercostal muscles Contraction of first 2 produces inspiration Contraction of last produces forced expiration Normal expiration requires little muscular activity - Elastic recoil and gravity collapses the chest - Inspiratory muscles active in braking action, so exhalation is smooth Notes: - The diaphragm either expands or flattens as a result of breathing in and out.

Muscle 3: Anaerobic ATP Formation
Does not use oxygen - Happens in oxygen and no oxygen environment Glycolysis (glucose 2 pyruvic acid + 2 ATP) - Pyruvic Acid = Lactic Acid Some enters oxygen pathway in mitochondria to make 36 ATP - 2 minutes worth usually However, when muscle contract vigorously— - Muscles compress BV - No oxygen and glucose present - Thus, pyruvic acid turns into lactic acid pathway called anaerobic glycolysis - Lactic acid is end product - Liver turns LA back to PA No oxygen pathway—only 5 % as much ATP as with oxygen, but 2.5x faster than oxygen pathway Lactic acid leads to muscle fatigue and soreness The burning sensation is caused by a build up of lactic acid
Muscle 3: ADP + CP (Phosphagen System)
Exercise—use ATP fast, depleted source ATP reserves used up in 2 seconds so need to then use CP Creatine phosphate: - High energy molecule - Stored in muscles - Regenerates ATP - CP + ADP = ATP CP reserves exhausted quickly ATP + CP—maximum muscle power - 15-20 seconds

Muscle 3: Muscle Contraction and Relaxation
Four actions involved in this process - Excitation = nerve action potentials lead to action potentials in muscle fiber - Excitation-contraction coupling = action potentials on the sarcolemma activate myofilaments - Contraction = shortening of muscle fiber - Relaxation = return to resting length Images will be used to demonstrate the steps of each of these actions
Muscle 3: Neuromuscular Junctions (Synapse)
Functional connection between nerve fiber and muscle cell Neurotransmitter (acetylcholine/ACh) released from nerve fiber stimulates muscle cell Components of synapse (NMJ) - Synaptic knob is swollen end of nerve fiber (contains ACh) - Junctional folds region of sarcolemma *Increases surface area for ACh receptors *Contains acetylcholinesterase that breaks down ACh and causes relaxation - Synaptic cleft = tiny gap between nerve and muscle cells Basal lamina = thin layer of collagen and glycoprotein over all of muscle fiber In Class Notes: - AcH is stored in the synaptic knob. *There has to be receptors to receive what is releases. - Synaptic cleft = gap - Action potential = electrical charge *This causes ion channels to open and release its contents.

In Class Notes: - Transverse tubules go across the sarcolemma. - Terminal cisternae has calcium. *When the electrical charge goes through the transverse tubules, it opens up the terminal cisternae which then releases calcium. - Skeletal muscles store glycogen (glucose). - Sarcoplasmic reticulum *Holds the terminal cisternae (stores calcium) and T tubule *Smooth ER + T Tubule + 2 Terminal Cisternae = Triad
Muscle 3: Relaxed and Contracted Sarcomeres
Muscle cells shorten because their individual sarcomeres shorten - Pulling Z discs closer together - Pulls on sarcolemma Notice neither thick nor thin filaments change length during shortening Their overlap changes as sarcomeres shorten In Class Notes: - Sliding filament theory: the actin and myosin slide past each other; they do not shorten.
Muscle 3: Regulatory and Contractile Proteins
Myosin and actin are contractile proteins Tropomyosin and troponin = regulatory proteins - Switch that starts and stops shortening of muscle cell - Contraction activated by release of calcium into sarcoplasm and its binding to troponin, - Troponin moves tropomyosin off the actin active sites In Class Notes: - Myosin and Actin = contractile protein *Slide past each other - Tropomyosin and Troponin = regulatory proteins *Don't slide past each other

Steps 1 and 2: Nerve signal opens voltage-gated calcium channels. Calcium stimulates exocytosis of synaptic vesicles containing ACh = ACh release into synaptic cleft. Steps 3 and 4: Binding of ACh to receptor proteins opens Na+ and K+ channels resulting in jump in RMP from -90mV to +75mV forming an end-plate potential (EPP). Step 5: Voltage change in end-plate region (EPP) opens nearby voltage-gated channels producing an action potential Steps 6 and 7: Action potential spreading over sarcolemma enters T tubules -- voltage-gated channels open in T tubules causing calcium gates to open in SR Steps 8 and 9: Calcium released by SR binds to troponin Troponin-tropomyosin complex changes shape and exposes active sites on actin Steps 10 and 11: Myosin ATPase in myosin head hydrolyzes an ATP molecule, activating the head and "cocking" it in an extended position Steps 12 and 13: - Power stroke = myosin head releasesADP and phosphate as it flexes pulling the thin filament past the thick - With the binding of more ATP, the myosin head extends to attach to a new active site *Half of the heads are bound to a *Thin filament at one time preventing slippage thin and thick filaments do not become shorter, just slide past each other (sliding filament theory) Steps 14 and 15: Nerve stimulation ceases and acetylcholinesterase removes ACh from receptors. Stimulation of the muscle cell ceases. Step 16: Active transport needed to pump calcium back into SR to bind to calsequestrin ATP is needed for muscle relaxation as well as muscle contraction Steps 17 and 18: - Loss of calcium from sarcoplasm moves troponin-tropomyosin complex over active sites *Stops the production or maintenance of tension - Muscle fiber returns to its resting length due to recoil of series-elastic components and contraction of antagonistic muscles
Muslce 3: Rigor Mortis
Stiffening of the body beginning 3 to 4 hours after death Deteriorating sarcoplasmic reticulum releases calcium Calcium activates myosin-actin cross-bridging and muscle contracts, but can not relax. Muscle relaxation requires ATP and ATP production is no longer produced after death Fibers remain contracted until myofilaments decay
Muscle 1: Supination and Pronation
Supination - Supinator muscle - Palm facing anteriorly Pronation - Pronator teres and Pronatior quadratus mm. - Palm faces posteriorly
Muscle 1: Intrinsic Hand Muscles
Thenar group = fleshy base of thumb muscles Hypothenar group = base of little finger muscles Midpalmar group = Interosseus mm. and Lumbrical mm.
Muscle 1: Perimysium
Thicker sheath of dense irregular connective tissue Wraps 10-100 muscle fibers into fascicles (visible to the naked eye) Carries larger nerves/vessels and special stretch receptors called muscle spindle fibers Notes: - Surrounds fascicles - Holds nerves and vessels in place - Carries large muscles and nerves
Muscle 1: Endomysium
Thin sheath of loose areolar connective tissue Creates room for capillaries & nerve fibers - Ensures each muscle fiber is nourished Provides extracellular chemical environment for the excitation of the muscle fiber by the nerve - Excitation is based on the exchange of ions between endomysial fluid, the nerve & muscle fiber Notes: - Tendon is a continuation of connective tissues. - Endomysium = beginning/small layer. - Endomysium surrounds the muscles, insulates it, helps hold capillaries and neurons, keeps close contact to muscle fibers, provides extracellular chemical environment for muscle stimulation, and more.
Muscle 3: Thin Filaments
Two intertwined strands fibrous (F) actin - Globular (G) actin with an active site Groove holds tropomyosin molecules - Each blocking 6 or 7 active sites of G actins One small, calcium-binding troponin molecule on each tropomyosin molecule In Class Notes: - Actin has the compliment of the "golf ball heads" (aka myosin head). *Myosin heads stretch out and bind to the actin and pull. - Tropomyosin hides the binding site. *Calcium will meet troponin complex, moving it and the tropomyosin to rotate out of the way, which allows myosin to leave and bind to the actin. - Easier Version of Contraction *Actin with Binding Sites *Myosin Needs to Bind *Actin Binding Sites Covered (not contracting) *Myosin Binds when Tropomyosin Moves - 1 Neuron stimulates 1 Muscle Cell.
Muscle 1: Athletic injuries
Vulnerable to sudden and intense stress Proper conditioning and warm-up needed Common injuries - Shinsplints - Pulled hamstrings - Tennis elbow Treat with rest, ice, compression and elevation (RICE) "No pain, no gain" is a dangerous misconception Notes: - Shinsplints is inflammation that makes you feel like you broke a bone, but you actually didn't. - Tennis elbow is because of overuse.
