Types of muscle:  Skeletal muscle 骨骼肌  Cardiac muscle 心肌  Smooth muscle 平滑肌 Striated muscle 横纹肌 Muscle

Muscle (cont.) The sliding filament mechanism (肌丝滑行机制), in which myosin (肌凝蛋白) filaments bind to and move actin (肌纤 蛋白) filaments, is the basis for shortening of stimulated skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscles. In all three types of muscle, myosin and actin interactions are regulated by the availability of calcium ions. Changes in the membrane potential of muscles are linked to internal changes in calcium release (and contraction).

Neuronal influences on the contraction of muscles is affected when neural activity causes changes in the membrane potential of muscles. Smooth muscles operate in a wide variety of involuntary functions such as regulation of blood pressure and movement of materials in the gut. Muscle (cont.)

Structure of skeletal muscle

Skeletal muscles are attached to the skeleton by tendons. Skeletal muscles typically contain many, many muscle fibers.

The sarcomere (肌小节) is composed of: thick filaments called myosin, anchored in place by titin fibers, and thin filaments called actin, anchored to Z-lines.

A cross section through a sarcomere shows that: each myosin can interact with 6 actin filaments, and each actin can interact with 3 myosin filaments.

Molecular mechanisms of contraction Sliding-filament mechanism

Contraction (shortening): myosin binds to actin, and slides it, pulling the Z-lines closer together, and reducing the width of the I-bands. Note that filament lengths have not changed.

Contraction: myosin’s cross-bridges (横桥) bind to actin; the crossbridges then flex to slide actin.

The thick filament called myosin is actually a polymer of myosin molecules, each of which has a flexible cross-bridge that binds ATP and actin.

The cross-bridge cycle requires ATP The myosin-binding site on actin becomes available, so the energized cross-bridge binds. 1. The full hydrolysis and departure of ADP + P i causes the flexing of the bound cross-bridge. 2. Binding of a “new” ATP to the cross-bridge uncouples the bridge. 3. Partial hydrolysis of the bound ATP energizes or “re-cocks” the bridge. 4.

In relaxed skeletal muscle, tropomyosin blocks the cross-bridge binding site on actin. Contraction occurs when calcium ions bind to troponin; this complex then pulls tropomyosin away from the cross-bridge binding site. Roles of troponin, tropomyosin, and calcium in contraction

Interaction of myosin and actin

Transmission of action potential (AP) along T tubules Calcium release caused by T tubule AP Contraction initiated by calcium ions Excitation-contraction coupling 兴奋 - 收缩偶联

The latent period between excitation and development of tension in a skeletal muscle includes the time needed to release Ca ++ from sarcoplasmic reticulum, move tropomyosin, and cycle the cross-bridges.

The transverse tubules bring action potentials into the interior of the skeletal muscle fibers, so that the wave of depolarization passes close to the sarcoplasmic reticulum, stimulating the release of calcium ions. The extensive meshwork of sarcoplasmic reticulum assures that when it releases calcium ions they can readily diffuse to all of the troponin sites.

Passage of an action potential along the transverse tubule opens nearby voltage-gated calcium channels, the “ryanodine receptor,” located on the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and calcium ions released into the cytosol bind to troponin. The calcium-troponin complex “pulls” tropomyosin off the myosin-binding site of actin, thus allowing the binding of the cross-bridge, followed by its flexing to slide the actin filament.

Neuromuscular transmission Excitation-contraction coupling Muscle contraction General process of excitation and contraction in skeletal muscle

A single motor unit (运动单位) consists of a motor neuron and all of the muscle fibers it controls.

The neuromuscular junction ( 神经肌接头) is the point of synaptic contact between the axon terminal of a motor neuron and the muscle fiber it controls. Action potentials in the motor neuron cause Acetylcholine (乙酰胆碱) release into the neuromuscular junction. Muscle contraction follows the delivery of acetylcholine to the muscle fiber.

1. The exocytosis of acetylcholine from the axon terminal occurs when the acetylcholine vesicles merge into the membrane covering the terminal. 2. On the membrane of the muscle fiber, the receptors for acetylcholine respond to its binding by increasing Na + entry into the fiber, causing a graded depolarization. 3. The graded depolarization typically exceeds threshold for the nearby voltage-gate Na + and K + channels, so an action potential occurs on the muscle fiber.

End plate potential (EPP) 终板电位

Miniature end plate potential 微终板电位  Small fluctuations (typically 0.5 mV) in the resting potential of postsynaptic cells.  They are the same shape as, but much smaller than, the end plate potentials caused by stimulation of the presynaptic cell. Miniature end plate potentials are considered as evidence for the quantal release of neurotransmitters at chemical synapses, a single miniature end plate potential resulting from the release of the contents of a single synaptic vesicle.

 Muscle tension 肌张力 – the force exerted on an object by a contracting muscle  Load 负荷 – the force exerted on the muscle by an object (usually its weight)  Isometric contraction 等长收缩 – a muscle develops tension but does not shorten (or lengthen) (constant length)  Isotonic contraction 等张收缩 – the muscle shortens while the load on the muscle remains constant (constant tension) Mechanics of single-fiber contraction

 The mechanical response of a single muscle fiber to a single action potential is know as a TWITCH Twitch contraction 单收缩

Tension increases rapidly and dissipates slowly Shortening occurs slowly, only after taking up elastic tension; the relaxing muscle quickly returns to its resting length. iso = same tonic = tension metric = length

All three are isotonic contractions. 1.Latent period 潜伏期 2.Velocity of shortening 3.Duration of the twitch 4.Distance shortened

Mechanism for greater tetanic tension Successive action potentials result in a persistent elevation of cytosolic calcium concentration

Long sarcomere: actin and myosin do not overlap much, so little tension can be developed. Length-tension relation Short sarcomere: actin filaments lack room to slide, so little tension can be developed. Optimal-length sarcomere: lots of actin-myosin overlap and plenty of room to slide. Optimal length

Skeletal muscle’s capacity to produce ATP via oxidative phosphorylation is further supplemented by the availability of molecular oxygen bound to intracellular myoglobin. In skeletal muscle, ATP production via substrate phosphorylation is supplemented by the availability of creatine phosphate 磷酸肌酸.

In skeletal muscle, repetitive stimulation leads to fatigue 疲劳, evident as reduced tension. Rest overcomes fatigue, but fatigue will reoccur sooner if inadequate recovery time passes.

 On the basis of maximal velocities of shortening  Fast fibers 快肌纤维 – containing myosin with high ATPase activity (type II fibers)  Slow fibers 慢肌纤维 -- containing myosin with low ATPase activity (type I fibers)  On the basis of major pathway to form ATP  Oxidative fibers 氧化型肌纤维 – containing numerous mitochondria and having a high capacity for oxidative phosphorylation, also containing large amounts of myoglobin (red muscle fibers)  Glycolytic fibers 糖酵解型肌纤维 -- containing few mitochondria but possessing a high concentration of glycolytic enzymes and a large store of glycogen, and containing little myoglobin (white muscle fibers) Types of skeletal muscle fibers

Slow-oxidative fibers – combine low myosin- ATPase activity with high oxidative capacity Fast-oxidative fibers -- combine high myosin- ATPase activity with high oxidative capacity and intermediate glycolytic capacity Fast-glycolytic fibers -- combine high myosin-ATPase activity with high glycolytic capacity Types of skeletal muscle fibers

Slow-oxidative skeletal muscle responds well to repetitive stimulation without becoming fatigued; muscles of body posture are examples. Fast-oxidative skeletal muscle responds quickly and to repetitive stimulation without becoming fatigued; muscles used in walking are examples. Fast-glycolytic skeletal muscle is used for quick bursts of strong activation, such as muscles used to jump or to run a short sprint. Most skeletal muscles include all three types.

Note: Because fast-glycolytic fibers have significant glycolytic capacity, they are sometimes called “fast oxidative-glycolytic [FOG] fibers.

All three types of muscle fibers are represented in a typical skeletal muscle, and, under tetanic stimulation, make the predicted contributions to the development of muscle tension. Slow-oxidative Fast-oxidative Fast- glycolytic Whole-muscle contraction

Flexors (屈肌) and extensors ( 伸肌) work in antagonistic sets to refine movement, and to allow force generation in two opposite directions.

How can gastrocnemius contraction result in two different movements?

The lever system of muscles and bones: Here, muscle contraction must generate 70 kg force to hold a 10 kg object that is 30 cm away from the site of muscle attachment.

Muscle contraction that moves the attachment site on bone 1 cm results in a 7 cm movement of the object 30 cm away from the site; similar gains in movement velocity occur.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy ( Duchenne 型肌营养不良) weakens the hip and trunk muscles, thus altering the lever-system relationships of the muscles and bones that are used to stand up.
