Muscle Physiology
•Muscle form 40 to 50% of body mass.
•About 600 muscles are identified.
Classification of Muscles:
•Depending on striations: Striated(Skeletal & Cardiac) & Nonstriated(smooth)
•Depending on Control: voluntary(Skeletal) & Involuntary(Cardiac & smooth)
•Depending on situation: Skeletal, Cardiac & Smooth.
•Muscle fiber or cell has a length b/w 1 – 4cm (Average 3cm) & diameter from 10 – 100microns.
•1 myofibril contains 1500 myosin filaments & 3000 actin filaments
•Sarcomere is the structural & functional unit of skeletal muscle.
Length – 2.5 to 3.2 mm.
Sarcomere lies b/w two ‘Z’ lines
•Each myofibril consists of alternate light (I or J band) & dark band (A or Q band).
•Each sarcomere consist of thin (Actin) & thick (myosin) filaments.
Myosin filament is present throughout the ‘A’ band.
No movement of myosin during muscular contraction.
•Actin filaments are formed by 3 types of proteins called actin, tropomyosin & troponin.
•The skeletal muscle is formed by 75% of water, 20% of proteins & 5%of organic substances.
•Troponin: is formed by 3 subunits; Troponin I – attached to F actin; Troponin T – attached to tropomyosin; Troponin C – attached to calcium ions.
•Following are the muscle proteins; Myosin; Actin; Tropomyosin; Troponin; Actinin; Titin; Desmin; Myogen & Myoglobulin.
•There is no movement in the myosin filament during muscle contraction.
•Actin filaments slide over the myosin filament during muscle contraction.
•Tropomyosin covers the active sites of actin.
•Rheobase: this is the least possible, i.e. (minimum) strength (Voltage) of stimulus which can excite the tissue.
•Chronaxie: it is the minimum time, at which a stimulus with double the rheobasic strength (voltage) can excite the tissue.
Chronaxie of skeletal muscle is shorter than that of cardiac and smooth muscles.
Cold lengthens chronaxie. whereas vagal stimulation shortens chronaxie.
•Refractory period is the period at which the muscle does not show any response to a stimulus.
•Skeletal muscles are purely aerobic & don’t have any fuel reserve.
•Dark, light bands & troponin are absent in smooth muscle.
•The study of electrical activity of the muscle is done by electromyography.
•The muscle ruptures when it is stretched to about 3 times its equilibrium length.
