HUMAN ANATOMY LECTURE NINE MUSCLES MUSCLE FUNCTIONS • • • • • Body movement Posture Respiration and heart beat Production of body heat - maintains body temperature Communication - speaking, writing, gesturing, facial and body language • Constriction of organs and vessels - helps food move through digestive tract and blood flow • Protects and supports soft tissues • Storage of nutrients PROPERTIES OF MUSCLE • Contractility - ability of a muscle to shorten with force • Excitability - capacity of muscle to respond to a stimulus • Extensibility - muscle can be stretched beyond its normal resting length • Elasticity - ability of muscle to recoil to original resting length after being stretched TYPES OF MUSCLE • Skeletal Muscle - voluntary muscle - responsible for movement, respiration, posture, facial expressions • Smooth Muscle - involuntary - around organs, blood vessels, glands, skin - controlled by endocrine and autonomic nervous system • Cardiac Muscle - autorhythmic - only found in heart - controlled by endocrine and autonomic nervous system SKELETAL MUSCLE • Composed of muscle cells (fibres), connective tissue, blood vessels, nerves • Fibres are long, cylindrical, multinucleated • Smaller in diameter in small muscles and larger in larger muscles • Striated appearance due to light and dark banding SKELETAL MUSCLE STRUCTURE • Epimysium (fascia) - sheath surrounding entire muscle - holds muscle together and separates them into groups - allows freedom of movement - carries nerves, blood vessels, lymphatic vessels - continuous with connective tissue of tendons and periosteum • Muscle Fasciculi - muscle bundles - composed of several muscle fibres - surrounded by connective tissue layer called perimysium • Endomysium - connective tissue surrounding individual muscle fibres NERVE AND BLOOD SUPPLY • Muscle cells are stimulated to contract by motor neuron axons at a neuromuscular junction (synapse) • Axons are branched so that every muscle fibre is innervated • Blood vessels and nerves enter the muscle together and follow the same branching pathway through the perimysium • Within the endomysium arterioles branch into capillary beds surrounding each muscle fibre SKELETAL MUSCLE CELLS (FIBRES) • Sarcoplasm - cytoplasm containing numerous myofibrils • Myofibril - thread-like structure extending length of muscle fibre - made up of proteins (actin and myosin myofilaments) • Sarcomeres - repeating arrangment of actin and myosin - smallest section of muscle capable of contracting • Sarcolemma - cell membrane surrounding a muscle fibre (cell) • Sarcoplasmic reticulum - similar to smooth ER - forms tubular network around each myofibril TRANSVERSE TUBULES • Transverse tubules - narrow tubes continuous with sarcolemma extending into sarcoplasm at right angles to muscle fibre - distributes signal (action potential) to contract through to interior of cell ensuring all cells contract simultaneously • Terminal cisternae - thickening on either side of t-tubule • Triad - terminal cisternae + t-tubule ACTIN (THIN) FILAMENTS • Two strands (F-actin) of pearl-like proteins (G-actin) form a double helix extending the length of the muscle fibre • Thin strand of nebulin holds the Factin together • G-actin contains the active site that binds the myosin during muscle contraction • Tropomyosin winds through the Factin and covers the active sites • Troponin protein found at the ends of the tropomyosin forming the tropomyosin/troponin complex binds Ca+2 and changes position during muscle contraction MYOSIN (THICK) FILAMENTS • Each ‘club’ consists of two heavy myosin molecules wound together to form a rod portion lying parallel with heads that extend laterally • Myosin ‘heads’ - bind to active sites on the active sites on the actin molecules to form crossbridges - attach to the ‘rod’ portion by a hinge that bends and straightens during contraction SARCOMERES Repeating units of actin and myosin along the myofibril - smallest portion of muscle capable of contracting • Z Line - network of protein fibres serving as attachment for actin • I Band - actin filaments only (thin/light) • A Band - length of myosin (thick/dark) • H Zone - myosin only (lighter) • M Line - myosin filaments are attached in center of H Zone Alternating A and I Bands give muscle striated appearance SMOOTH & CARDIAC MUSCLE Smooth Muscle • Not striated, made up of separate distinct cells with an obvious nucleus – less actin and myosin • Contract more slowly with no oxygen dept • Two types: (i) Multinuceate - cells operate independently (ie: iris of eye, blood vessels, erectile muscles of hair (ii) Visceral - cells operate together (ie: surrounding digestive tract, reproductive and excretory organs) Cardiac Muscle • Long, branching cells • Cells are striated but less organized than skeletal muscle • All cells work together as a single unit - autorhythmic contraction • Cells do not develop oxygen dept or fatigue • Connected by intercalated discs GROSS MUSCLE ANATOMY Most muscles extend from bone to bone and cross at least one joint • Tendons - attach muscle to bone • Aponeuroses - broad, sheetlike tendon Muscle terminology: • • • • Origin/head - end of muscle attached to most stationary bone Insertion - end of muscle attached to bone with most movement Belly - largest area between origin and insertion Synergists - muscles that work together to cause a movement - prime mover - plays major role in movement - fixator - hold one bone in place while other bone is moved • Agonist - muscle that causes an action when it contracts • Antagonist - muscle working in opposition to agonist MUSCLE ATTACHMENT MUSCLE TYPES MUSCLE SHAPES MUSCLE NOMENCLATURE Muscles are named according to: • Location - pectoralis, gluteus, brachial • Size - maximus, minimus, longus, brevis • Shape - deltoid, quadratus, teres • Orientation - rectus • Origin and Insertion - sternocleidomastoid, brachioradialis • Number of Heads - biceps, triceps • Function - adductor, masseter MUSCLE MOVEMENT • Muscles, their tendons and bones act together as lever systems to move parts of the body • Muscle contractions are a pull or force by relative positions of the: lever - bone fulcrum - joint weight or resistance - force of gravity due to weight of body parts or weight of object being moved CLASSES OF LEVERS Class I • Fulcrum between force and weight • See saw • Head movement at the atlantooccipital joint Class II • Weight is between fulcrum and pull • Wheelbarrow • Standing on toes, metatarsophalangeal joint Class III • Pull located between fulcrum and weight • Using a shovel • Biceps brachii with elbow as fulcrum BODY MOVEMENTS Flexion vs Extension Flexion - moves body part in anterior or ventral direction Extension - moves body part in posterior or dorsal direction Plantar Flexion vs Dorsiflexion Plantar Flexion - movement of foot toward plantar surface ie: standing on toes Dorsiflexion - movement of foot toward shin ie: walking on heel Abduction vs Adduction Abduction - movement away from midline Adduction - movement toward midline Medial vs Lateral Rotation Medial Rotation - anterior surface of limb rotates toward body Lateral Rotation -
