Speed of contraction:
4
Energy Sources ATP provides immediate energy for muscle contractions from 3 sources Creatine phosphate During resting conditions stores energy to synthesize ATP Anaerobic respiration Occurs in absence of oxygen and results in breakdown of glucose to yield ATP and lactic acid Aerobic respiration Requires oxygen and breaks down glucose to produce ATP, carbon dioxide and water More efficient than anaerobic
8
Slow and Fast Fibers Slow-twitch or high-oxidative
Contract more slowly, smaller in diameter, better blood supply, more mitochondria, more fatigue-resistant than fast-twitch Fast-twitch or low-oxidative Respond rapidly to nervous stimulation, contain myosin to break down ATP more rapidly, less blood supply, fewer and smaller mitochondria than slow-twitch Distribution of fast-twitch and slow twitch Most muscles have both but varies for each muscle Effects of exercise Hypertrophies: Increases in muscle size Atrophies: Decreases in muscle size
10
Myosin-regulated contraction
Ca2+ entry and release from SR Ca2+-CaM-MLCK-dependent phosphorylation of myosin light chains . crossbridge cycling Contraction
11
Relaxation in smooth muscle
[Ca2+] decreases Ca channels close RyR close CaM-MLCK activity decr. Phosphatase dephosphorylates MLC Relax
12
Smooth muscle contracts slowly and efficiently.
Blood vessels GI tract lung airways
13
Smooth muscle can contract without change in voltage: hormones and drugs activate IP3 production and Ca2+ release from SR.
14
Regulation of Arteriolar Smooth Muscle
Constriction Sympathetic: norepinephrine released receptor receptor splanchnic and skin Antidiuretic hormone/vasopressin Angiotensin II
15
Regulation of Arteriolar Smooth Muscle
Dilation Sympathetic: epinephrine receptor muscle, heart, liver Parasympathetic: ACh Endothelia respond by producing NO Reduce norepinephrine output EDRF - NO Histamine - mast cells Adenosine - low [O2] Lactic acid, high [K+] and metabolites?
16
Smooth Muscle Regulation
Innervated by autonomic nervous system Neurotransmitter are acetylcholine and norepinephrine Hormones important as epinephrine and oxytocin Receptors present on plasma membrane which neurotransmitters or hormones bind determines response
