Mixed muscles of adult frogs respond to the increase in external potassium and to Ach by polyphasic contracture which is due to asynchronous activity of various groups of muscle fibers (fast phasic, intermediate and tonic ones). In the developing in vivo hindlimb muscles, the predominance of phasic contractile response and relatively weak tonic one were noted. In contrast to definitive muscles, in which maximum potassium and acetylcholine contractures are identical, growing muscles produce weak contractile reaction to Ach. Ach sensitivity of the developing muscles (as revealed by the contracture) is lower than in the definitive ones. Histochemical (studies on the lipid content and the activity of succinate dehydrogenase) and morphometric (the ratio of muscle fibers of different types at different stages of development, comparison of their diameters, relative size of tonic bundle, etc.) studies indicate that the development of morphological substrate for tonic contractions (tonic and intermediate muscle fibers) takes place at a lower rate as compared to the development of the substrate for phasic contractions. However, histochemically tonic fibers may be revealed already at the stage of myotubes. 相似文献

Histochemical mapping and fiber size analysis of mimic muscles. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Fourteen functionally relevant mimic muscles of nine human bodies were analyzed with respect to their muscle fiber sizes and their histochemical fiber type composition. In cryostat sections stained for actomyosin ATPase, type 1 and type 2 fibers were evaluated separately by means of computer-assisted image analysis. The fiber diameters varied between 20.24 and 41.45 microns. According to the proportions of the fiber types, the mimic muscles could be classified into three groups: (1) phasic muscles, with 14 to 15 percent type 1 fibers, (2) intermediate muscles, with 28 to 37 percent type 1 fibers, and (3) tonic muscles, containing 41 to 67 percent type 1 fibers. It is concluded that one has to consider this diversity of mimic muscles when planning the surgical reconstruction of facial paralysis. 相似文献

An Attempt to Account for the Diversity of Crustacean Muscles 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Crustacean muscles are known to contain muscle fibers of variableproperties and to be innervated by phasic and/or tonic motoneuronswhich may possess synapses of diverse physiological properties.Frequently, phasic motor axons innervate short-sarcomere phasicmuscle fibers and tonic motor axons innervate long-sarcomeretonic muscle fibers, but some muscles receiving a single (tonic)motor axon contain both phasic and tonic muscle fibers. Althoughit is not known whether neural trophic influences are involvedin muscle differentiation, some neural trophic effects havebeen found in crustaceans, and it is reasonable to assume thatsuch influences may be involved in establishing the definitiveproperties of the muscle. Several other postulates must be made:(1) Phasic and tonic motor axons differ in their trophic effectiveness:(2) muscle fibers innervated relatively early in developmentby a tonic motor axon acquire the properties of tonic musclefibers, while those innervated later become intermediate orphasic muscle fibers; (3) the developmental stage of a growingor regenerating axon terminal plays a role in determinationof synaptic properties. Studies on regenerating limb buds supportthe hypothesis, which can account for the genesis of all observedtypes of crustacean neuromuscular system. Further experimentalwork is necessary to test the hypothesis. 相似文献

A histochemical survey was done on the fiber composition of 12 different locomotory muscles in the lizard Dipsosaurus dorsalis. Three types of fibers were found in all muscles: (1) fast-twitch-glycolytic (FG); (2) fast-twitch-oxidative-glycolytic (FOG); and (3) tonic fibers. Virtually all locomotory muscles contain some tonic fibers. Most muscles have bulk white regions (containing mostly FG fibers) and distinct red, oxidative regions (with FOG and tonic fibers). These red regions are predominantly located around the joints in the hind limb muscles, and probably serve a postural and joint-stabilizing function. The predominance of FG fibers in the bulk white regions is well-correlated with the rapid, anaerobically supported predator escape behavior of D. dosalis. 相似文献

Postnatal differentiation and growth of the fibers comprising the tonic soleus and phasic plantaris muscles, were investigated histochemically in kittens. Compensatory hypertrophy was induced by ablation of the synergistic gastrocnemius muscle.At birth both muscles consist of relatively homogeneous fiber populations as demonstrated by myosin ATPase and succinic dehydrogenase activities and glycogen content (PAS method). Differential myosin ATPase activities become evident during the first week (soleus and plantaris), while diversification of fiber types according to SDH and glycogen develop gradually and independently during the first 2 mo of life (plantaris).Compensatory hypertrophy is associated with a substantial enlargement of both dark and light fibers (incubated for myosin ATPase) and, with increases in SDH activity which are most notable in fibers that normally are low in this enzyme. The normal growth associated reduction in the percentage of fibers with high myosin ATPase activity is significantly accelerated in the hypertrophic soleus, while the hypertrophic plantaris, which normally undergoes only a slight reduction in the percentage of such fibers, is unaffected. These results underline the paramount role of the nerve fiber in the process of differentiation but also indicate that functional overload exerts a modifying influence on this process. 相似文献

Skeletal muscles can be classified as flexors or extensors according to their function, and as dorsal or ventral according to their position. The latter classification evokes their embryological origin from muscle masses initially divided during limb development, and muscles sharing a given position do not necessarily perform the same function. Here, we compare the relative proportions of different fiber types among six limb muscles in the lizard Tropidurus psammonastes. Individual fibers were classified as slow oxidative (SO), fast glycolytic (FG) or fast oxidative-glycolytic (FOG) based on mitochondrial content; muscles were classified according to position and function. Mixed linear models considering one or both effects were compared using likelihood ratio tests. Variation in the proportion of FG and FOG fibers is mainly explained by function (flexor muscles have on average lower proportions of FG and higher proportions of FOG fibers), while variation in SO fibers is better explained by position (they are less abundant in ventral muscles than in those developed from a dorsal muscle mass). Our results clarify the roles of position and function in determining the relative proportions of the various muscle fibers and provide evidence that these factors may differentially affect distinct fiber types. 相似文献

The guinea pig soleus muscle is a convenient model for the study of slow-twitch intermediate (STI) fiber ultrastructure because it is composed entirely of fibers of this class. Such fibers were compared with fast-twitch red (FTR) and fast-twitch white (FTW) fibers from the vastus lateralis muscle. FTW fibers are characterized by small, sparse mitochondria, a narrow Z line and, an extensive sarcoplasmic reticulum arranged primarily in longitudinal profiles at the A band and with numerous expansions at the I band. Abundant mitochondria with a dense matrix and subsarcolemmal and perinuclear aggregations are typical of FTR fibers. These fibers contain a plexus of sarcoplasmic reticulum at the A band and a less extensive network at the I band. The Z lines are wider (890 ± 74 Å) than those of FTW fibers (582 ± 62 Å). STI intermediate fibers are distinguished from other types by wide Z lines (1205 ± 58 Å), a faint M band, and a less extensive sarcoplasmic reticulum. Compared to FTR fibers, STI fiber mitochondria are usually smaller with less notable subsarcolemmal accumulations. FTW fibers have a more limited capillary supply, rarely contain lipid inclusions, and thus may be restricted to phasic activity. Extensive capillarity, mitochondrial and lipid context, and fast contraction times indicate possible phasic and tonic roles for FTR fibers. STI fibers, characterized by numerous lipid inclusions, extensive capillarity, relatively numerous mitochondria, but slow contraction-relaxation cycles, are morphologically suited for tonic muscle activity. 相似文献

A quantitative histochemical study was carried out on axial musculature of Noemacheilus barbatulus L. On the basis of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and myofibrillar ATP-ase activity, 5 types of muscle fibers are described. When the SDH method was used, red, tonic, intermediate, and white muscle fibers were easily observed. However, histochemical reaction for myofibrillar ATP-ase activity, after alkaline preincubation (pH = 10.4), revealed another type of fiber zone laying between the intermediate and white muscle fiber regions and forming a transitional zone. Electron microscopic observation showed significant differences in sarcomere organization and thickness of myosin filaments of the various muscle fiber types. 相似文献

Ultrastructural examination of crayfish superficial (tonic)and deep (phasic) abdominal extensor muscles reveals a distributionand quantitative difference in glycogen between these muscles.Both superficial and deep fibers have a dense accumulation ofglycogen in the interfibrillar sarcoplasm. In addition, thesuperficial extensors, but not the deep extensors, contain glycogenin the I band region. The glycogen granules are of the ßtype and can be removed enzymatically. The superficial medialand lateral fibers contain more glycogen than the medial andlateral deep fibers. A possible functional role for this differenceis suggested. 相似文献

By means of morphometrical and histochemical methods for revealing myosin ATPase and SDG activity development of various types of muscle fibers (MF) has been studied in the postmortem material, using m. biceps and m. triceps brachii in human ontogenesis. The flexors and extensors have features in common in the dynamics of the MF maturation, and some distinctive peculiarities. The appearance of histochemical distinctions between the MF takes place on the 5th-6th months of the intrauterine development. Morphofunctional specialization begins with formation of tonic fibers. During the 1st-2nd years phasic fibers form. A relative amount of fast MF in both muscles increases at the age of 11-12 years. The dynamics of final specialization of the MF is connected with stages of sexual maturation. The first stage of the sexual maturation (about 14 years of age) is connected with decrease in the relative amount of the MF of glycolytic type of energy supply and corresponding increase in the number of oxidative type structures. From 15-17 years of age a final differentiation begins, it is connected with an intensive transversal growth of all the MF and distinguish of thick glycolytic MF. The m. biceps brachii has a relatively greater amount of oxidative fibers, and the m. triceps brachii, glycolytic ones. The transversal section area of the MF in the m. triceps brachii exceeds that of the m. biceps brachii, beginning from the 7th month of the intrauterine development up to 14 years of age. The investigation performed does not reveal any anticipating development either in the flexors or in the extensors. The differentiating processes in the m. biceps and m. triceps brachii occur nearly simultaneously. 相似文献

There are two pairs of muscles in each abdominal segment of the crab; one pair of flexors and one pair of extensors. In the early larval stages the muscles have short sarcomeres--a property of fast fibers--and high thin to thick filament ratios--a property of slow fibers. In the adult the abdominal muscles are intermediate and slow, since they have fibers with intermediate and long sarcomeres, high thin to thick filament ratios, low myofibrillar ATPase activity, and high NADH diaphorase activity. The different fiber types are regionally distributed within the flexor muscle. Microelectrode recordings from single flexor muscle fibers in the adult showed that most fibers are supplied by three excitatory motor axons, although some are supplied by as many as five efferents. One axon supplies all of the flexor muscle fibers in its own hemisegment, and the evoked junctional potentials exhibit depression. This feature together with the innervation patterns of the fibers are similar to those reported for the deep flexor muscles of crayfish and lobsters. Therefore, in the adult crab, the abdominal flexor muscles have some features in common with the slow superficial flexors of crayfish and other features in common with the fast deep flexor muscles. 相似文献

Skeletal muscle fibers vary in contractile and metabolic properties. Four main fiber types are present in mammalian trunk and limb muscles; they are called I, IIA, IIX, and IIB, ranging from slowest- to fastest-contracting. Individual muscles contain stereotyped proportions of two or more fiber types. Fiber type is determined by a combination of nerve-dependent and -independent influences, leading to formation of "homogeneous motor units" in which all branches of a single motor neuron form synapses on fibers of a single type. Fiber type composition of muscles can be altered in adulthood by multiple factors including exercise, denervation, hormones, and aging. To facilitate analysis of muscle development, plasticity, and innervation, we generated transgenic mouse lines in which Type I, Type IIA, and Type IIX+B fibers can be selectively labeled with distinguishable fluorophores. We demonstrate their use for motor unit reconstruction and live imaging of nerve-dependent alterations in fiber type. 相似文献

Studies of sleep influences on human pharyngeal and other respiratory muscles suggest that the activity of these muscles may be affected by non-rapid-eye-movement (NREM) sleep in a nonuniform manner. This variable sleep response may relate to the pattern of activation of the muscle (inspiratory phasic vs. tonic) and peripheral events occurring in the airway. Furthermore, the ability of these muscles to respond to respiratory stimuli during NREM sleep may also differ. To systematically investigate the effect of NREM sleep on respiratory muscle activity, we studied two tonic muscles [tensor palatini (TP), masseter (M)] and two inspiratory phasic ones [genioglossus (GG), diaphragm (D)], also measuring the response of these muscles to inspiratory resistive loading (12 cmH2O.l-1.s) during wakefulness and NREM sleep. Seven normal male subjects were studied on a single night with intramuscular electrodes placed in the TP and GG and surface electrodes placed over the D and M. Sleep stage, inspiratory airflow, and moving time average electromyograph (EMG) of the above four muscles were continuously recorded. The EMG of both tonic muscles fell significantly (P less than 0.05) during NREM sleep [TP awake, 4.3 +/- 0.05 (SE) arbitrary units, stage 2, 1.1 +/- 0.2; stage 3/4, 1.0 +/- 0.2. Masseter awake, 4.8 +/- 0.6; stage 2, 3.3 +/- 0.5; stage 3/4, 3.1 +/- 0.5]. On the other hand, the peak phasic EMG of both inspiratory phasic muscles (GG and D) was well maintained.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

It has long been suggested that in skeletal muscle, the ATP-sensitive K(+) channel (K(ATP)) channel is important in protecting energy levels and that abolishing its activity causes fiber damage and severely impairs function. The responses to a lack of K(ATP) channel activity vary between muscles and fibers, with the severity of the impairment being the highest in the most glycolytic muscle fibers. Furthermore, glycolytic muscle fibers are also expected to face metabolic stress more often than oxidative ones. The objective of this study was to determine whether the t-tubular K(ATP) channel content differs between muscles and fiber types. K(ATP) channel content was estimated using a semiquantitative immunofluorescence approach by staining cross sections from soleus, extensor digitorum longus (EDL), and flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) muscles with anti-Kir6.2 antibody. Fiber types were determined using serial cross sections stained with specific antimyosin I, IIA, IIB, and IIX antibodies. Changes in Kir6.2 content were compared with changes in CaV1.1 content, as this Ca(2+) channel is responsible for triggering Ca(2+) release from sarcoplasmic reticulum. The Kir6.2 content was the lowest in the oxidative soleus and the highest in the glycolytic EDL and FDB. At the individual fiber level, the Kir6.2 content within a muscle was in the order of type IIB > IIX > IIA ≥ I. Interestingly, the Kir6.2 content for a given fiber type was significantly different between soleus, EDL, and FDB, and highest in FDB. Correlations of relative fluorescence intensities from the Kir6.2 and CaV1.1 antibodies were significant for all three muscles. However, the variability in content between the three muscles or individual fibers was much greater for Kir6.2 than for CaV1.1. It is suggested that the t-tubular K(ATP) channel content increases as the glycolytic capacity increases and as the oxidative capacity decreases and that the expression of K(ATP) channels may be linked to how often muscles/fibers face metabolic stress. 相似文献

Extrinsic eye muscles of newts and salamanders were investigated by means of electron microscope. It was possible to distinguish two types of muscle fiber tonic-slow and twitch-fast acting ones. It was shown that mioneural junctions in both types of fibers differ in their ultrastructural organization because of lack of post-synaptic infoldings on the surface of slow tonic fibers. After "cholinesterase" "staining" it was possible to measure the surface of junctional area and correlate it with the diameter of particular muscle fiber. The results show a positive correlation. 相似文献

The skeletal muscles of rotifers and their innervation 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
The skeletal muscles of rotifers are monocellular or occasionally bicellular. They display great diversity of cytological features correlated to their functional differentiation. The cross-striated fibers of some retractors are fast contracting and relaxing, with A-band lengths of 0.7 µm to 1.6 µm, abundant sarcoplasmic reticulum and dyads. Other retractors and the circular muscles are tonic fibers (A band > 3 µm), stronger (large volume of myoplasm) or with greater endurance (superior volume of mitochondria/ myoplasm). All of these retractor muscles are coupled by gap junctions and are innervated at two symmetrical points; they constitute two motor units implicated in withdrawal behaviour.The muscles inserted on the ciliary roots of the cingulum control swimming. They are multi-innervated and each of them constitute one motor unit. They have characteristics of very fast fibers; the shortest A-band length is 0.5 µm in Asplanchna.All the skeletal muscles of bdelloids are smooth or obliquely striated as are some skeletal muscles of monogononts. These muscles are well suited for maximum shortening and are either phasic or tonic fibers.All rotifer skeletal muscles originate from ectoderm and contain thin and thick myofilaments whose diameters are identical to those of actin and myosin filaments in vertebrate fast muscles or in insect flight muscles. There are no paramyosinic features in the thick myofilaments. The insertion, innervation, coupling by gap junctions and other cytological differentiations of rotifer skeletal muscles are reviewed and their phylogeny discussed. 相似文献

In the rat, a species widely used to study the neural mechanisms of sleep and motor control, lingual electromyographic activity (EMG) is minimal during non-rapid eye movement (non-REM) sleep and then phasic twitches gradually increase after the onset of REM sleep. To better characterize the central neural processes underlying this pattern, we quantified EMG of muscles innervated by distinct subpopulations of hypoglossal motoneurons and nuchal (N) EMG during transitions from non-REM sleep to REM sleep. In 8 chronically instrumented rats, we recorded cortical EEG, EMG at sites near the base of the tongue where genioglossal and intrinsic muscle fibers predominate (GG-I), EMG of the geniohyoid (GH) muscle, and N EMG. Sleep-wake states were identified and EMGs quantified relative to their mean levels in wakefulness in successive 10 s epochs. During non-REM sleep, the average EMG levels differed among the three muscles, with the order being N>GH>GG-I. During REM sleep, due to different magnitudes of phasic twitches, the order was reversed to GG-I>GH>N. GG-I and GH exhibited a gradual increase of twitching that peaked at 70-120 s after the onset of REM sleep and then declined if the REM sleep episode lasted longer. We propose that a common phasic excitatory generator impinges on motoneuron pools that innervate different muscles, but twitching magnitudes are different due to different levels of tonic motoneuronal hyperpolarization. We also propose that REM sleep episodes of average durations are terminated by intense activity of the central generator of phasic events, whereas long REM sleep episodes end as a result of a gradual waning of the tonic disfacilitatory and inhibitory processes. 相似文献

The present study examined the fiber-type proportions of 22 muscles spanning the shoulder and/or elbow joints of three Macaca mulatta. Fibers were classified as one of three types: fast-glycolytic (FG), fast-oxidative-glycolytic (FOG), or slow-oxidative (SO). In most muscles, the FG fibers predominated, but proportions ranged from 25-67% in different muscles. SO fibers were less abundant except in a few deep, small muscles where they comprised as much as 56% of the fibers. Cross-sectional area (CSA) of the three fiber types was measured in six different muscles. FG fibers tended to be the largest, whereas SO fibers were the smallest. While fiber-type size was not always consistent between muscles, the relative size of FG fibers was generally larger than FOG and SO fibers within the same muscle. When fiber CSA was taken into consideration, FG fibers were found to comprise over 50% of the muscle's CSA in almost all muscles. 相似文献

We compared the influence of external calcium and the inhibitor (dantrolene) and activator (4-chloro-m-cresol) of ryanodine-sensitive Ca channels of the sarcoplasmic reticulum on the characteristics of potassium contracture in phasic and tonic frog skeletal muscle fibers. The duration of contracture in tonic fibers, as contrasted to the phasic ones, is not limited by the presence of Ca2+. The tonic contractile response is virtually indifferent to dantrolene and is much less sensitive to chlorocresol than the phasic one (1 mM vs. 0.25 mM). In phasic fibers, the K+ contracture on the chlorocresol background is quite similar in amplitude and dynamics to that in control, whereas tonic fibers exhibit response summation without relaxation upon removal of excessive K+. One can suggest that in phasic fibers the Ca2+ influx can directly create a level sufficient to sustain contraction, while in tonic fibers its effect is mediated by Ca-dependent activation of the beta isoform of the ryanodine-sensitive channel. 相似文献

A histochemical and enzymatic study of the muscle fiber types in the water monitor, Varanus salvator
T T Gleeson 《The Journal of experimental zoology》1983,227(2):191-201
Histochemical analysis of five muscles from the water monitor, Varanus salvator, identified three major classes of fibers based on histochemical activities of the enzymes myosin ATPase (mATPase), succinic dehydrogenase (SDH), and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (alpha GPDH). Fast-twitch, glycolytic (FG) fibers were the most abundant fiber type and exhibited the following reaction product intensities: mATPase, dark; SDH, light; alpha GPDH, moderate to dark. Fast-twitch, oxidative, glycolytic (FOG) fibers were characteristically mATPase, dark; SDH, light; alpha GPDH, moderate to dark. The third class of fibers had the following histochemical characteristics: mATPase, light; SDH, moderate to dark; alpha GPDH, light. These fibers were considered to be either slow twitch, or tonic, and oxidative (S/O). Pyruvate kinase (PK), alpha GPDH, and citrate synthase (CS) activities were measured in homogenates of the same muscles studied histochemically. There was a positive relationship between both PK and alpha GPDH activities and the percentage of glycolytic fiber types within a muscle. Likewise, CS activities were greater in muscles high in FOG and S/O content. Based on CS activities, Varanus S/O fibers were eight-fold more oxidative than FG fibers within the same muscle. PK/CS ratios suggested that FG fibers possess high anaerobic capacity, similar to the iguanid lizard Dipsosaurus. The fiber type composition of the gastrocnemius muscle, relative to that of other lizard species, suggests that varanid lizards may possess a greater proportion of FOG and S/O fibers than other lizards. 相似文献
