The fibre type composition of the striated muscle layer of the oesophagus of the cow, sheep, donkey, dog and cat was examined with standard histochemical methods and immunohistochemical staining using type-specific antimyosin sera. The heavy chain and light chain composition of oesophageal myosin was also examined using electrophoretic peptide mapping and 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis respectively. In the ruminants and donkey the oesophagus was composed of fibre types I, IIA and IIC with immunohistochemical characteristics identical to those of the same fibre types found in control skeletal muscle. In the ruminants there was a gradient in the proportion of type I fibres from 1% (at the cervical end) to about 30% (at the caudal end). In the carnivores the oesophageal muscle was composed of a very small percentage of type I and IIC fibres, but the predominant type was very different histochemically and immunohistochemically from all the fibre types (I, IIA, IIB, IIC) present in the control muscles. This oesophageal fibre type ( IIoes ) had an acid- and alkaline-stable m-ATPase activity, a moderate histochemical Ca-Mg actomyosin ATPase activity, and reacted weakly with anti-IIA and anti-IIB myosin sera. Although the light chains of the IIoes myosin were the same as the light chains of a mixture of IIA and IIB myosins, their respective heavy chains gave different peptide maps. Greater differences were obtained between the heavy chains of IIoes and other striated muscle myosins. These observations lead us to conclude that this predominant fibre type of the carnivore oesophageal striated muscle is of the 'fast' type, and contains a distinct isoform of myosin similar but not identical to the other fast type myosins. 相似文献

A specific histochemical profile of the muscular tunic of the stomach has been revealed; its myons demonstrate a high succinate dehydrogenase and myofibrillar ATPase activity. Electrical activity of the oesophageal musculature has common features with biopotentials of the skeletal muscles and the smooth musculature of the stomach. The similiarity with the skeletal muscle biopotentials is evident as a peculiar spike activity, especially at the time of feeding. In electrograms of the striated oesophageal muscles slow waves are seen; they change at deprivation and feeding. Therefore, it is possible to compare them with the smooth musculature capable to generate slow waves. 相似文献

The histochemical activity of adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) was studied at light and electron microscopic levels in larval tail musculature of Rana catesbeiana and Rana ornativentris during late metamorphic stages. The presence of low, moderate or dark reaction of K2-EDTA-preincubated Ca++-ATPase was correlated with the variable degree of degeneration of white fibres even at the late stage of tail resorption. The reasons for an increase in this ATPase activity in degenerating white muscle fibres are discussed. Irrespective of the degree of degeneration, all red fibres showed high ATPase reaction. During myocytolysis, it is shown that the SR vesicles accumulate electron dense amorphous material. The degree of myofibrillar disintegration correlated with decrease in ultrastructural reaction product for Mg++-ATPase. Although grouped atrophy of muscle fibres (as seen in Xenopus laevis, den Hartog Jager et al., 1973, 1975) was absent in musculature of resorptive tails, ultrastructural characteristics including proliferation of SR and dilation of its vesicles represent alteration of the normal neural influence on the skeletal muscle fibres. 相似文献

The iliofibularis is a hindlimb muscle used in lizard locomotion that is composed of at least three types of fibres: fast‐twitch‐glycolytic (FG), fast‐twitch‐oxidative‐glycolytic fibre (FOG) and slow‐twitch‐oxidative (SO). The striated skeletal muscle is a highly plastic tissue undergoing phenotypic change in response to activity. The lizard Sceloporus torquatus has sexual differences associated with microhabitat use, which can be reflected in the physiology and anatomy of the muscle, and thus, in our study, we analysed the morphological and contractile characteristics of the iliofibularis muscle (IF) of S. torquatus males and females. We found a larger prevalence of FOG compared with FG and SO fibres in the muscle of both sexes. We also found that males show larger areas of the three types of fibres, develop greater strength but also faster fatigue than females, suggesting that strength is a key functional feature that enables males to perform faster movements (but for shorter periods), associated with the demands of territoriality. 相似文献

Intrafusal muscle fibres in adult muscle spindles differ in their myosin composition. After selective motor denervation intrafusal muscle fibres develop mature ultrastructural characteristics. In order to evaluate the role of fusimotor innervation on the maturation of the myosin composition of intrafusal muscle fibres we have examined with immunohistochemical techniques i) the postnatal development of muscle spindles in new-born rats and in 7-21 day old rats; ii) muscle spindles in the EDL of 21-day-old rats de-efferented at birth. For the characterization of myosins in intrafusal fibres we used three myosin antisera: antipectoral myosin, antiheart myosin and antiheart myosin adsorbed with muscle powder from the soleus muscle of guinea pig. We show in this study that during development intrafusal fibres change immunoreactivity and that in the absence of motor innervation bag fibres do not fully develop the myosin characteristics of control spindles. We conclude that the maturation of bag1 and bag2 fibres apparently requires next to the inductive influence of sensory axon terminals the presence and activity of fusimotor axons. 相似文献

Frog ventricular cardiac muscle has structural features which set it apart from frog and mammalian skeletal muscle and mammalian cardiac muscle. In describing these differences, our attention focused chiefly on the distribution of cellular membranes. Abundant inter cellular clefts, the absence of tranverse tubules, and the paucity of sarcotubules, together with exceedingly small cell diameters (less than 5 µ), support the suggestion that the mechanism of excitation-contraction coupling differs in these muscle cells from that now thought to be characteristic of striated muscle such as skeletal muscle and mammalian cardiac muscle. These structural dissimilarities also imply that the mechanism of relaxation in frog ventricular muscle differs from that considered typical of other striated muscles. Additional ultrastructural features of frog ventricular heart muscle include spherical electron-opaque bodies on thin filaments, inconstantly present, forming a rank across the I band about 150 mµ from the Z line, and membrane-bounded dense granules resembling neurosecretory granules. The functional significance of these features is not yet clear. 相似文献

Cat hindlimb muscles, deprived of their somatic innervation, have been examined with fluorescence and electron microscopy and in teased, silver preparations; normal diaphragm muscles have been examined with electron microscopy only. An autonomic innervation was found to be supplied to both intra- and extrafusal muscle fibres. It is not present in all muscle spindles and is not supplied at all to tendon organs. Fluorescence microscopy revealed a noradrenergic innervation distributed to extrafusal muscle fibres and some spindles. On the basis of the vesicle content of varicosities the extrafusal innervation was identified as noradrenergic (32 axons traced), and the spindle innervation as involving noradrenergic, cholinergic and non-adrenergic axons (14 traced). Some of the noradrenergic axons that innervate spindles and extrafusal muscle fibres are branches of axons that also innervate blood vessels. We cannot say whether there are any noradrenergic axons that are exclusively distributed to intra- or extrafusal muscle fibres. The varicosities themselves may be in neuroeffective association with striated muscle fibres only, or with both striated fibres and the smooth muscle cells in the walls of blood vessels. The functional implications of this direct autonomic innervation of muscle spindles and skeletal muscle fibres are discussed and past work on the subject is evaluated. 相似文献

While it has been recognized for many years that different limb muscles belonging to the same mammal may have markedly differing contractile characteristics, it is only comparatively recently that it has been demonstrated that these differences depend upon the motor innervation. By appropriately changing the peripheral nerve innervating a mammalian skeletal muscle, it is possible to change dramatically the contractile behaviour of the reinnervated muscle. The manner by which the motor innervation determines the nature of a muscle fibre's contractile machinery is not completely understood, but it appears that the number and pattern of motor nerve impulses reaching the muscle play an important role. The biochemical changes occurring within muscle fibres whose contractile properties have been modified by altered motor innervation include the synthesis of different contractile proteins. 相似文献

Fatigue, polarization level and excitability of striated muscle fibers from ischemia zone were studied on experimental rats under the tourniquet shock. It was established that violation-mediated contraction and fatigue of skeletal muscle was associated with a decrease in a number of muscle fibers with high level of MPP. The article discussed the mechanisms of fatigue and depolarization of muscle fibres in tourniquet shock. 相似文献

We have found two important sets of abnormalities in skeletal muscle from mice with embryonic muscular dysgenesis. These abnormalities involve the internal structural organization of the muscle fiber and its content of voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels. The first abnormality concerns the ultrastructural aspects of the membranous couplings between sarcoplasmic reticulum and the transverse tubules, known as triads. The triads are less numerous, are disorganized, and lack spaced densities (feet). The second abnormality is a significant decrease in specific binding sites for the dihydropyridine derivatives, (known as Ca2+ channel inhibitors) in striated skeletal muscle, but not in cardiac muscle. Both sets of abnormalities are potentially directly linked to the uncoupling of excitation and contraction. 相似文献

Chemical and immunochemical characteristics of tropomyosins from striated and smooth muscle 总被引:21,自引:2,他引:19
1. On electrophoresis in dissociating conditions the tropomyosins isolated from skeletal muscles of mammalian, avian and amphibian species migrated as two components. These were comparable with the alpha and beta subunits of tropomyosin present in rabbit skeletal muscle. 2. The alpha and beta components of all skeletal-muscle tropomyosins contained 1 and 2 residues of cysteine per 34000g respectively. 3. The ratio of the amounts of alpha and beta subunit present in skeletal muscle tropomyosins was characteristic for the muscle type. Muscle consisting of slow red fibres contained a greater proportion of beta-tropomyosin than muscles consisting predominantly of white fast fibres. 4. Mammalian and avian cardiac muscle tropomyosins consisted of alpha-tropomyosin only. 5. Mammalian and avian smooth-muscle tropomyosins differed both chemically and immunologically from striated-muscle tropomyosins. 6. Antibody raised against rabbit skeletal alpha-tropomyosin was species non-specific, reacting with all other striated muscle alpha-tropomyosin subunits tested. 7. Antibody raised against rabbit skeletal beta-tropomyosin subunit was species-specific. 相似文献

By means of neurohistological, histochemical and ultramicroscopical techniques it has been revealed that motor innervation of the oesophageal striated muscle tissue in rats and rabbits is performed by amyelinated nervous fibers, that terminate as nervous-muscle synapses. Ultrastructural peculiarities of these synapses are presented as a large amount of synaptic vesicles in the axonal terminal, as a poor ramification of secondary synaptic folds, as a considerable amount of mitochondria in the adjoining sarcoplasm. Reaction to acetylcholinesterase demonstrates that most of the motor nervous terminals belong to the racemose type. They are situated in the oesophageal musculature chaotically and have less area than synapses of the muscle of the locomotor apparatus. 相似文献

The cellular localization of IGF-II protein was investigated during larval and postlarval developmental stages of sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) by immunohistochemistry using antisera raised against Sparus aurata IGF-II. At hatching, IGF-II immunoreactivity was already present in the skin, developing intestine and skeletal muscle. During larval life IGF-II protein was also observed in heart musculature, in kidney and gill epithelia as well as in liver. In fry skeletal muscle a moderate IGF-II immunostaining was detected in red fibres, whereas white muscle fibres exhibited a faint immunoreactivity. In adults, a marked IGF-II immunostaining was observed in red muscle fibres. A moderate immunoreactivity was also present in white fibres as well as in heart striated myocardial fibres. These results are in agreement with previous findings on the spatial localization of IGF-II and IGF type 1 receptor in S. aurata and Umbrina cirrosa, confirming the role of IGF system during development and growth of fish. 相似文献

Mitochondrial gene expression in mammalian striated muscle. Evidence that variation in gene dosage is the major regulatory event 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18

The oxidative capacity of mammalian striated muscles can vary markedly over a nearly 10-fold range, reflecting major differences in the expression of genes that encode enzymes of oxidative metabolism, including genes located exclusively within mitochondrial DNA. To clarify the regulatory events that govern expression of mitochondrial genes in striated muscle, nucleic acid hybridization procedures employing cloned segments of mitochondrial DNA as probes were utilized to determine the concentrations of mitochondrial DNA, mitochondrial ribosomal RNA, and cytochrome b mRNA (a mitochondrial gene product) in rabbit striated muscles of markedly different oxidative capacities. When cardiac muscle and Type I (red, oxidative) skeletal muscle were compared to Type II (white, glycolytic) skeletal muscle, mitochondrial DNA, mitochondrial ribosomal RNA, and cytochrome b mRNA, each increased in direct proportion to increases in oxidative capacity. Furthermore, when the phenotypic characteristics of Type II skeletal muscle were altered by electrical stimulation in vivo, mitochondrial DNA, mitochondrial rRNA, and cytochrome b mRNA also increased proportionately with increases in oxidative capacity. These results indicate that the expression of mitochondrial genes in mammalian striated muscle is proportionate to their copy number, and support the hypothesis that amplification of the mitochondrial genome relative to chromosomal DNA is an important feature underlying enhanced expression of mitochondrial genes in highly oxidative tissues. 相似文献

A systematic survey of motor innervation in the myotomal muscle fibres in several groups of fishes was conducted to observe the extent of dual innervation, a phenomenon found within those myotomal muscle fibres with terminal innervation. It is concluded that the dually innervated myotomal muscle fibre is a primitive vertebrate feature. Furthermore, it is suggested that this particular form of polyneuronal innervation is retained in the course of neural evolution within the homogeneous white myotomal muscle fibre region in these fish groups in order to insure synchrony of firing during sudden, rapid locomotion. The findings are examined in light of current ideas regarding the direct adrenergic innervation in addition to cholinergic innervation of striated muscle fibres. 相似文献
