This chapter introduces the structure and the function of three muscle types (skeletal, cardiac, and smooth). With the skeletal and cardiac muscle cells, their sarcomere organization, molecular make up with thick and thin filaments, and differences in the cross-bridge kinetics are discussed. This ...
Highly specialized in form and function, each muscle cell optimally performs its required function, though there is variation amongst muscle cells within each category. Three different types of muscle cells make up the human body: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Humans classify them as either volunta...

Structure-function considerations of muscle-tendon junctions. Skeletal muscle cells transmit force across the cell membrane to the extracellular matrix and ultimately to tendons. Force transmission may occur both alon... JA Trotter - 《Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol》 被引量: 85发表: ...
Structure and Function of Airway Smooth Muscle Airway smooth muscleis a structural component of the walls of all of the airways within the bronchialtree, from the trachea to the smallest respiratorybronchioles(1,2). In the lung parenchymal tissue, smooth muscle is found within the alveolar ducts...

Muscle Cells Have a Highly Organized Structure Muscle cells are typically large cells, some 20–100 μm in diameter and many centimeters long, with the longest fibers being about 12 cm. These cells are multinucleated, because they need many nuclei to govern protein synthesis and degradation. The...
Transdifferentiation of human non-muscle cells directly into myogenic cells by forced expression of MyoD represents one route to obtain highly desirable human myogenic cells. However, functional properties of the tissue constructs derived from these tran
