Anatomy Part #1

Muscle fiber (red)

elongated multi nucleate cell; has a banded (striated) appearance

Endomysium (between fibers) #6

Individual muscle fiber is surrounded by a fine sheath of connective tissue consisting of areolar and reticular fibers.

Fascicle (purple)

bundle of muscle cells, segregated from the rest of the muscle by a connective tissue sheath (perimysium)

Perimysium #2

Surrounding each fascicle is a layer of fibrous connective tissue

Epimysium #3

An “overcoat“ of dense irregular connective tissue surrounds the whole muscle.

1st Event at the NMJ?

AP travels the link down the neuron to the axon terminal.

NMJ Step 2:

Voltage-gated calcium channels open and calcium ions diffuse into the terminal.

NMJ Step 3:

Calcium entry causes synaptic vesicles to release acetylcholine via exocytosis

NMJ Step 4:

AcH diffuses across the synaptic cleft and vines to the AcH receptors which contain Ligand-gated cation channels

NMJ Step 5:

These ligand-gated cation channels open

NMJ Step 6:

Sodium ions enter the muscle fiber potassium ions exit the muscle fiber. The greater end of flux causes the membrane potential to become less negative.

NMJ Step 7:

Once the membrane potential reaches its threshold value an Action potential (AP )propagates against the sarcolemma

Neuromuscular Junction

area where the axon terminal of a motor neuron meets a motor end plate of a muscle fiber
