Muscular System review
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| cardiac action potential | *sodium enters/depolarization to threshhold *thershold opens vgate sodium, more sodium enters *Sodium gates close, K channels open *PLATEAU |
| plateau is due to influx of Ca which is + ion, which flows in from ECF to ICF to this effect | maintains/extends AP time by keeping cell at +20mV |
| repolarization of cardiac muscle occurs due to | due to closure of Ca channels and K outflow when additional Vgate K channels open |
| smooth muscle also uses Ca from ECF to effect | *digestive/urinary processes to expel |
| Ca blocking drugs used for | anti-HTN: block Ca channels in sm musc of blood vessels --> unable to constrict, therefore vasodilation remains |
| Beta Blockers will | decrease bp bwo decreased CO |
| heart can switch to anaerobic metabolism by this rxn | ADP + creatine kinase --> ATP + creatine |
| lab test for creatine kinase tells us what | if myocardial muscles have died, as evidenced by creatine generated by anaerobic metab prior to death (thereby liberating the enzyme to blood) |
| CK isoenzymes include | sk muscle (CKmm), heart (CK MB), brain (CKbb) |
| cardiac muscle is loaded with these ATP producing cells | mitochondria |
| *Troponin is released from myocardium @ death *CK released @ myocardium death | heart muscle dies and these markers are present |
