Title: Joints
1Joints
2Types of Joints
Fibrous Sutures between skull bones, between
teeth and jaw and between radius and ulna and
tibia and fibula
Cartilaginous Epiphyseal plate, costal
cartilage, between vertebrae and pubic symphysis
3Types of Synovial Joints
- Gliding intercarpal and intertarsal,
sternoclavicular, acromioclavicular,
sternocostal, and vertebrocostal
- Hinge knee, elbow, ankle and interphalangeal
- Pivot atlanto-axial, radioulnar
- Condyloid wrist and metacarpophalangeal (2-5)
4Types of Synovial Joints
- Saddle carpometacarpal in thumb
- Ball and Socket shoulder and hip
5Types of Movements at Synovial Joints
- Dorsiflexion and Plantar Flexion
6Muscle Tissue
7Connective Tissue Components
- Entire muscle is wrapped in fibrous connective
tissue which is continuous with tendons that
insert skeletal muscle into bone
- This outer connective tissue of muscle can also
be called deep fascia (sheet of fibrous
connective tissue) as compared to superficial
fascia also known as subcutaneous tissue
8Connective Tissue Components
- Connective tissue holds muscle together as well
as serving to transmit blood vessels and nerves
to inner muscle cells
- Connective tissue layers of skeletal muscle
Epimysium - outside of entire muscle
Perimysium - divides muscle cells into fascicles
(bundles)
Endomysium - covers individual muscle cells

10Histology
- Large ? Small fascicle ? fiber ? fibril ?
filament
- Muscle consists of elongated cells called muscle
fibers
Sarco fleshy
- Sarcolemma - cell membrane
11Histology
- Transverse (T) tubule - tubular invagination of
sarcolemma that surrounds each myofibril
- Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) - smooth endoplasmic
reticulum that stores Ca2, has enlarged portions
called cisternae that surround the transverse
tubules

13Histology
- Myofibrils cross section of muscle cell
consists of small cylinders called myofibrils
which may number several 100 to several 1000/cell
(exercise increases myofibril production lack of
exercise decreases myofibrils (atrophy))
Each myofibril consists of myofilaments (protein)
14Histology
- thick myofilaments myosin
- thin myofilaments actin, troponin, tropomyosin
15Histology
- thick myofilaments myosin
- thin myofilaments actin, troponin, tropomyosin
Each myofibril is surrounded by SR
16Histology
- Sarcomere - myofilaments don't extend entire
length of muscle fiber they are stacked into
compartments called sarcomeres
Sarcomeres are the functional unit of a skeletal
muscle (contractile unit)
Myofilament arrangement in sarcomeres results in
alternating pattern of light and dark staining
bands
17Histology (6)
Parts of sarcomere
- A band - myosin overlapping actin, dark
staining band
- I band - only actin, troponin, tropomyosin (2 I
bands / sarcomere), light staining band
- Z disc through center of I band
