striated muscle contraction

Definition

Target type: biologicalprocess

A process in which force is generated within striated muscle tissue, resulting in the shortening of the muscle. Force generation involves a chemo-mechanical energy conversion step that is carried out by the actin/myosin complex activity, which generates force through ATP hydrolysis. Striated muscle is a type of muscle in which the repeating units (sarcomeres) of the contractile myofibrils are arranged in registry throughout the cell, resulting in transverse or oblique striations observable at the level of the light microscope. [GOC:jl, GOC:mtg_muscle, ISBN:0198506732]

Striated muscle contraction is a complex process involving the coordinated interaction of several proteins within the muscle fiber. It begins with a nerve impulse arriving at the neuromuscular junction, triggering the release of acetylcholine. This neurotransmitter binds to receptors on the muscle fiber membrane, initiating a depolarization wave that travels along the sarcolemma and into the T-tubules. This depolarization triggers the release of calcium ions (Ca2+) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, a network of internal membranes within the muscle fiber.

Calcium ions bind to troponin, a protein complex associated with tropomyosin, which in its resting state blocks the myosin binding sites on the actin filaments. Binding of calcium to troponin causes a conformational change in the troponin-tropomyosin complex, exposing the myosin binding sites on the actin filaments. This allows myosin heads, which are already bound to ATP, to bind to the actin filaments.

The binding of myosin to actin triggers the hydrolysis of ATP, releasing energy that is used to move the myosin head, causing it to pivot and pull on the actin filament. This movement is called the power stroke. After the power stroke, another ATP molecule binds to the myosin head, causing it to detach from the actin filament. The cycle of ATP binding, hydrolysis, and myosin detachment continues, resulting in repeated cycles of contraction and relaxation.

The sliding filament theory explains the mechanism of muscle contraction. It states that muscle contraction is caused by the sliding of the thin (actin) filaments past the thick (myosin) filaments within the sarcomere, the basic contractile unit of muscle fibers. This sliding movement is driven by the cyclical interaction of myosin heads with the actin filaments.

As long as calcium ions are present, the cycle of myosin binding, power stroke, and detachment will continue, resulting in sustained muscle contraction. When the nerve impulse ceases, the acetylcholine is rapidly broken down, and calcium ions are actively pumped back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. This removal of calcium ions causes the troponin-tropomyosin complex to return to its resting state, blocking the myosin binding sites on the actin filaments. Without the ability to bind to actin, myosin heads detach, and the muscle relaxes.

This process of muscle contraction and relaxation is highly regulated and relies on a delicate balance of biochemical and electrical events. It is essential for a wide range of functions, including locomotion, breathing, digestion, and maintaining posture.'

clozapineclozapine : A benzodiazepine that is 5H-dibenzo[b,e][1,4]diazepine substituted by a chloro group at position 8 and a 4-methylpiperazin-1-yl group at position 11. It is a second generation antipsychotic used in the treatment of psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia.

Clozapine: A tricylic dibenzodiazepine, classified as an atypical antipsychotic agent. It binds several types of central nervous system receptors, and displays a unique pharmacological profile. Clozapine is a serotonin antagonist, with strong binding to 5-HT 2A/2C receptor subtype. It also displays strong affinity to several dopaminergic receptors, but shows only weak antagonism at the dopamine D2 receptor, a receptor commonly thought to modulate neuroleptic activity. Agranulocytosis is a major adverse effect associated with administration of this agent.
