|
tropomyosin runs along
|
the groove of the twisted actin strands and functions to block the myosin binding site
|
|
troponin
|
is a globular protein composed of complex of three subunits
|
|
Troponin C
|
binds Ca
|
|
when Ca is bound to troponin C, a conformational change occurs
|
which removes the tropomyosin inhibition of actin myosin interaction
|
|
cardiac action potential is initiated in the
|
myocardial cell membrane and the depolarization spreads to the interior of the cell via the T tubules
|
|
What are the steps of the cardiac action potential
|
1. Ca enters cell during plateau
2. Ca induced Ca release from SR 3. Ca binds to troponin C 4. Cross bridge cycling 5 Tension |
|
Unique feature of the cardiac action potenital is its
|
plateau
|
|
Ca induced Ca released
|
inc in intracellular Ca concentration triggers the release or more Ca from stores in the sarcoplasmic reticulum through Ca release channels
|
|
Relaxation occurs when
|
Ca is reaccumulated in the sarcoplasmic reticulum by Ca ATPase
|
|
Contractility or inotropism is the
|

|
|
Transverse T tubules carry
|
action potentials to the cell interior
|
|
heart muscle contracts via

|
Ca stored in the SR
|
|
circulating acetylcholine during parasympathetic innvervation of the heart muscle decrease
|
contractility on the atria
|
|
acetylcholine decreases the
|
Ca current during the plateau phase of the action potential and
shortens the duration of the action potential |
|
What is the staircase effect
|
heart rate inc then tension increases
|
|
increase in tension causes an inc in
|
the amount of calcium during plateau phase and that is stored in the SR until it is at max storage
|
|
Postextrasystolic potentiation
|
is an extra beat essentially with inc tension. very next beat less than normal tension but the next beat has more than normal tension
|
|
digoxin is a
|
cardiac glycoside
|
|
WHen is digoxin primarily used
|
during CHF to improve ventricular contractility
|
|
Digoxin has a
|
positive inotropic agent
inhibits Na-K ATPase pump which in turn inhibits the movement of Ca OUT OF THE CELL so if intracellular calcium inc and tension is diretly proportional to the amount of intracellular ca |
|
Stimulation of PNS has a
|
negative inotropic effect on the atria
|
|
The neg inotropic effect is mediated via the
|
muscarinic receptors
|
|
caridac glycosides are a class of drugs that act as
|
positive inotropic agents
|
|
when the Na K ATPase is inhibited less Na is pumped out of the cell inc
|
intracellular Na concentration
|
|
What is the Frank Starling principle?
|
If preload is inc the ventricular fiber length is also inc, resulting in an inc tension of the muscle
|
|
CO is directly related to
|
preload (per FS law)
Greater stretch=greater contraction |
|
Preload is the
|
left ventricular diastolic volume...resting length from which the muscle contracts
|
|
After load for the left ventricle is the
|
aortic pressure
|
|
Stroke volume is the
|
volume of blood ejected by the ventricle on each beat
|
|
EF is the
|
feaction of the end diastolic volume ejected in each stroke volume
|

stroke volume/end diastolic volume
|
|
volume work is
|
cardiac output
|

out of the capillary
|
|
absorption is movement
|
into the capillary
|
|

|
water permeability of the capillary wall
|
|
capillary hydrostatic pressure
|
favors filtration out of the capillary.
Highest at arteriolar capillary end and lowest at venous end |
|
interstitial hydrostatic pressure
|
opposes filtration. should be zero
|
|
capillary oncotic pressure.
|
opposesfiltration. determined by protein concentration so inc in protein concentration causes a dec in filtration
|
|
interstitial oncotic pressure is determined by
|
interstiltial protein concentration so proteins are usually not in interstitial fluid so this value is low
|
|
myogenic hypothesis
|
vascular smooth muscle stretches it contracts. arterial pressure inc leads arteriole stretch and smooth muscle contraction and constriction
|
|
LaPlace
|
contracts to return the wall tension of the arterioles back to normal after being stretched
|
|
Active hyperemia
|
blood flow is proportional to its activity. if skeletal muscle is exercised it will get more flow
|
|
reactive hyperemia
|
inc in flow in reaction to a previous decrease. repaying oxygen debt from an occulsion
|
|
metabolic hypothesis
|
O2 delivery to a tissue can be matched to the oxygen consumption of the tissue by altering the resistance of the arterioles
|
|
hormonal control involves vasoactive substance:
|
histamine, bradykinin, serotonin, prostaglandins
|
|
histamine and bradykinin are
|
vasodilators that inc filtration out of the capillaries and produce local edema

|
Na+K+ ATPase pump and increase contractility or the pumping action. We use this in CHF patients and these are medications like digoxin.
|
|
C. Mechanisms in our body that help control pH are
|
a. Buffering of H+ in the ECF and ICF
b. Respiratory compensation c. Renal compensation |
|
most important extracellular buffer is
|
HCO3/CO2
|
|
a. Two types of acid are produced
|
volatitle and fixed
|
|
Arterial pH is slightly alkalotic at
|
7.4
|
|
CO2 is a
|
volatile acid and is the byproduct of aerobic metabolism
|
|
together with water CO2 makes
|
carbonic acid via the enzyme carbonic hydrase
|
|
Proteins generate fixed acid in the form of sulfuric acid and phospholipids generate
|
fixed acid in the form of phosphoric acid
|
|
CO2 is called volatile because
|
it will be excreted by the lungs. the fixed acids will need to be buffered until the acids can be excretedy by the kidneys.
|
|
Fixed acids can also be as a result of
|
pathophysiological processes id DM, ASA OD, strenuous exercise
|
|
A buffered soln will only have a minimally changed pH if
|
the hydrogen concetration changes
|
|
acidemia stimulated chemoreceptors in the carotid bodies that produce
|
immediate inc in the ventilation rate
|
|
The most significant intracellular buffer is
|
hemoglobin
|
|
HCO3 /CO2 is
|
the body's first line of defense when hydrogen is gained or lost in the body
|
|
inorganic phosphate
|
also serves as a buffer
|
|
To utilize ICF buffers in the acid/base disturbances,
|
H+ first must cross the cell membrane by
1. CO2 itself can cross the cell membranes... Co2 rapidly enters the cells, and the H it generates is buffered |
|
2 way H can cross the cell membrane
|
H+ can enter or leave the cell with an organic anion such as lactate
|
|
3 way H can cross
|
H exchanges with K to preserve electroneutralitiy
|
|
In acidemia there is an excess of H in the blood. because more H is bound to plasma proteins,
|
less Ca is bound producing free Ca
|
|
in alkalemia, there is a deficit of H in the blood. because less H is bound to plasma proteins, more Ca is bound
|
producing a decrease in free Ca concentration
|
|
In respiratory alkalosis symptoms of
|
hypocalcemia occus....tingling, numbness and tetany
|
|
the pK of oxyhemoglovin is
|
6.7, which is in the range for effective physiologic buffering
|
|
First part of renal buffering
|
reabsorption of HCO3...an imortant ECF buffer so we dont want it to be Excreted in urine
|
|
Second part of renal buffering
|
excretion of H+ via a titratble acid or as NH4
|
|
The synthesis of new bicarbonate is also important in the ecretion of hydrogen because
|
it replenishes the stores that were used to buffer H+ in the first place
|
|
What part of the kidney reabsorbs most of the bicarbonate?
|
proximal tubule
|
|
Titratable acid is excreted as H+ with
|
urinary buffers throughout the nephron
|
|
the first mechanism for H+ secretion is
|
H ATPase, stimulated by aldosterone.
