|
name the three dyhydropuritines
|
ditiosin
verapomil nifetopen these are CA+ blockers, that block DHP. We dont care in skeletal muscle but in cardiac muscle it slows down the heart rate. so you can use heart rate as an indicator of work load. |
|
what does DHP do?
|
it is a voltage gated ca channel in a t-tubule. its attached to sarcoplasmic reticulums receptor RYR. it changes shape so CA can come through.
|
|
latent period=
|
time lag between stim, ap in muscle, see a contraction
|
|
quickly give order for cross bridge cycle
|
1. Ap in sarcolemma cause myoplasmic ca to increase
2. CA binds to TN and thin filament changes conformation 3. cycle 4. ca is removed from myoplasm when the stimulus ends, ca dissassociated from tn 5. thin filament returns to original conformation. CA+ regulates everything! |
