Sarcolemma


Definition:

  • (10) This result suggests that felodipine may inhibity Ca++ release from intracellular Ca++ stores through a mechanism of Ca++ or inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate induced Ca++ release in addition to a blockade of Ca++ influx through the sarcolemma.
  • (11) An accompanying outward release of protons from localized regions of the sarcolemma (Ca2+ channels?)
  • (12) These confocal microscopic observations suggest that dystrophin may be localized in a nonuniform, discontinuous pattern along the sarcolemma and in some relationship with the underlying myofibrils.

  • (14) These membranes are identified as being of sarcolemmal origin by enrichment of marker activities associated with the sarcolemma (e.g., binding of the ligands PN 200-110, iodocyanopindolol, and ouabain).
  • (15) Thick and thin myofilaments appear first in the cell periphery near the sarcolemma.
  • (16) Kinetic assessment indicated that alpha-agonists led to an increase in the number of electron efflux sites in the ventricular sarcolemma.
  • (17) This exceeded the maximal endogenous concentrations of 3.2(0.6) nmol long chain fatty acylcarnitine per mg sarcolemma protein observed during myocardial ischaemia.
  • (18) Subsarcolemmal S1-decorated actin filaments had mixed polarity and attached to the sarcolemma at one end.
  • (19) This is consistent with the hypothesis that a small net influx of Ca2+ across the sarcolemma during long diastoles was responsible for loading of the reticulum and enhancement of F at low frequencies.
  • (20) Fast twitch fibres of rat and rabbit show rectangular patterns of intramembrane particles in freeze-fracture preparations of the sarcolemma.

Striated


Definition:

  • (imp. & p. p.) of Striate
  • (a.) Marked with striaae, or fine grooves, or lines of color; showing narrow structural bands or lines; as, a striated crystal; striated muscular fiber.

Example Sentences:

  • (2) Striated muscle fibres were found in each of twenty consecutive pineal glands cultured from individual neonatal rats.2.
  • (3) Structural studies indicate that caveolae are decorated on their cytoplasmic surface by a unique array of filaments or strands that form striated coatings.
  • (4) Between the 3rd and 4th week following amputation, the first fully differentiated striated muscle cells appear, and in the 6th week myogenic differentiation extends throughout the regenerate.
  • (5) An enzymatic and immunologic study of 18 patients with trichinosis leads to the following conclusions: The stage of muscular invasion in trichinosis is accompanied by a release of cellular enzymes representative of striated muscle fibres in nearly all the cases.
  • (6) We show that over a limited range of high spatial frequencies this noise takes on a striated appearance, with the striations running perpendicular to the true fringe orientation.
  • (7) We tentatively suggest that a preferential loss of contrast sensitivity to horizontal gratings might be due to a functional abnormality in the striate cortex that relatively spares the extrastriate cortex.
  • (8) When the blind monkey sleeps, the bizarre EEG is replaced by patterns wholly normal in appearance,32 indicating that some nonvisual system has extensive access to striate cortex in this state.
  • (9) In 60 consecutive patients clinically suspected of having chronic pancreatitis the serum concentration of the immunoglobulins (IgA, IgG, IgM), the IgG- and IgA-type non-organ-specific autoantibodies against nuclear material (ANA), smooth and striated muscle, mitochondria, basal membrane, and reticulin, and the IgG- and IgA-type pancreas-specific antibodies against islet cells, acinus cells, and ductal cells (DA) were estimated blindly.
  • (10) Three days following implantation of 2 x 10(5) tumor cells onto the striated skin muscle, capillary sprouts were noted in the tumor cell mass.
