CARDIAC MUSCLE
• ATRIAL MUSCLE
• VENTRICULAR MUSCLE
• SPECIALISES EXCITATORY &CONDUCTIVE MUSCLE FIBERS

Cardiac Muscle Fibers
• Interconnected by intercalated discs and form functional syncytia
• Within intercalated discs – two kinds of membrane junctions– Desmosomes– Gap junctions

Electrical Activity of Heart
• Heart beats rhythmically as result of action potentials it generates by itself (Autorhythmicity)
• Two specialized types of cardiac muscle cells– Contractile cells
• 99% of cardiac muscle cells• Do mechanical work of pumping• Normally do not initiate own action potentials
– Autorhythmic cells• Do not contract• Specialized for initiating and conducting action potentials
responsible for contraction of working cells

Electrical Activity of Heart
• Ca2+ entry through L-type channels in T tubules triggers larger release of Ca2+ from sarcoplasmic reticulum– Ca2+ induced Ca2+ release leads to cross-bridge
cycling and contraction

Ventricular action potential

Electrical Activity of Heart
• Because long refractory period occurs in conjunction with prolonged plateau phase, summation and tetanus of cardiac muscle is impossible– Ensures alternate periods of contraction and
relaxation which are essential for pumping blood
