Purkynĕ's (Purkinje's) muscle fibres in the heart.
Jan Evangelista Purkyne (1787-1869) died 100 years ago. He was mourned by the entire Czech nation in whose cultural renaissance he had played a prominent part, and by many leading European physiologists and histologists who had sat at his feet and had been inspired by him. The unfamiliar but correct spelling "Purkyne" pronounced "Poorkeynie" must be explained. According to John, Purkyn6's nain ...
متن کاملChallenges to temperature regulation when working in hot environments.
The focus of this review is upon acute exposure to hot environments and the accompanying physiological changes. The target audience includes physiologists, physicians and occupational health and safety practitioners. Using the principles of thermodynamics, the avenues for human heat exchange are explored, leading to an evaluation of some methods used to assess thermally-stressful environments. ...
متن کاملStereological Analysis of Mammalian Skeletal Muscle
A quantitative analysis of the volumes, surface areas, and dimensions of the ultrastructural components in the soleus muscle fibers of the guinea pig was made by using point counting methods of stereology. Muscle fibers have structural orientation (anisotropy) and have spatial gradients of the structures within the fiber; therefore the standard stereological methods were modified where necessar...
متن کاملMuscle fibres in children's stools.
The examination of stools for the presence of undigested fragments of muscle seems to be a reasonable approach to studies of defective digestion. Procedures such as Schmidt's breakfast were at one time familiar clinical practice, but now such methods are rarely considered. This is not surprising, as the literature contains generalizations and indefinite statements; for example, 'The undue prese...
متن کاملSpontaneous waves in muscle fibres
Mechanical oscillations are important for many cellular processes, e.g., the beating of cilia and flagella or the sensation of sound by hair cells. These dynamic states originate from spontaneous oscillations of molecular motors. A particularly clear example of such oscillations has been observed in muscle fibers under non-physiological conditions. In that case, motor oscillations lead to contr...
