I. Histology. General-morphologically, the tissue of contractile substance is characterized by the presence of differentiation in the protoplasm of its elements into a specific fibrous structure; the latter are spatially oriented in the direction of their contraction and constitute the morphological substrate of the specific contractile function of M. Arranged parallel to each other, the visible elements of this structure, the so-called myofibrils, appear in the form of the thinnest (up to 0.2μ in diameter) threads, distinguished by their characteristic property of true positive uniaxial anisotropy. Depending on whether the myofibrils are optically homogeneous or constructed from alternating fragments of optically heterogeneous substance along their length, two main types of muscle tissue are distinguished: smooth muscles and striated muscle tissue. 1. The morphological and functional unit of smooth muscle tissue is the smooth muscle fiber (cell-fiber)—an elongated (in vertebrates), spindle-shaped, somewhat flattened along its long axis, single-nucleated formation, averaging 100-200μ in length and 4-6μ in width (extreme dimensions 240-500μ in length, 4-13μ in width). Fibers are encountered that are forked at one or both ends. The elongated, so-called "rod-shaped" nucleus is located somewhat eccentrically in the middle of the cell length. The protoplasm of the cell-fiber appears delicately striated due to the presence of the thinnest homogeneous myofibrils arranged parallel to the long cellular axis. The nucleus is surrounded by a certain amount of sarcoplasm (protoplasm not differentiated into fibrils), accumulating at its poles and forming the thinnest layers between the bundles of fibrils; in it are found the "cell center" located near the nucleus, and chondriosomes scattered throughout the cellular body. In the composition of the tissue complex, the elements of smooth muscle are connected to each other by fibers, the so-called myoglia, having the characteristic of "reticular" fibers of connective tissue, sometimes taking on a collagenous type and forming net-like sheaths on the surface of each muscle cell. Architectonically, the smooth muscles of man appear either in the form of thin, individual bundles embedded in connective tissue or in the form of continuous contractile membranes, and in the latter case, the fibers in the composition of the muscular plate are either arranged parallel to each other or form net-like interweavings of muscle bundles. Functionally, smooth muscle tissue in man constitutes the so-called involuntary musculature of the internal organs, vascular system, and skin covering and is always innervated directly by the peripheral neuron of the autonomic nervous system. 2. Striated muscle tissue is optically heterogeneous due to the structure of the myofibrils that make it up; it is represented in the vertebrate organism either by morphologically individualized entities (skeletal musculature) or by a syncytially connected system of muscular crossbars (type of cardiac muscle). The structural unit of "skeletal" musculature is the so-called striated muscle fiber, a multi-nucleated, strongly elongated cylindrical formation with pointed or rounded ends. The average size of the fiber in man is from 4 to 8 cm in length with a diameter of 40 to 50μ (the smallest observed length - 2 mm, the largest - about 12.7 cm, the smallest diameter - 9μ, the largest - 150μ). The myofibrils in the composition of the fiber are arranged in the form of columns separated by larger or smaller amounts of sarcoplasm, which on its cross-sections give the picture of the so-called fields of Köigheim. The numerous nuclei are distributed along the entire length of the muscular element; they are located in the peripheral, sub-sheath layer of the fiber in mammals with poor sarcoplasm. The entire fiber is clothed in the sarcolemma, a shell formerly homologized with cell membranes but now recognized as a connective tissue formation; it is intimately connected on one side with the substance of the muscle fiber through the fibers that make it up and on the other side with the tissue of the perimysium (perimysium). The characteristic transverse striation observed in microscopic examination of the striated muscle fiber is due on one hand to the heterogeneity of the optical structure of its myofibrils and on the other to the presence of transverse, crossing the entire fiber, thinnest membranes (intercalated discs). Located along the length of the muscle fiber at strictly the same levels, the isotropic and anisotropic areas of neighboring myofibrils give the optical phenomenon of alternating, parallel to each other light and dark stripes, as if cutting across the entire fiber in the transverse direction (the so-called discs); this picture is further complicated by the lines of optical sections of the intercalated discs, which also cross the muscular element transversely at certain intervals of its length. Alternating at a certain area of the muscle fiber, the discs form the so-called muscle segments, characterized by the same sequence of discs making up each of them. Scheme of transverse striation within one segment. The boundary between two adjacent segments is considered to be the intercalated disc crossing the fiber between two isotropic discs, connected at its periphery with the sarcolemma (disc Z of modern nomenclature, telophragma of Heidenhain, thin dark disc of French authors, stripe of Amici-Krause of old nomenclature); adjacent to it is an isotropic disc (I of modern nomenclature, light disc of French authors); followed by a wide anisotropic disc (A of modern nomenclature, thick dark disc of French authors). In ordinary transmitted light in a stretched fiber, the middle part of A appears lighter, forming a light stripe (h of modern nomenclature, stripe of Hensen), crossed in the middle by the thinnest intercalated disc M (mesophragma of Heidenhain, stripe of Merkel); then comes another isotropic disc I and finally the segment is closed by the next intercalated disc Z. Thus, in letter expression the scheme has the form: z + i + (h + A + M) + h + i + z. Appearing as a solid disc in polarized light, A possesses true positive anisotropy, while the anisotropy of Z is explained by the phenomenon of so-called depolarization. The fibrous discs A and I, besides their metamicroscopic structure, differ in their ability to absorb light, density and probably chemical composition. The properties of the mesophragma M are almost unknown: this disc is little accessible to observation and is clearly visible only on fixed preparations of maximally contracted fiber. The average height of the entire segment in vertebrates is about 2.5μ. The sarcoplasm of the striated muscle fiber is characterized by the presence in it of granular formations of different morphological value: along with true sarcosomes, representing the chondrioma of the fiber and properly arranged between the fibrils at the levels of disc I (in A - grains), here are also encountered droplets of lipoids and lumps of glycogen. Interesting are the argentophilic transverse networks of fibers discovered by Veratti, located at the level of discs I on both sides of Z and possibly identical with the trophospongium of Holmgren. In the composition of the muscular complex, the "muscle," the striated muscle fibers are connected by means of the fibrous connective tissue of the perimysium, the fibers of which pass into the fibrous framework of the sarcolemma. The question of the connection of fibers with the corresponding tendon is currently under discussion: while according to the opinion prevailing in modern literature this connection is entirely carried out through the fibers of the perimysium, a number of researchers insist on the presence of a direct transition of myofibrils in the area of the tendon end of the muscle fiber into the collagenous fibers of the tendon, bundles. Unlike skeletal musculature, striated cardiac muscle is characterized by a) the syncytial arrangement of the muscular crossbars making it up, b) the axial arrangement of nuclei in connection with the accumulation of sarcoplasm in the axial region of these crossbars and c) the presence of special stripes crossing these at indefinite distances, the so-called "insertion regions"; the morphological and functional significance of the latter is still controversial. Previously homologized with cell boundaries, these formations are now considered either as growth points of the cardiac muscle syncytium or are given the significance of microscopic intermediate tendons, serving as a support point during the contraction of the latter. Literary data on the morphology of contraction of striated M. up to the present time are extremely incomplete and contradictory: it can be considered generally accepted that the morphological substrate of contraction is precisely the myofibrils, but even the question of which of the myofibrillar discs the shortening of each myofibril predominantly occurs from is a subject of discussion. Also not finally clarified is the morphological significance and the so-called
«striations of contraction» (CS in modern nomenclature), observed on fixed preparations of maximally contracted striated muscle fiber instead of its normal striation.-Due to the above, modern theories of muscle contraction have long been constructed without a close connection with the morphological data of the finest microstructure of muscle tissue. All these theories, starting from Engelmann's, recognize the direct cause of the shortening of the fibrils as the property of the colloidal protein gel (in this case the substance of the muscle fibrils) to change its external form under the influence of energy changes in the surrounding environment (resp. sarcoplasm). These changes, according to the generally accepted view, are in turn due to chemical processes occurring in the muscle fiber at the moment of its excitation. The mechanism of this change in shape of the contractile fibrils is explained either 1) by an increase in the osmotic tension of their substance depending on the appearance at the moment of excitation of new products of decomposition (the so-called osmotic theories of McDougall and Tsunz), or 2) by a change in surface tension at the surfaces separating the fibrils and sarcoplasm (the theory of d'Arsonval-Bernstein), or finally 3) by the swelling of the anisotropic substance of the muscle fibrils when hydration of the proteins composing it occurs at the moment of contraction (the theory of Engelmann, Pauly, Fürth). This swelling should occur either at the expense of water coming from the isotropic fibrillar sections (Engelmann), or from the surrounding sarcoplasm, or at the expense of the water of the anisotropic sections themselves; the latter in this case must be composed of ultramicroscopic ellipsoidal granules suspended in a liquid medium; their long diameter is parallel to the direction of contraction. Engelmann explained the changes in the hydration capacity of the protein gel by the influence of the significant increase in temperature of the muscle fiber observed during contraction, which is the result of the oxidative processes occurring at the moment of excitation. - In contrast to Engelmann's «thermodynamic» theory, modern «chemodynamic» theories of muscle contraction accept this hydration as the result of the change in the reaction of the substance of the muscle element occurring at the moment of excitation. At the same time, according to Fürth and Pauly (see also the data of Meyerhof and Embden), the moment that resolves contraction is the appearance of acidic products of decomposition in the muscle; Embden, however, believes that here, on the contrary, alkaline products play a role.-Carefully conducted Hill's observations on the course of heat production in striated M. in various stages of its activity refute the classical theory of Engelmann; in connection with the latest research of Meyerhof and Embden, Hill's experiments provide the basis for «chemodynamic» theories. Functionally, the striated musculature of vertebrates is as a rule the musculature of voluntary movement and is innervated by the motor neuron of the cerebrospinal nervous system. The automatically working cardiac muscle is innervated according to the type of smooth muscle tissue.
A. Mislavsky. II. Physiology. Functions of M. The main function of M. is to bring about movement and mutual displacement of individual links and parts of the body. The basis of these movements lies in the processes of M. contraction, with which it is most convenient to begin the study of the physiology of muscular activity. M. can be made to contract by acting on it with various agents: mechanical influences, chemical reagents, heat, and finally electric current. In experiments with muscle, it is desirable to take as a stimulus a factor that 1) would not damage the M., 2) would act immediately on the M., 3) could be dosed, and 4) the action of which could be quickly started and stopped. Mechanical action is usually accompanied by damage to the superficial fibers. This, however, can be avoided if the M. is stimulated through its nerve (indirect stimulation). In this case, a small device called a tetanomotor is used, consisting of an electromagnet and a movable armature that is set into vibrational trembling, transmitted in the form of light blows to the motor nerve of the muscle. Thermal action on the muscle can be carried out by quickly changing the t° of the M.; this is usually accompanied by some damage to the M. Chemical stimulation (acids, citrates and oxalates of sodium, alcohol, chloroform) primarily affects (and this is understandable) the superficial fibers. The most convenient and satisfying all the above requirements is stimulation with the help of induction current. The source of the latter is usually the so-called Dubois-Reymond induction apparatus (see Dubois-Reymond induction apparatus), in which it is possible to change the voltage of the induction current by shifting and separating the primary and secondary coils. This type of current, in contrast to direct current, does not cause polarization. To study muscle contractions, the M. is placed in a so-called myograph. The frog's gastrocnemius muscle (m. gastrocnemius) is fixed immovably in its upper part. When the M. contracts, its lower end (Achilles tendon) raises a lever, which is equipped with a feather that writes on a smoked kymograph tape. Since the muscular pull acts on the short arm of a second-class lever, while the recording is made with the long arm, the myograms are obtained as many times larger than the actual contractions as the long arm is longer than the short one. A very weak electric shock is unable to cause muscle contraction. The moment when the muscle first contracts is called the threshold of excitation. With further strengthening of the stimulating current, the single contractions of the muscle also increase, but this increase occurs only up to a certain maximum limit, upon reaching which the contractions of the M. no longer increase. Between the moment the M. receives a single stimulus and the moment the contraction begins, a certain period of time passes, which for the frog's M. averages 0.01 seconds and is called by Helmholtz the period of latent excitation, or the latent period. The phases of contraction and relaxation usually last 0.05 seconds each. In the case where the M. is fatigued, the total time of a single muscle contraction increases mainly due to the lengthening of the relaxation phase. A stimulus that falls on the muscle before the latter has had time to return to a state of relaxation gives rise to so-called summation of muscle contractions. With sufficiently frequent stimulation, the M. does not have time to relax and comes into a state of prolonged, so-called tetanic contraction, or tetanus (Helmholtz). The longer a single contraction of the M. lasts in a given species of animal, the lower the frequency of stimulation required to produce tetanus; with short single contractions of the M., even very frequent stimulation may only cause single muscle contractions, but not produce tetanus. Thus, the frog's gastrocnemius muscle comes into a state of tetanic contraction already with 20 shocks of induction current per second (the duration of its single contraction is 0.1 seconds), while the wing muscles of insects do not produce tetanus even with 200 stimulations per second (the duration of single contraction is 0.003-0.040 seconds). The Russian scientist N. E. Vvedensky proposed his own theory to explain deviations in the magnitude of tetanus, calculated as the result of simple superposition (summation) of identical muscle contractions. According to Vvedensky, there exist optimal rates (frequencies) and strengths of stimulation that give maximum tetanic contraction. In these cases, the stimulation not only causes a single contraction but also increases the excitability of the muscle tissue to subsequent stimuli, as a result of which the tetanus turns out to be greater than in the case where all contractions would be completely identical. Excessively strong or excessively frequent stimulation—the pessimum (see)—gives a smaller effect than stimulation that is weaker or less frequent—optimal. The cardiac M., as is known, does not produce tetanic contraction but can only contract rhythmically. The latter is due to the presence in it of the so-called refractory phase, when the cardiac muscle becomes inexcitable, unresponsive to stimuli falling on it. Questions related to the reaction of the muscle to one and two subminimal, i.e., below the threshold of excitation, and supramaximal stimulations have been studied in detail by Vvedensky and his students (see Parabiosis, Pessimum). A subthreshold stimulus to the M. is unable to cause its contraction, but as we saw above, it can increase the excitability of the muscle and with a certain frequency of such stimuli cause maximum contraction. Two successive maximal stimuli give completely different effects depending on the duration of the interval between them. With a large or small interval, the amplitude of contraction is very large; with a very small interval (e.g., one-thousandth of a second), two maximal stimuli act as one supramaximal stimulus, and the contraction obtained is not larger but, on the contrary, smaller (stage of parabiosis). Wave of contraction. When a muscle that has been acted upon by curare poison is stimulated, its contraction is not observed immediately along its entire length, but first at one point—the point of application of the stimulus (with indirect stimulation through the motor nerve—at the location of the nerve's end plates). The contraction of the M. from this point occurs immediately in both directions, towards both its ends. The speed of this wave of contraction (Kontraktionswelle) in different animals, according to the research of Bernstein and Hermann, proved to be different: in the frog about 3 m/sec., in the rabbit 5-10 m/sec., in humans 10-15 m/sec. For smooth M., the speed of propagation of the excitation wave is less than for striated muscles. Law of average load and pace. Mechanical work is expressed, as is known, by the product of force and distance. In the case of lifting a load, instead of force we can put the weight of the load. Naturally, the question arises about the dependence that exists between the weight of the load being lifted and the mechanical work done in this process. This dependence can be easily found if one takes a nerve-muscle preparation or the M. of a frog without a nerve and records the heights of load lifting with different loads. Such experiments have been performed many times and have become classical; they showed that with an increase in load, mechanical work increases, but only up to a certain limit; upon reaching it, it begins to decrease and at a certain maximum load falls to zero. Mechanical work is expressed in gram-centimeters (g/cm) or kilogram-meters (kg/m). This dependence is usually called the law of average load. A similar dependence can also be found with respect to the pace (speed) of work. At a certain average pace, mechanical work is greatest. These two dependencies cannot be applied indiscriminately and uncritically to the whole organism, where the connection of the M. with the circulatory system ensures the supply of oxygen to the muscle tissue and the removal of certain substances formed as a result of muscular work. The participation of the nervous system in muscle contractions also changes the process of muscular work so much compared to the contractions of a nerve-muscle preparation that the dependencies observed on the latter are significantly complicated. This is especially true with respect to the law of average speed (pace). Fatigue of M. Under the influence of prolonged work, a series of changes usually designated as fatigue occurs in the M. in a state of functioning. This term is one of the most indefinite and imprecise in physiological terminology, and under it different authors understand far from the same thing (see Fatigue). In its simplest form, the phenomena of fatigue are manifested in the work of an isolated muscle, periodically stimulated by induction electric current (stimuli of maximum strength). At the beginning, the contractions of the M. hardly change in height, and then the decrease becomes noticeable and progressively increases until finally the muscle completely stops contracting. The more the M. is loaded and the more frequent the stimulations, the sooner its fatigue sets in. The total duration of contraction during fatigue increases mainly due to the lengthening in time of the relaxation phase.
A very fatigued M. may not even give complete relaxation (residual contraction or contracture). Along with slowing down the entire process of contraction, the speed of the contraction wave also decreases. During fatigue, the contraction wave may even stop at the site of irritation, and a so-called idiomydullary bulge forms here. Finally, during fatigue, the strength of the M. decreases and the threshold of irritation increases. A muscle that has reached a state of complete fatigue and does not react to any irritation can, even outside the organism, again return to a working state, albeit to a very incomplete degree. This phenomenon still has no scientific explanation. An M. connected to the circulatory system of the organism, and even better, an M. not removed from its place and retaining all its nerve and vascular connections, resists fatigue much longer than an isolated M. At present, physiology is dominated by a very primitive concept of fatigue, reducing almost all phenomena to the accumulation in the tissues of the working muscle of some 'fatigue substances.' When the connection with the vascular system is preserved, these substances are supposedly quickly washed out of the fatigued M., and it again acquires working capacity. In an isolated M., there is no washing out, and the hypothetical substances are oxidized by oxygen diffusing into the M. from the air. Of course, the phenomena of muscle fatigue are much more complex than many modern scientists imagine. There are many reasons to believe that fatigue is associated with colloid-chemical processes and occurs with the direct participation of the autonomic and cerebral nervous systems. If even the phenomena of fatigue in a single M. have not yet been scientifically explained, it is clear that the much more complex process of fatigue of the entire organism is far from its scientific interpretation. The fatigue of human M. is usually studied with the help of an ergograph (see Ergography). The weight lifted and lowered due to flexions and extensions of the finger or hand can vary in weight. The tempo can also vary. By selecting different values for both, one can find on the work of the finger the same laws of average tempo and load that were considered for the isolated M., but from this one by no means can make broad generalizations concerning the entire organism. Ergograms are individual in nature: in some, the decrease in amplitude occurs slowly, in others, on the contrary, almost immediately after the start of work. One should not think that ergograms reflect only the fatigue of the working finger muscle; despite fixing the forearm, the work of lifting the load is not limited to the participation of only finger flexors, but as fatigue sets in, more and more new muscles are involved in the work. The ergograph is often used to assess a person's work capacity, and attempts have even been made to apply it in production. Such attempts must be approached with great caution. The magnitude of work capacity in professional labor is determined by a number of factors, including psychological factors (interest in work, competition, shock work). That is precisely what labor differs from work, as it is a bio-social phenomenon. When assigning a worker work on an ergograph, the researcher excludes this moment and studies the work capacity of the subject not in relation to the professional labor performed by the subject, but in relation to the uninteresting and meaningless work of lifting a load with a finger or hand. The total amount of energy released by the M. strictly corresponds to the work performed by it. This has recently been proven by precise experiments of Hill's students {Hill}-Azuma and Fenn. Meyerhof, Embden, and their students established that most of the broken down hexosephosphoric acid is restored again in the relaxation stage of the M. In a fatigued state, resynthesis processes occur half as energetically as in a fresh state, and the M. loses much valuable energy-source substance. It has been proven that the smaller the part of the original substances is finally burned in the M., the higher its efficiency. Hill compares the M. with a self-charging battery after each partial discharge. Elsewhere, he draws an analogy between the M., in which hexosephosphoric acid breaks down into lactic and phosphoric acids and then resynthesizes again, and a self-charging spring. M. as a receptor. Usually, M. is considered as an organ of movement and the other role of M.-the role of a receptor apparatus-is pushed into the background. Inside muscle tissue, and especially in muscle tendons, there is a huge number of nerve endings signaling the central nervous system about the degree of tension of the M. and consequently about the position of the body's links at various moments of movement, about the direction and speed of the latter. M. thus is an organ with a dual role-receptive and effector. Since the impulses going centripetally from the endings in the M. give information about the internal state of the organism and its parts, the English physiologist C. Sherrington called these endings proprioceptive. However, objections are raised against this term, since in a number of cases, receptor endings give an idea of the properties of objects of the external world. For example, a person holding a stone in an outstretched hand and thus evaluating its weight undoubtedly uses for this data on the degree of contraction of his muscles, data obtained from proprioceptive elements. Long before Sherrington, the famous Russian physiologist I. M. Sechenov gave another name to the sensations we receive from our muscles. He called these sensations 'dark muscle feeling,' thereby emphasizing the difference between them and sensations received from the sense organs. M. and its relationship to the nervous system. As is known, M. is part of the reflex arc. Numerous experimental studies have shown that M. of some animals can sometimes function without the participation of the nervous system and that apparently the early link of the reflex arc was precisely the M., and then in the order of phylogenetic development, the M. caused the appearance and improvement of sense organs and the central nervous system (Samoylov). M. gave rise to the central nervous system, this most complex formation that we know, and then in the process of evolution this system began to perform a number of new independent functions; M., however, moved to the role of an executive organ. According to the views of I. M. Sechenov, M. was precisely that formation that essentially influenced the function of some sense organs. If the human ear can evaluate the duration of different sounds, it is completely unable to evaluate the duration of pauses-silent intervals of time. The latter could be accomplished, according to Sechenov's thought, only if the pauses were filled with muscle feeling with its characteristic tenseness. This circumstance actually occurs in walking. 'In view of the fact that each placement of the foot on the ground is accompanied by a sound, walking at various speeds is for consciousness a periodic series of short sounds, the intervals of which are filled with tensile elements of muscle feeling. Here therefore is the school in which hearing could learn to evaluate the different duration of intervals within the limits of acceleration or deceleration of the step in walking' (Sechenov, 'Elements of Thought'). On the other hand, the evaluation of distances with the help of the eye is also accomplished thanks to muscle feeling. The complex of impulses coming from the endings embedded in the six muscles of the eye to the brain gives us a much more complete idea of the shape of objects, their distance from us and from each other, of the direction, character, and speed of their movements than in the case of a stationary eye. As a result of a series of ingenious examples and constructions, I. M. Sechenov comes to the conclusion that muscle feeling was and is an analyzer of time and space. Muscular work. There is no professional work in which one muscle or an isolated group of muscles participates. As a rule, many muscles participate in work, and the longer the work is performed and fatigue progresses, the greater the number of muscles is involved in it. Part of the musculature performs the function of fixing various joints or parts of the body in a given position, another part directly participates in the work. Tension of the M., not accompanied by further approximation of its ends and the body parts to which it is attached by means of tendons, we conventionally call static work. This term, rooted in physiology, is incorrect from a physical point of view, since mechanical work presupposes the presence of some displacement caused by the action of a force applied to the body. The term 'static,' however, indicates precisely the absence of movement. However, since this name for the isometric tension of the M. when holding a load, fixing body parts, etc. has not been replaced by another more rational one, it has to be preserved and used.
The activity of muscles, the ends of which move the links of our body and objects connected with them (tools, loads), relates to dynamic work. The organism as a whole does not remain indifferent to the activity of its own musculature. The main factor in this regard is the increasing need of active muscles for nutrients and, first of all, for oxygen. Usually any more or less significant muscular work is accompanied by a general increase in blood pressure in the cardiovascular system, a redistribution of blood in the body in the sense of a greater supply to its active musculature, and an expansion and increase in the number of capillaries in the working muscles. According to the data of A. Krogh, the number of open capillaries in 1 mm3 of the cross-section of a working muscle increases 10-100 times compared to the resting state, and the total surface area of the capillary network in 1 liter of muscle tissue increases 12-130 times. There is an assumption that the local expansion of blood vessels in working muscles is caused by an increase in the active reaction in the muscles. Atzler and Lehmann found that the pH in a working muscle decreases by 0.2 and that even such a weak acid as carbonic acid can cause vasodilation. The latter leads immediately to two consequences: an increase in the inflow of blood and an increase in the outflow of venous blood and lymph. As for the redistribution of blood in the body, it occurs by narrowing the lumen of the vessels of internal organs and a corresponding expansion of the vessels of active muscles. Weber, and after him Lehmann, showed that the blood filling of muscle groups increases even before the start of work, already at the mere thought of possible work. Static work, in contrast to dynamic work, is characterized precisely by the fact that the vessels of isometrically tense muscles are compressed by the muscles themselves; the blood supply to muscle tissue during static work is much worse than during dynamic work, in which the contractions of the muscles are rhythmically replaced by their relaxations. Possibly, this is the reason for the greater fatigue of muscles during static work. Poor blood supply, difficult washing out of metabolic products from tense muscles, and with fixation of the chest cavity, disruption of respiration and blood circulation in the whole organism—this is what characterizes static work as a rule. The increase in pressure in the arterial system during muscular work is due, on the one hand, to the difficulty from time to time in the outflow of blood through active muscles, and on the other hand, to the increased frequency of heart contractions and the increased capacity of individual systoles. This pressure (maximum) can reach very high values (up to 200 mm and higher). Therefore, in developed arteriosclerosis, muscular work is contraindicated. The following table gives an idea of the dependence between the power (intensity) of work and the volume of blood ejected by the heart per minute: Dependence between power of work and minute volume. State of organism Power of work (in kgm/min) Minute volume of blood (in liters) Rest ......

During dynamic work, the increased excursions of the chest cavity promote the inflow of venous blood from the hollow veins into the right atrium, as intrathoracic pressure decreases at this time. Due to the more vigorous activity of the heart, blood passes more forcefully through the capillary network and enters the venous system under greater pressure. Finally, the contractions of the leg muscles squeeze blood from the veins toward the heart (venous valves do not let it back), and thanks to all these factors, the blood filling of the right heart during diastole increases significantly. This circumstance, according to E. Starling's well-known 'law of the heart', leads to an increase in the volume of systole and leads to an increased supply of blood and oxygen to active muscles. A different situation occurs during static work. A fixed chest cavity (when lifting or carrying heavy loads, when moving handcarts, wheelbarrows, carts, etc.) prevents the inflow of blood from the venous system into the right heart due to the high air pressure created in it. If, in addition, the huge muscle masses—the legs—are in a state of tension, then the conditions for blood movement through the veins of the legs upward to the heart become very difficult. All this leads to stagnation of blood in the legs (profuse dilation of the cutaneous veins) and (during the static work itself) in the veins of the face and head. The harmful effect of static work on the body has been emphasized many times by many researchers, and there is no doubt that the most important factor here was the disorders in blood circulation. The effect of muscular work on the respiratory activity of a person is enormous. Even with slight muscle work, breathing becomes more frequent and uneven. Without touching the question of what exactly in this case is the excitant of the respiratory center—carbonic, lactic, or other acids formed during muscle work—it is necessary to note that there is a certain and (within certain limits) linear dependence between the power of the work performed and the magnitude of pulmonary ventilation, as shown in the following table (compiled according to Boothby's data). Dependence of pulmonary ventilation on power of work.

The research of Hill and other physiologists and biochemists has established a number of extremely interesting facts relating to the role of lactic acid in the process of respiration. As is known, the organism after more or less difficult work does not immediately return to its normal resting state. Pulmonary ventilation and the amount of O2 absorbed are increased, and the ratio of CO2: O2 in the exhaled air, or the so-called respiratory coefficient (RQ), also remains increased for some time, indicating the predominant combustion of carbohydrates. Chemical analysis of the blood during this period (the recovery, or reparative period) shows a greater content of lactic acid than at rest. By the end of the recovery period, pulmonary ventilation and the volume of oxygen absorbed return to normal. The same happens with RQ and the content of lactic acid. Barry-Himwich established that in the recovery period in the tissues of non-working muscles, the lactic acid released into the blood is oxidized. Having compared a number of experimentally established facts, Hill and his colleagues came to the conclusion that the excess oxygen absorbed in the recovery period goes to the oxidation of part (approximately 1/4-1/3) of the lactic acid; the other, larger part, as mentioned above, is resynthesized into hexosephosphoric acid. The CO2 formed as a result of the oxidation of lactic acid is not completely released with the exhaled air, but combines with the alkali of the blood that has just been freed from lactic acid. Consequently, during work, the lactic acid entering the blood in excess binds part of the alkali and thereby forces a larger amount of CO2 to be released with the exhaled air than is formed at each given moment. Conversely, during the recovery period, the disappearance of lactic acid from the blood due to its oxidation and resynthesis leads to less release of CO2 into the air ('retained' carbonic acid). All this, of course, affects the fluctuations of the respiratory coefficient. The release of lactic acid into the blood during heavy muscular work is of enormous importance, and without it a person could not perform any significant muscular work. For each organism there is a certain limit for oxygen absorption; if the work is light, then the 'oxygen requirement' (or Oxygen requirement in Hill's terminology) is below this limit and the organism easily copes with the work. Approximately the same thing happens if the need is very close to the limit. In the third case, however, when the oxygen requirement exceeds this limit, 'oxygen intake' turns out to be insufficient, and a certain 'oxygen debt' is formed, which is repaid with the help of the release of lactic acid into the blood only during the recovery period. After heavy work, as is known, oxygen absorption remains elevated for a long time. The changes occurring in the organism during muscular work have been studied very little, but even what is known now allows us to think of the significant participation of the endocrine system and both components of the autonomic nervous system. Experiments indicate an increased, compared to normal, entry of adrenaline into the blood during muscular work and an increase in the percentage of sugar content in the blood.
It was not possible to establish a direct relationship between the power of work and the amount of sugar in the blood. By examining the urine, an increased excretion of various nitrogen- and phosphorus-containing chemical substances was found, but certainly all of this is clearly insufficient to clearly understand the course of intermediate metabolism with respect to at least the main substances (proteins, carbohydrates and fats) during and after muscular work. Physiologists are accustomed to the amazing coordination that is manifested in the human body at rest; during work, however, especially in a trained* person, the coordination of the activities of various body systems reaches a very high degree of perfection due to the activity of a number of coordinating mechanisms. Coordination is carried out by means of the cerebral and autonomic nervous systems and the accessory apparatus of the latter (endocrine system). One can with full right say that the organism as a whole appears with special distinctness precisely when performing complex and difficult muscular work.
K. Kekcheev. Basic mechanical phenomena in M., methods of their registration and representation. The basic mechanical property observed in M. is the variability of its length, which constitutes the basis of all its motor properties. Upon closer examination of this phenomenon, it turns out that the length of M. changes as a result of a very large number and variety of causes, both purely physical and physiological. These causes and their effects have not yet been brought into any systematic theory, and the mechanics of M. continues to remain the subject of numerous experimental investigations. Changes in the length of M. are studied mostly on the muscles of frogs (usually m. sartorius or m. gastrocnemius), which depending on the experimental setup are either completely isolated, or are prepared along with the n. ischiadicus, or finally are kept in situ, with only the distal end being prepared and connected to the recording instrument. The recording of changes in muscle length is usually carried out with the help of a myograph, which is a stand with two hooks or clamps to which the ends of the M. being studied are attached. One of the hooks is immovable, while the other is connected in one way or another

Figure 1. Photomyogram of a single muscle twitch of a frog muscle (Bethe and Happel). The signs + and - indicate the points of application of the electrodes. The upper broken line is the moment of irritation. In the photograph, it is clearly visible that the excitation of the muscle (increase in elastic properties) begins at the lower end of the M., near the cathode: the lower segments begin to contract first and pull the upper segments toward themselves, temporarily stretching them.
with a pen that writes on a smoked drum (kymograph). In some varieties of myograph (Schenck, Blix, Kries), both ends of the M. are connected to movable writing instruments. Bethe (A. Bethe) used an extremely delicate method of optical recording to analyze changes in the length of M., interesting in that with its help not only the total length of the entire M. is recorded, but also changes in the lengths of individual consecutive segments of the muscle. Bethe places the M., divided along its length into a series of segments to which black silk threads are attached, in the focal plane of a projection apparatus and casts its translucent image onto a slit photocymograph, in which the displacements of each of the silk threads appear as curves (fig. 1). Along with changes in length, M. is also capable of experiencing changes in tension, i.e., force tending to bring its ends together. Since there is no action without reaction, the tension of an M. not loaded by any stretching force is always zero, whatever its physiological state. Tension arises in the muscle only in the presence of a stretching force (whereas a change in length may not require any external force) and in magnitude is always determined by the magnitude of this external force, although the cause of the tension may have nothing to do with this force. The tension of a muscle is measured by the most diverse dynamometers (see Dynamometry). As a dynamometer for the frog M., modifications of the myograph are used. In those cases where it is desired to record changes in the tension of M. at constant length (isometric processes in M., see below), it is fixed between two almost immovable clamps, one of which is connected to a stiff dynamometric spring and to a writing pen. If it is desired to record simultaneously both changes in length and changes in tension of M., it is loaded on the movable end either 1) with a weight or a lever with a large moment of inertia, the tension being calculated from the acceleration imparted to M. by this weight, or 2) with a compliant spring (auxotonic process, see below), the resistance of which is taken into account by the degree of stretching it undergoes, or finally 3) with a significant weight which M. can lift only relatively slowly, so that the weight acts on it mainly by its weight and not by its inertia (isotonic process, see below). In addition to changes in length and tension, M. also experiences changes in cross-sectional area and transverse hardness. The cross-sectional area of M. increases when it shortens and decreases when it lengthens, since the volume of M. does not change during these processes. Transverse hardness changes in parallel with the change in the longitudinal tension of M. Indeed, if M. overcomes an external stretching force, this means that it with an equal and opposite force tends to shorten. Meanwhile, simultaneous transverse compression by another external force decreases its cross-sectional area, i.e., tends to lengthen M.; therefore such compression encounters resistance in the tension of M. Both of these phenomena are thus so-called derivative, secondary manifestations of both basic processes and therefore represent

little theoretical interest; however, since M. in the intact organism is much more accessible to transverse influences than to longitudinal ones, both of the mentioned phenomena are widely used to evaluate the states of M. in humans. The registration of transverse expansions of M., which should testify to its contractions, was carried out on humans by Bruzhes and Johnen and applied by them to the study of labor processes; the diagram of Bruzhes' installation is given in fig. 2. The registration of transverse hardness (sclerometry) has found wide application for the approximate evaluation of the longitudinal tension of M. in humans (Noyons, Uexkull, Exner Tandler, Mangold) and consists in measuring the depth to which a weight placed on it (more precisely on the skin over it) sinks into M. This static sclerometry has in the present time given way to a more perfect dynamic (ballistic) one, which measures the elastic recoil exerted by M. on a hammer striking it (Noyons, Gildemeister, Bethe, Steinhausen, Richter). The hammer is suspended like a pendulum and strikes with a completely definite force against a plate applied to the skin over M., and the duration of its contact with the plate is measured. The two main variables of muscle mechanics - length and tension - are connected by a close internal relationship. If one studies both of these variables in parallel on an unexcited (resting) M., it turns out that the tension of M. increases with an increase in its length (stretching) and decreases with the shortening of M. The relationship between both variables can be represented graphically in the form of the so-called length and tension diagram (Langen-Spannungsdiagramm, D.-N.-diagram) (see e.g. fig. 3). A more careful study of the D.-N.-diagram of passive stretching of a resting M. shows that even in this particular case the relationship between both quantities is not constant: the D.-N.-diagram changes depending on the speed of stretching and on the biochemical state (e.g. degree of fatigue-Fig. 3. Length and tension diagram (D.-N.-diagram) of an isolated muscleЖdea" niiili, on the contrary, with gradual shortening of M. The point of intersection of the D.-N.-diagram curve with the abscissa axis obviously represents the state of M. in which its tension is zero, i.e., the state to which M. comes when no external forces act on it. The length of M. in this state is designated as the resting length (Ruhelange), or the natural length of M. Both these names are not quite appropriate, since the rest of M. is usually contrasted with its excitation, and the opposition of the same word to tension can lead to errors; as for the natural length, we cannot speak of it when we cannot recognize other lengths of M. as unnatural. The most correct thing would be to call this length the unstressed, or free length of the muscle. The relationship between length and tension is even more complex and peculiar if one turns to the study of it in M. excited to one degree or another. Here there is such a chaotic variety of experimental material that it is difficult to sort out

in the
it is not yet possible with sufficient certainty at the present time. (The main theoretical premises for the analysis of these facts are given below.) The measurement of the relationship between length and tension of M. can be performed both on an isolated M. and on a living subject (human). In the frog's M., this measurement can be carried out in two ways. The first method, introduced by Weber and used by Marey, Haycraft, Wertheim, Christen (Marey, Haycraft, Wertheim, Christen), and others, consists in gradually loading or unloading a resting or tetanized M. with weights, while the tip of the M., connected to a writing pen, itself records on a kymograph the changes in its length caused by different loads (i.e., tensions). The curves obtained by these methods have often been subjected to theoretical analysis, but these analytical attempts have not yet led to consistent results. In any case, it can be considered a fact that the L.-T. diagram of passive stretching is undoubtedly not a straight line, i.e., that there is no proportionality between the increase in length and the increase in tension, which is characteristic over wide ranges of inelastic bodies and known as Hooke's law (Hooke). As can be seen from Figure 3, the L.-T. diagram is a curved line (Wertheim incorrectly took it for a hyperbola), which, as the length of the M. increases, goes increasingly steeply upward *. This means that the more a muscle is stretched, the more strongly it resists further stretching. If to lengthen the M. by 1 mm it is sufficient to increase the load by 1 g, then to lengthen it by another 1 mm will require a further increase in load not by 1, but by 1.2 or 1.5 g. True, these experiments on an isolated M. are carried out in much wider ranges of stretching than is possible in a living organism, and it is undoubtedly the case that in the latter case the deviation of the muscle from Hooke's law during passive stretching is small. Experiments making it possible to obtain the L.-T. diagram of M. are also possible on a living human. Spiegel balanced the leg of a raised leg of a person lying on their back with the help of a lever with weights, and then by hanging weights to the leg itself, he caused passive flexion of the knee and thus stretching of the m. quadriceps femoris, the tension of which was estimated by the weight of the hung weights. By this method, the tension of the studied M. could be brought up to 8-9 kg. Vereschagin applied a similar setup, but much more successfully chose as the experimental M. the group of posterior thigh muscles (mm. biceps fem., semitendinosus and semimembranosus), taking advantage of the fact that these muscles, passing over two joints at once, can be passively stretched to incomparably greater lengths when the hip joint is bent: up to 115% of the original length (taken as 100%) and up to 70-80 kg of tension. This setup is shown in Figure 4a. The setups of Spiegel and Vereschagin were used by the authors to study muscle tone (see Tone)-a phenomenon understood very differently by various researchers, but recently increasingly identified with the elastic state of an unexcited M., i.e., with a syndrome characterized precisely by the L.-T. diagram of longitudinal stretchability of the muscle. It must be emphasized that the similarity between the L.-T. diagram of a living toned M. (Fig. 46) and the same diagram of an isolated M. (Fig. 6) should not be understood in

Figure 4a. Vereschagin's setup for measuring muscle tone.
the sense of complete identity. An isolated M. does not experience any nerve influences, whereas in the whole organism the M. is continuously under the influence of the central and autonomic nervous system, and its L.-T. diagram reflects in itself the synthesis of local (purely muscular) and central phenomena. Among such central, tonic phenomena is, for example, the hump of initial inhibition (Bremsung) in Fig. 46, which is absent in an isolated muscle. The methods of both authors have found wide application in neurological clinics, allowing for reliable quantitative assessment of pathological tone of M. The second method for quantitative determination of the elastic properties of M., applied so far only to the frog's M., was developed by Bethe, Steinhausen, and Richter (Steinhausen, Richter) and is based on the mentioned ballistic principle. In Richter's ballistic elastometer (Fig. 5), the M. is attached at one end to a fixed clamp, at the other to the hook of pendulum B, against which hammer A strikes. The blow of the hammer deflects the pendulum and thus suddenly stretches the M.; after this, the hammer flies back, and the pendulum, attracted by the stretched M., makes one or two swings and then calms down. As Steinhausen showed, the duration of the first swing stands in a very simple relationship to the measure of elasticity (the so-called modulus of elasticity) of the M.; the difference, however, between the duration of the first deflection of the pendulum and the duration of its return is just as closely related to the internal friction of the M., or muscle viscosity (see below). The advantage of the ballistic method over the gradual loading method is that in sudden, shock-like stretching of the M., the influence of the previous prolonged stretched state, which very noticeably changes the character of the L.-T. diagram, is excluded. Theoretical premises for the mechanics of M. Any body that gives an L.-T. diagram in which (as can be seen in Fig. 3) an increase in length is accompanied by an increase in tension is classified by mechanics as a longitudinally elastic body. M. is a longitudinally elastic body, although, as indicated above, it is not subject to Hooke's law of proportionality. The degree of elasticity of a body is characterized by the modulus of elasticity, or Hooke's modulus. The modulus of elasticity is the ratio of the increase in tension per unit of cross-sectional area (in kg per cm2 of the body's cross-section) to the relative increase in length accompanying this tension. If an M., stretched to 1/10 of its original (unstressed) length, shows a longitudinal tension of 0.8 kg per cm2, then the modulus of elasticity (more precisely-the average value of the modulus) of this M. is 0.8 : 1/10=8 kg/cm2. As mentioned above, this ratio, which determines the modulus of elasticity, is not the same for different stretches of the M.; the more the M. is stretched, the higher the value of the modulus. Therefore, the modulus of elasticity of M. cannot be expressed by a single number, as is possible, for example, for steel or rubber. At best, one can speak of the average value of the modulus, but even for this value, due to many contributing factors, various authors have obtained very poorly agreeing figures. Wundt (Wundt) gives for the M. of an adult human values from 35 to 86 kg/cm2, for the m. sterno-cleido-mast. of a dog-142 kg/cm2, for the M. of a frog-9.4 kg/cm2. Richter by the ballistic method found for the m. sartorius of a frog values from 5.2 to 9.4 kg/cm2. Measurements of tone of human M., made by Vereschagin, give figures approaching Richter's-10-12 kg/cm2. Stretching of M. requires expenditure of work not only to overcome the rapidly increasing tension, but also to overcome internal friction in the muscular substance. The work expended to overcome tension is returned back to the M. when it shortens (as the spring of a mechanism returns the work spent on its

winding) and is therefore called the reversible part of the work, whereas the expenditure to overcome friction irreversibly turns into heat. The internal friction of M., or muscle viscosity, depends on the speed of stretching or shortening of the M.: the faster the length of the M. changes, the greater the friction. Experiments to determine the coefficient of muscle viscosity (Steinhausen, Richter), i.e., the relationship between the speed of stretching and the force of resistance to friction, have not yet led to reliable results.
Figure 5. Richter's ballistic elastometer: A-hammer; B-pendulum; M-muscle; 5-writing pen. The hammer strikes plate 6 against plate 7. Muscle viscosity significantly affects the D.-N.-diagram of M. Let line I (figure 6) be the D.-N.-diagram of very slow stretching of M., in which viscous resistance is negligible. Then when the same M. is stretched at a noticeable speed, the D.-N.-diagram will follow line II, and during elastic shortening of M., it will return to zero along line III. Indeed, if static stretching of M. to magnitude A corresponds to static stress Aa, then when M. is stretched to the same magnitude at a noticeable speed, we will experience 1) the same static resistance Aa and 2) friction resistance ab, or in total resistance Ab, greater than Aa. During shortening, internal friction will resist the shortening of M. and thereby weaken its strength; therefore, when passing through length A during shortening, M. will exhibit stress which will be less than the static stress Aa by the magnitude ac, i.e. will be equal to Ac. From the nature of the D.-N.-diagram it follows that the area of the figure bounded by curves II and III represents in scale the irreversible work expended to overcome internal friction during the forward and reverse stroke of M.; all work expended on stretching M. will be represented by the area between curve II, the x-axis, and the extreme ordinate Bd, while the reversible part of work (returned by the muscle during shortening)-the area between curve III, the x-axis, and the ordinate Bd. The work of M., like that of any elastic body, occurs in two successive phases. In the 1st phase, accumulation of potential energy by the muscle occurs, in the second-its transformation into mechanical work. The sources of energy for the first phase may be different: elastic potential energy can accumulate in M. both due to previous passive stretching and due to an internal chemodynamic process occurring during excitation of M. and releasing a certain portion of mechanical energy. On the contrary, the source of energy for the second phase in all cases is the same-elastic potential energy of M. In other words, under identical external conditions, the course of muscle contraction will be completely identical, regardless of the sources that charged M. with energy in the first phase; the observed enormous diversity of forms of this course is determined exclusively by the diversity of external conditions accompanying the activity of M. (see below). Between an unexcited M., charged with energy due to previous passive stretching, and an excited M., having received an energy charge through a chemodynamic pathway, there is, however, a significant quantitative difference. Both unexcited and excited M. are elastic bodies, quite similar in their mechanical properties; however, the quantitative characteristics of the elastic properties of both these states of M. are different: 1) the free, or unstressed length of M. decreases during excitation. If an unloaded frog M. is placed in a Ringer-Locke solution to free it from the influence of its own weight and then subjected to tetanization through a nerve, it will shorten. 2) The modulus of elasticity increases during excitation. Like that of unexcited Mm, it varies at different degrees of stretching of M., so that in this case too the D.-N.-diagram has the form of a curve, but unlike the resting M.-this curve bends upward to a certain limit, after which it begins to go more and more gradually. D.-N.-diagrams of excited (I) and resting (II) M. are shown semi-schematically in fig. 7. The free length of excited M. is represented by point A, of resting M.-by point a. Up to point B, the steepness of curve 1 (i.e. the modulus of elasticity of excited muscle) increases, then begins to decrease. At point C it already compares with the steepness (c) of curve II, and at point D (the existence of this latter cannot be considered strictly proven) it becomes zero, i.e. the excited M., when stretched to length D, loses its elastic properties. Figure 6.
Figure 7. Figure 6. D.-N.-diagram of passive stretching and shortening of an isolated muscle. Figure 7. D.-N.-diagram of excited (I) and unexcited (II) muscle: A-free length of excited; a-of unexcited muscle. To the present day, between supporters and opponents of the "all or nothing" law (see) a heated discussion is being conducted as to whether the transition of elastic properties of M. from state II to state I occurs suddenly (by a jump) or gradually, in other words, whether intermediate states of the type of curve III (fig. 7) occur, even if only for very short times each time. This dispute has not yet received experimental resolution, although indirectly many facts speak in favor of a jump-like change. It should be noted that only experiments on a microscopically small section of one fiber can be decisive in this dispute. If one observes an entire multi-fiber M. over its entire length, then even if the change of states of each fiber occurs suddenly, it will inevitably be masked by the different timing of entry of individual fibers, as well as by the fact that both the excitation wave and the elastic wave propagate along M. not instantaneously. During tetanization of M., each new excitation shock transfers M. from state II to state I, after which together __ with the fall of the action current wave of M. it is obviously immediately again returned to state II. T.O. at a tetanization frequency of 50 impulses per second, M. that many times per second changes elastic state II to I and back. The fact that during this the length of the muscle does not manage to change that many times per second (at least noticeably to the eye) is explained exclusively by the internal friction of M., its viscosity, which does not allow the length of M. to change with the required speed and thus is an extremely useful property for the feasibility of tetanus. In fig. 8 it is very clearly seen how tetanization of the same frequency acts on a muscle with high viscosity (top) and with low viscosity (bottom). The curves of length and tension changes during tetanus (D.-N.-diagrams) for both cases in fig. 8 are given schematically in fig. 9 next to the main passive stretching curves I and II; a-tetanus of a viscous muscle; the area of the oval-work of one impulse; b-trembling of a less viscous muscle; the area of the oval-work of lifting and lowering a load. The influence of external conditions on muscle contraction. Relying on the basic D.-N.-diagram fig. 7, one can with great clarity trace the peculiarities of the course of muscle contraction under various conditions. The graphical representation of all these processes in the form of D.-N.-diagrams provides the best way to understand, at least in the most general terms, the chaotic abundance of experiments conducted on muscle contraction.-Figure 10 shows the isometric tension of M. (the phrase "isometric contraction" obviously makes no sense). In the unexcited state, the tension is zero, in the excited state it reaches magnitude P. Various cases of auxotonic contractions, i.e. those in which tension increases as the muscle shortens (for example when stretching a spring with a muscle), are shown in fig. 11. Line a represents a strictly auxotonic (ideal) case; line b-case of auxotonic contraction of a muscle with high viscosity. Since the increase in static tension of the spring in this case goes along line a, the excess b over a is "obviously quite analogous to the excess A over I (fig. 6), and the area between b and a represents the work of overcoming internal friction of the muscle.--Cases of isotonic contractions are shown in fig. 12. Curve a-slow (almost strictly isotonic) lifting of a large load P; b-faster lifting of a medium load Q. From the figure it is clear that this lifting is "isotonic" only in name. At the beginning of the lift, the muscle has to overcome 1) the weight of the load Q=lm, 2) its inertia st, proportional to acceleration, and 3) its own internal friction rs, depending on the speed of contraction. Additions (2) and (3) raise the initial tension

The displacement of the muscle by the amount rt over the tension sufficient for static support of the load Q. By the end of the ascent, the upward movement of the load slows down, and it stretches the muscle with a force that is less than its own weight by the amount uv. In connection with this, despite friction and the overall tension of the muscle b decreases. The useful work expended on lifting is measured by the rectangle mlkn or by the area mlswvkn, equal to it; the expenditure on internal friction is determined by the area Irkvwsl. The curve c depicts the changes in the inertial resistance of the load Q. The curve d of Fig. 12 corresponds to the case of throwing the load R, which during rapid contraction of the muscle flies over the equilibrium position and then performs one or two damped oscillations around this position. The useful work of lifting is the rectangle ochur, the work of friction is the area between the solid curve d and the dashed curve e. - Figure 13 characterizes contractions in which a load initially supported can be lifted only when the excited muscle has already developed tension equal to its weight. These contractions obviously begin strictly isometrically, and then follow the type of curves in Fig. 12. The line a is the lifting of the load P, the viscosity of the muscle is great; b is the lifting of a heavier load Q, the viscosity is small (throwing); c is an impossible load L (isometric tension).-On Fig. 14

D.-N.-diagrams: a-contraction from impact; b-contraction with initial delay. a is presented-contraction from impact (An-«chlagszuckung), in which a lightly loaded muscle first contracts to a certain length L, at which it hits an obstacle, forcing it to further tense isometrically (Schenck, B Их); b-contraction with initial delay (Aniangshemmung): the muscle is held until full tension is developed, and then released into flight with the load P. The area between part b' of this curve and the dashed curve is the expenditure on friction. Experiments of this type were conducted by A. Fick. The muscle as an organ and as an element of the bone o-m y i n e ch-nogo skeleton. The individual working elements of skeletal muscle are of the same type and obey the same laws in any muscle, but the whole muscle is not a simple bundle of fibrils: it is an organ in which the arrangement, connection, and combined effect of the action of fibrils can be very diverse depending on the function that this muscle has to perform. Since the modulus of elasticity determines the relationship between stresses and relative elongations of the muscle, it is obvious that with given elastic properties the absolute excursion of the end of the muscle will be the greater, the longer its fibers. On the other hand, again with given elastic properties, the overall tension of the muscle must change in proportion to the cross-sectional area (the number of parallel working fibers). Thus, the excursions of the end of the muscle are proportional to its length, the tensions are proportional to the cross-sectional area. Consequently, the work of the muscle, measured by the product of tension and distance traveled, is proportional to the product of the cross-sectional area of the muscle by its length, i.e., the volume of the muscle or the amount of contractile substance contained in it. - Figure 15 schematically depicts two completely equivalent muscles of different shape. Both these muscles have the same volume, therefore- the same power, and in addition the moment of their action on the joint is the same, since the three times stronger muscle is applied to a three times shorter lever arm.- As an attempt to evaluate the force of the muscle per unit cross-sectional area, mention should be made of experiments on the so-called absolute force of the muscle. According to Franke, the absolute force of the muscle is the greatest stress per 1 cm2 of cross-sectional area that the muscle can develop through tetanus under the most favorable conditions (i.e., at length B, Fig. 7). The imperfection of methods and some vagueness of the definition have led to not too consistent results among different authors (the main data-see in the table). However, the same total work (determined, as stated, by the volume, not the shape of the muscle) can be produced

in different ways: either as overcoming a small force over a long path or, conversely, as movement against a greater force over a short path. To the first type of work are adapted muscles with long fibers, usually spindle-shaped (e.g. m. biceps br.) or fan-shaped (e.g. m. temporalis); to the second type - short-fibered muscles with a large cross-section: parallel-fibered (e.g. m. rhomboideus) or pennate. (e.g. m. rectus femoris).-Figure 16 shows very clearly that the work performed by a pennate muscle (lifting a large load to a small height) and the equivalent spindle-shaped one (lifting a small load to a greater height) is the same. Indeed, if the weight of the pennate muscle consisted of two parts A and B, then the work of lifting the entire weight to the dashed position would not differ from the work of lifting only piece B and placing it on the upper side of the remaining in its original position-part A, and this is exactly what the1second muscle does. The various basic forms of 'cut' of the muscle are found in the body in: infinitely diverse combinations and variations (see Muscular system). Here we should turn to the general typical conditions of muscle work in the skeletal system. In the vast majority of cases, skeletal muscles have to perform the rotation of one skeletal part relative to another. Therefore, as in the mechanics of any rotation in general, the action of the muscle has to be characterized not by its tension itself, but by the so-called moment of tension relative to the axis of the joint it serves. The moment of tension is measured as the product of the longitudinal tension F (Fig. 17) by the arm of its action, i.e., by the length of the perpendicular R, dropped from the center of the joint to the longitudinal axis of the muscle. With a complex shape of the muscle and diverse directions of its fibers, as the tension of the muscle one has to take the resultant of the tensions of all its parts, and as the longitudinal axis of the muscle-the line of action of this resultant.-From Fig. 17 it is easy to see that with different positions Figure 16. Diagram illustrating the equality of work performed in different ways by a pennate and spindle-shaped muscle. and links the moment M. may turn out to be different even with the same longitudinal tension F, since the length of the action arm R changes from the displacement of the links. Usually the greatest value of the arm R corresponds approximately to a right angle between the links, and in this position the muscle can develop the greatest moment (and not the 'greatest force', as is usually said).



*%> The law of equality of action and reaction also applies to moments. According to this law, the moment of action of the M. on link B (Fig. 17) is equal and opposite to the moment of its action on link A. Therefore, the tension of one M. cannot yet determine which of the links will begin to move when it is tensed: for A to move, it is necessary to fix B, and vice versa (by an external force or some other M.); otherwise both links move towards each other. It is very important to understand this for the case of a muscle overcoming external forces. Let a load P be placed on the hand with the forearm horizontal (Fig. 18), which must be held. Two external forces act on the elbow joint: the moment of the load + PR and the moment of the weight of the forearm with the hand + pr. For equilibrium, the moment of the M. (elbow flexor) must be equal and opposite to their sum, +(PR+pr). But since, as stated above, the moment of the M. is bilateral, it will not only support the loaded forearm with the moment -(PR+pr), which is directly purposeful, but will also pull the shoulder forward in the direction of flexion with the same moment -(PR+pr). This is not only unnecessary but also harmful, because for maintaining equilibrium the shoulder must be immobile, but this M. is powerless to help in any way. To hold the shoulder, it is necessary to apply to it from the outside the same moment -(PR+pr); this has to be done by the muscular system of the scapula and shoulder girdle. But the action of these latter M. is again bilateral and in turn needs external support; moreover, in addition to the moment PR+pr coming from the forearm and hand with the load, a weight moment of the shoulder p'g' also acts on them, and for equilibrium of the entire system, a moment -(PR + pr + p'g') must act on these M. from the outside. Reasoning in this way, it is easy to see that when holding a load on the hand, not only the M. closest to it are tensed, but also many M. throughout the body-from the point of application of the external force of the load and up to the nearest external point of support (e.g., the support of the feet on the ground). The same thing is observed in the same order during movement, when M. overcome not the static force of gravity, but dynamic forces (friction, inertia, etc.). In all cases, the moments of M. increase from the periphery to the center due to the addition of new additional external moments p'g', p"g", etc. We give some figures representing the moments of muscles of different joints in some simplest processes, taking the moment of the M. of the wrist as a unit (Bernshtein, Popova).

The application of the law of action and reaction described above is also used to measure moments of M. on a person (Bernshtein). For this, the sum of the moments of all external forces is measured on one side or the other from the joint being studied. As stated, the resultant moment of all M. of this joint must be equal and opposite to the measured sum of external moments.

N. Bernstein. Electrical phenomena in M. The processes taking place in M. under conditions of its active state are accompanied by electrical phenomena, as was firmly established by Matteucci and Dubois-Reymond (see Bioelectric currents, Animal electricity). The electric currents arising in M. during its contraction are called action currents, in contrast to the resting current, which appears in a resting M. when its damaged part is connected through a galvanometer to its undamaged points (see Animal electricity). As is known, the action currents arising during tetanic contraction are so strong that with their help a second muscle can be irritated if its motor nerve is placed on the first. This phenomenon is called secondary contraction. When the capillary electrometer and string galvanometer were applied to the study of electrical phenomena in M., it was possible to show that in a single contraction there is a single electrical oscillation corresponding to the occurrence of a single wave of excitation, for example, under conditions of irritation of the nerve of a given muscle by a single make or break induction shock. The photographic recordings obtained at this time, or so-called electromyograms, make it possible to approach more closely the study of single electrical oscillations in M. The electrical process in a single impulse has a wave-like course. The descending part of the electrical oscillation is somewhat more stretched compared to the ascending part. The length of the electrical wave is less than the contractile wave and changes under the influence of temperature. As for the latent period of the electrical effect after the application of irritation, it passes very quickly. Some authors consider it equal to zero. The latent period is easier to detect when muscles are cooled. In the isometric regime of muscles, a steeper drop of the electrical curve is observed than in the isotonic one. According to Samoilov, contraction in the isotonic regime has an inhibitory effect on the magnitude of the electrical oscillation. Furthermore, it was found that the height of the electrical oscillation increases up to certain limits with the loading of M. by a weight. In tetanus, although the mechanical effect of contraction is continuous, the telephone and string galvanometer can easily detect the intermittent nature of this contraction. Namely, corresponding to the frequency of impulses entering the muscle and causing tetanic contraction, in the telephone, connected to the muscle by special electrodes, we have a corresponding number of membrane oscillations. In connection with this, Vvedensky established the concept of lability, by which he meant the ability of M. to give a certain number of electrical oscillations (action currents) per unit time at a known rhythm of irritation. When exciting M. from a nerve with an intermittent current with a period of 100 per second, Vvedensky established that the muscle gives 100 electrical oscillations only for a short time, and then it begins to transform the impulses entering it into a smaller number. Accordingly, instead of a given tone from 100 irritations per second (in the tuning fork-current interrupter circuit), we begin to hear a lower tone in the telephone. At a relatively higher frequency of irritations, a musical tone is not immediately obtained in the telephone, but a noise, which is replaced by a rumble, which depends on the muscle canceling out a series of impulses coming from the nerve by transformation (in the physiological sense). Partial blocking of excitation waves occurs, according to Vvedensky, in the myoneural transmission, at the endings of the motor nerve. Undoubtedly, the amplitude and frequency of electrical oscillations in the muscle change together with a change in the lability of the muscle, or - what is the same - together with an increase or decrease in the speed of processes occurring in M. Since as fatigue sets in the lability of the muscle decreases, the ability of the muscle to reproduce a given frequency of irritation in the form of electrical oscillations also decreases. The data obtained by Vvedensky with the help of the telephone later received brilliant confirmation in works with the string galvanometer, which makes it possible to photograph action currents. The ability of the muscle to transform indicates the manifestation of the muscle's own rhythm. The latter is easily detected when the muscle is irritated with a constant current. The electromyogram shows a series of electrical oscillations in the muscle in response to the passage of current through it. In the muscle of a turtle, the own rhythm of excitation is slower than in a frog. In a turtle, so-called absolute refractoriness, falling on the ascending part of the electrical curve, and a relative refractory stage at its descending part, can be easily observed at this rhythm. As expected, in warm-blooded animals the own rhythm is faster compared to cold-blooded ones. The study of action currents of skeletal muscle during voluntary movement has become very important. It sheds light on the rhythm of the central nervous system and in any case makes it possible to penetrate more deeply into the activity of the centers. The main hindering moments here are the above-mentioned transformation processes in the transmission of impulses from one physiological instrument to another and the difference in lability. From Vvedensky's data it is known that the nerve has the highest lability, or the ability to reproduce the rhythm of irritation; it is followed by the muscle. As for the centers and endings of the motor nerve, they show a certain similarity in their lability and stand below the nerve and muscle. This means that the phenomena of transformation, remodeling of the rhythm for passing impulses, are most likely to occur in the centers and in myoneural transmissions. The law of relative lability, established by Vvedensky in his work with the telephone, can have a guiding value in the study of the rhythm of the most diverse physiological instruments, up to and including the rhythm of the centers. Furthermore, it should be borne in mind that proprioceptive nerves must also have an influence on the electromyogram. When they are excluded, muscles usually show a lower frequency of electrical oscillations and greater regularity in their succession. The study of action currents of the muscle during voluntary contraction showed that voluntary contraction gives intermittent action currents of different periodicity, which is explained by the fact that 'in voluntary contraction, muscle fibers receive impulses not simultaneously, but some earlier, others later, as if the nerve centers are firing at random'. This is Brücke's characteristic comparison. When conducting action currents from the human forearm to a string galvanometer during voluntary contraction, Piper found the main rhythm to be 50 per second, with additional oscillations (Nebenzacken) added to the basic ones. In fatigue, the number of main waves decreases to 25-35 per second. Cobb and Forbes studied fatigue with an ergograph and observed a decrease in the number of main waves to 9-20 per second with an increase in their amplitude. The study of electrical phenomena in pathological states of the musculature showed the following. In Wilson's disease, a muscle in a state of rigor shows very small action currents, which apparently stand in no relation to the intensity of contraction. In Thomson's disease, after the cessation of voluntary contraction, the muscle remains in a state of tension for some time, with oscillating action currents being observed, as if voluntary innervation were still continuing. When studying ataxia in humans, Weizsäcker found a certain decrease in the frequency of electrical oscillations during voluntary movement compared to normal. As for tonic contractions, in contrast to tetanus, they apparently are not accompanied by intermittent action currents. Thus, Wachholder was unable to observe action currents during tone when studying the development of narcosis in cats. Whether there is a long negative oscillation during tone remains unclear for now. Under conditions of maintaining tension in the human muscle, significantly smaller action currents are observed than with the slightest movement. With small tensions, the action currents are remarkably small. For the theory of electrical phenomena in the muscle, the question of the relationship between the electrical phenomenon and the mechanical effect of contraction is of deep interest. It should be noted that this question has not yet been resolved. There are only the following data: when the action current of the muscle captured by the string galvanometer is recorded photographically together with the curve of a single muscle contraction, in the rough conditions of the experiment it is observed that the electrical effect precedes the muscle contraction and falls on its latent period. One might think that the electrical process is the result of preparatory chemical processes, which then cause the muscle contraction itself. However, by registering the mechanical effect of contraction by an improved method, Einthoven found that the latter almost coincides with the beginning of the electrical one. On this basis, Einthoven believes that the action current is connected with the contractile process itself.
After Bishop and Gilson, using cathode rays and an oscilloscope, found that only the descending part of the electrical monophasic curve coincides with the mechanical effect of a single contraction. The authors consider that only this part of the curve is due to the contractile process itself, while its ascending part is due to the excitation wave. Thus, since the magnitude of the action current does not always change in parallel with contraction, Beritov believes that the electrical effect is due to the formation of other chemical substances, and not those on which contraction directly depends. In connection with the question raised, the electrical phenomena in muscle poisoning by veratrine are of particular interest. As is known, under the action of this poison, after the usual contraction, a prolonged shortening of the muscle occurs. From Garten's experiments, it can be seen that this prolonged contraction is accompanied by a prolonged action current. Under conditions of severe poisoning, no oscillatory currents are observed in the muscle. If the above data of Samoylov are compared with the data of Bishop and Gilson, it can be assumed that the contractile process is a kind of compensatory process aimed at restoring the disturbed equilibrium in the muscle cell. And therefore, under normal conditions, the electrical and contractile processes are in the closest connection with each other, n. Rezyvyakov. III. Chemical statics and dynamics of M. I. Chemical composition of M. Striated and smooth M. differ in composition, and these differences are more quantitative than qualitative. The composition of striated M. is better studied, while less attention has been paid to the chemistry of smooth muscle. Composition of striated M. The composition of M. includes proteins, fats, carbohydrates, a number of extractive nitrogenous and non-nitrogenous substances, and inorganic substances. - Protein substances. Striated M. contains several protein substances, to which various authors gave different names. These proteins participate in the process of clotting of muscle plasma, which various authors also explained differently. The proteins of M. and their participation in clotting were most fully studied by Fürth, whose nomenclature is now the most widespread. Muscle plasma can be squeezed out with a press from fresh, just-cut-out animal M. in the form of a yellowish liquid. This muscle plasma, like blood plasma, clots, and the plasma of cold-blooded animals clots quickly, while the plasma of warm-blooded animals clots slowly; after clotting of the plasma, muscle serum remains, which has an acidic reaction to litmus. The clotting of muscle plasma depends on the transformation of two proteins contained in the plasma, named by Fürth myosin and myogen; they turn into insoluble protein substances myosin-fibrin and myogen-fibrin, of which the clot formed during the clotting of muscle plasma consists. According to Fürth, during the clotting of myogen, soluble myogen-fibrin is first formed, which then turns into insoluble myogen-fibrin; therefore, clotting can be represented by the following scheme: Myogen Myosin
♦ ^ 4.
Soluble myogen-fibrin Myosin-fibrin
I. Insoluble myogen-fibrin. When juice is pressed from dead muscles, muscle serum is immediately obtained. Myogen (myosinogen, myoprotein) is not precipitated when its solution is dialyzed in a medium salt solution. Myogen, especially in the presence of salts and at elevated temperatures, converts into soluble myogen-fibrin, and then into insoluble myogen-fibrin. Myogen is the main protein of muscle plasma (70-80% of all proteins). In the plasma of frog and fish muscles, there is much soluble myogen-fibrin. Myosin is a typical globulin, dissolving in neutral salt solutions and precipitating when its solutions are diluted with water. The usual method of obtaining myosin from dead muscles is to extract it with a 5-10% solution of ammonium chloride and precipitate it from the solution by diluting with water. Muscle stroma. After removing all proteins soluble in water and in ammonium chloride solution, a residue remains—the muscle stroma, consisting mainly of insoluble proteins, so-called myostromin. Fat is always present in muscles, indeed in small quantities (about 1%). The fat content in some animals can reach 30% (eel). It also increases significantly in fatty degeneration of muscles. Of phosphatides, lecithin is mainly contained in muscles. In heart muscles, there are more phosphatides (lecithin and cephalin) than in limb muscles. Cholesterol is always present in muscles (from 0.03% to 0.23%). Phosphatides and cholesterol are part of the sarcoplasm. According to Embden, red muscles are richer in phosphatides and cholesterol, as well as in sarcoplasm, than white muscles, which are capable of faster contractions but at the same time fatigue more quickly. Glycogen is the reserve carbohydrate of muscles. Its reserves vary and depend on a number of conditions, primarily on food and on the physical work performed by animals; with good nutrition and at rest, there is much glycogen in muscles, while during starvation or during heavy muscular work, its content sharply decreases. In humans, muscles contain on average 0.4% glycogen. Lactacidogen (see) is an intermediate product of carbohydrate metabolism in muscles. Striated muscles, different in their function, contain different amounts of lactacidogen: white muscles contain more of it, red muscles less. Inositol (see) is present in muscles in small quantities; its role is not clarified. One of the intermediate products of the transformation of hexose, which is cleaved off from lactacidogen, is lactic acid, which can be detected in muscles in larger or smaller quantities depending on the functional state of the muscle. Extractive nitrogenous substances of muscles. In striated muscles, various non-protein (extractive) nitrogenous substances are contained; namely, according to Fürth and Schwarz, in 100 g of muscles there are from 0.327 to 0.328 g of these extractive substances. Of this amount, ammonia accounts for 4.5-7%, purine substances for 6.1-11.1%, creatine and creatinine for 26.5-37.1%, carnosine fraction for 30.3-36.3%, carnitine, methylguanidine and other similar bases for 8.2-15.3%, urea, polypeptides, amino acids for 8.3-16%. Creatine (see) is contained in different amounts in different muscles; limb muscles are richer in it than heart muscles. Furthermore, white limb muscles are richer in creatine than red muscles, e.g., the m. biceps femoris of a rabbit is richer in creatine than the m. semitendinosus (Table 1). Homonymous muscles of different animals (dogs, rabbits) also differ in creatine content. But if one takes homonymous muscles or groups of homonymous muscles of different individuals of the same species (e.g., different rabbits), then provided that nutrition and all other living conditions are normal, the creatine content in them differs greatly in constancy. Therefore, for example, various researchers, determining the creatine content in the muscles of the hind leg of rabbits, always found the same value—0.522%. The creatine content in muscles can increase under the influence of a number of causes, e.g., during starvation (at its beginning), during avitaminosis, after severe cooling, after poisoning with phosphorus, guanidine, after extirpation of the parathyroid glands, during tetany, during training, etc. The content of creatine phosphate (see Creatine) increases in acute forms of polyneuritis, during training, after poisoning with phosphorus and tetrahydro-β-naphthylamine, etc. Creatinine (see) is contained in muscles in very small quantities: e.g., in human muscles only 0.003-0.007%. Carnosine (see) is contained in muscles of different animals in fairly large quantities, namely—from 0.05% to 0.3%. There are only first preliminary indications regarding changes in carnosine content in muscles under different conditions, e.g., an indication of a decrease in content during starvation and an increase during training. Carnitine (see Meat extract) is contained in muscles in small quantities (from 0% to 0.03%). Adenosine phosphoric acid, or adenylic acid (Embden) during deamination, which takes place, for example, during muscle contraction, is converted into inosinic acid; the latter was isolated from meat extract by Liebig.

Of the inorganic substances of muscles, the largest are phosphoric acids (H3PO4) and salts of pyrophosphoric acid (H4P2O7), the presence of which in muscles was recently established by Lohmann. Pyrophosphoric acid is found in muscles in combination with adenylic acid in the form of adenylenepyrophosphoric acid. Among anions, Cl and SO4 are also contained in muscles, and among cations K, Na, Mg, Ca, Fe (Table 2). Table 3 shows data on the content of the above-mentioned substances in muscles of different animals. The chemical composition of smooth muscles has been studied less than that of striated muscles, and the available data mainly concern the muscles of the stomach and bladder. In smooth muscles, protein substances similar to myosin and myogen, as well as nucleoprotein, are found. Furthermore, glycogen, lactacidogen, inositol, creatine, creatine phosphate, creatinine, purine bases, and lactic acid have been found in their composition. There is much less creatine, creatine phosphate, and lactacidogen in smooth muscles than in striated muscles (Table 4). Table 4.

P. Rigor mortis of muscles. Rigor mortis of muscles occurs when the blood supply to muscles ceases, either after the death of the animal, or after the muscles are cut out of the animal's body, or as a result of ligation of the corresponding artery. In rigor mortis, lactic acid accumulates in muscles, and their reaction becomes acidic. Under the influence of lactic acid, due to the swelling of the colloidal anisotropic substance of muscle fibers, muscles shorten, become hard and opaque. Subsequently, the rigor mortis muscles become soft again; this can be explained by the fact that a further increase in lactic acid content causes protein coagulation, which in turn reduces the ability of colloids to bind water and release water. Some authors hold different views on the phenomena occurring during rigor mortis. Thermal rigor develops under the influence of high temperature; in warm-blooded animals it occurs at 50°, and in frog muscles at 40°. Chemical rigor occurs when isolated muscles are immersed in distilled water and when acted upon by acids of chloroform, ether, alcohol, many alkaloids, etc.
A characteristic feature of rigor mortis is not only the formation of lactic acid, but also the transformation of pyrophosphoric acid into orthophosphoric acid (Loman). III. Metabolism and energy in M. The beginning of work on the chemistry of muscle contraction was laid by the research of Fletcher and Hopkins, who established that the activity of M. is always accompanied by the formation of lactic acid in them, which, as later shown by Meyerhof, disappears during the relaxation of M. Then Embden showed that this process goes through the stage of formation of lactacidogen. Until recently, in the study of the chemical dynamics of M., almost exclusive attention was paid to the exchange of carbohydrates, attributing to them the main role. Glucose, formed in M. from glycogen, before turning into lactic acid, combines with phosphoric acid, forming lactacidogen (see), which is thus an intermediate product of carbohydrate metabolism in M. From it, in further transformations, lactic acid is formed [lactacidogen breaks down into glucose and phosphoric acid, and glucose, passing through further intermediate stages (see Carbohydrate metabolism), turns into lactic acid]. The formation of lactic acid occurs under anaerobic conditions: muscle contraction is not associated with oxygen consumption; oxygen consumption is associated with the recovery period of M. (rest). During recovery, the lactic acid formed during contraction disappears in such a way that part of it (1/4) is further oxidized to CO2 and H2O, and part (3/4) is again converted into glucose and glycogen. Thus, in working M., the formation and disappearance of lactic acid occurs. [This process of disappearance of lactic acid is also the result of two opposite processes (see below).] As work continues, a struggle takes place between these two opposite processes; during intense work, the second process cannot keep up with the first, and the content of lactic acid in M. increases. M. becomes tired, but its working capacity is still preserved. With the accumulation of a certain amount of lactic acid, complete fatigue sets in, and M. stop working. During the ensuing rest period, lactic acid disappears from M. as a result of two opposite, mutually related processes: due to the oxidation of two molecules of lactic acid, six other molecules are converted into glycogen. After rest, working capacity returns to the muscle, but the rested M. is no longer the same muscle that was at the beginning of its work. If isolated M. work in an oxygen-free environment, they quickly reach a state of complete exhaustion, simultaneously with the accumulation of large amounts of lactic acid in them; recovery of muscle working capacity is only possible in the presence of oxygen, since only under aerobic conditions does the oxidation of lactic acid occur. The ratio between the total amount of lactic acid disappearing during rest and the amount of lactic acid oxidizing during the same period is not a constant value; this coefficient------------------------------------- depends on ^
oxidized lactic acid depends on the state of the M., their fatigue, training, etc., and can vary within limits from 6/1 to 3/g. The carbohydrate metabolism in M. consists, according to Meyerhof, of two phases: the first phase is anaerobic (work phase); during it, glycogen, passing through the stage of lacticidogen formation, breaks down into molecules of lactic acid: 4/n (C6H10O5)n + 4H2O + 4H3PO4 → 4C3H6O3. H3PO4 + 4H2O → 8C3H6O3 + 4H3PO4; the second phase is aerobic (recovery phase); during it all 8 molecules of lactic acid disappear (2 of its molecules are oxidized to CO2 and H2O, and 6 molecules are again converted to lacticidogen and glycogen): 8C3H6O3 + 3H3PO4 + 6O2 → 3C6H11O5.H3PO4 + 6CO2 + 9H2O → 3/n (C6H10O5)n + 3H3PO4 + 6CO2 + 9H2O. Thus, during contraction of M., exothermic processes of carbohydrate metabolism occur, and during rest, endothermic phases. -Energy exchange in connection with these carbohydrate metabolism processes is depicted by Meyerhof and Hill (Hill) as follows: heat production occurs both during contraction and during rest, with 50% of energy falling on the contraction period and 50% on the recovery period. The heat of contraction, released during the work period, is not formed immediately at the beginning of contraction, but in 3 phases: the first phase of heat production coincides with the beginning of contraction, the second phase of less significant heat production - with the period of maintaining the achieved tension (shortening), and the third phase (phase of more significant heat production) - with the period of relaxation. Only after this, in the presence of oxygen, does heat production associated with the recovery of M. begin, stretching over a longer period. Meyerhof believes that lactic acid is formed during contraction of M. Embden thinks that part of the lactic acid formed during muscle activity arises after contraction of M., and therefore looks upon it as a substance causing relaxation of M. The role of creatine phosphoric acid in the dynamics of M. Recent research has shown that in the energy exchange in M. not only carbohydrates participate. Meyerhof previously recognized that the exothermic process of converting carbohydrates into lactic acid gives only a large part of the energy released (in the form of work and heat) during contraction of M., and after the discovery of creatine phosphoric acid, he thought that the remaining part of energy is given by the process of its breakdown. Indeed, according to the latest data, an important role should be attributed to creatine phosphoric acid in the chemistry of muscle activity; during contraction of M. it breaks down into creatine and orthophosphoric acid and is then resynthesized; this synthesis can proceed under anaerobic conditions, i.e., can occur during the first phase of contraction. The breakdown of creatine phosphoric acid is an exothermic reaction, with 110-120 calories being released for each gram of phosphoric acid cleaved off. Rapidly contracting (white) M. contain more creatine phosphoric acid than slowly working (red) ones; during training of M., associated with an increase in their work capacity, the content of creatine phosphoric acid in them increases; these facts indicate a certain role of creatine phosphoric acid in the chemical dynamics of M. If it is made impossible to form lactic acid during contraction of M. (for example, by the action of monoiodoacetic acid on M.), then all energy is formed at the expense of the breakdown of creatine phosphoric acid; it is even assumed that under normal conditions in M. during contraction, the breakdown of creatine phosphoric acid occurs, providing energy for it, while the carbohydrate metabolism processes may participate indirectly (for example, providing energy for the reverse synthesis). In any case, the processes of breakdown of creatine phosphoric acid and the process of converting glucose into lactic acid should be considered important in terms of energy in M. On the contrary, the processes of glycogen breakdown, breakdown of lacticidogen into glucose and phosphoric acid, as well as the processes of transformation of other phosphorus compounds occurring in M. - adenosine phosphoric and pyrophosphoric acids - do not play an energetic role. Transformations of adenylic acid in M. Adenosine phosphoric acid is also a substance, the breakdown of which is associated with the work of M.; during contraction of M. (at the beginning of contraction), ammonia is cleaved off from adenosine phosphoric acid, and as a result of such deamination, it is converted into hypoxanthine phosphoric or inosine acid. During relaxation of M., the reverse synthesis of adenosine phosphoric acid occurs by the reverse attachment of ammonia to inosine acid. In the reverse synthesis of adenylic acid, according to Parnas, not the ammonia that was released during deamination of adenylic acid is attached to inosine acid, but ammonia formed in M. during deamination of amino acids. - Pyrophosphoric acid is present in M. in combination with adenylic acid in the form of adenylophosphoric acid. Pyrophosphoric acid can be enzymatically cleaved into two molecules of orthophosphoric acid: H4P2O7 + H2O → 2H3PO4; such breakdown occurs during prolonged work, during rigor mortis, and during autolysis. The role of pyrophosphoric acid during contraction of M. has not yet been clarified; it is assumed that during contraction, synthesis of pyrophosphoric acid occurs, and during rest - breakdown. For the role of lacticidogen, see Lacticidogen. Thus, in the working M., the following chemical processes occur: breakdown of creatine phosphoric acid into creatine and phosphoric acid, breakdown of carbohydrates with formation of lactic acid passing through the stage of lacticidogen formation and its breakdown into glucose and phosphoric acid; oxidation of lactic acid; deamination of adenylopyrophosphoric acid and reverse amination of inosine acid and probably still other, as yet unknown processes. All these processes do not occur in isolation, but are undoubtedly interconnected with each other; it is quite probable that endothermic processes of synthesis of one substance proceed at the expense of the exothermic breakdown of another substance. The orthophosphoric acid formed in M. during their contraction as a result of the breakdown of creatine phosphoric and hexose phosphoric acids does not all go to the reverse synthesis of these substances; part of it passes from M. into the blood and then into the urine. For muscle activity, as is evident from the above, not only carbohydrates and nitrogenous substances, but also phosphoric acid are necessary; it is therefore understandable that the external delivery of phosphoric acid, especially during heavy physical work, has a favorable effect on the work capacity of M. All the above-described chemical processes cause a number of physicochemical changes in the muscles. First of all, the beginning of shortening of M. is characterized by a change in the concentration of hydrogen ions; namely, the breakdown of lacticidogenu as well as the breakdown of creatine phosphoric acid and deamination of adenylic acid cause a decrease in the concentration of hydrogen ions, i.e., shift the reaction in the direction of alkalinity at the site of these processes (probably in the interfibrillar colloids). This decrease in the concentration of hydrogen ions Embden considers the moment causing contraction, and the subsequent increase in the concentration of hydrogen ions due mainly to the formation of lactic acid - the moment causing relaxation of M. The second characteristic physicochemical process during muscle contraction Embden considers the sudden increase in the permeability of the boundary layer of muscle fibers. Both these processes are closely related to each other. -The influence of training on the chemical composition of M. Training, increasing the work capacity of M., causes certain changes in their chemistry. Trained M. are found to contain more glycogen, creatine, and creatine phosphoric acid. On the content of lacticidogen, on the contrary, training has no effect.

Pectoralis major: pars clavicularis, pars sterno-costalis (superior and inferior) and pars abdominalis (major pectoral M.). Syn.: portio clavicularis-m. cleido-brachialis. The M. represents a large mass of muscle bundles located on the anterior-upper part of the chest, between the clavicle, sternum and upper six ribs on one side and the humerus on the other. These bundles are divided according to their place of origin into three or four large or small independent parts: upper, or clavicular, middle-sternocostal (upper and lower) and lower-abdominal. All these bundles converge in a radiate manner, become tendinous, and the tendon of the clavicular portion becomes superficial, while the tendons of the other portions approach under it; thus the tendon has the shape of a very narrow bag, open to the shoulder joint and filled with adipose tissue.
The shape of the M. changes depending on the position of the arm. The M. is covered in the upper part by skin, fascia superficialis and platysma, in the middle by skin, fascia superficialis and the mammary gland, and in the lower part only by skin and fascia superficialis; in turn, the M. covers mm. pectoralis minor, subclavius, intercostales; finally, the M. contacts its upper edge with m. deltoideus, and its lower edge with mm. obliquus abdominis externus and serratus anterior. Origin: pars clavicularis: clavicle - its medial half or even two-thirds; pars sterno-costalis: sternum - membrana sterni and II-VI (VII) ribs - their cartilaginous parts; pars abdominalis: vagina m. recti abdominis - its anterior lamella.

Variations are so frequent that it is difficult to determine the typical form of the M. Complete absence is often (22-27%, according to other authors less frequently, Le Double accepts an average of 11.2%); 2) the entire M. may be fleshy or only the middle part, or conversely only the upper or lower part may be bipennate, it may be entirely tendinous; 3) it may originate from fascia antibrachii, lacertus fibrosus, m. flexor carpi ulnaris or radialis, humerus, radius and ulna; 4) it may attach already to fascia antibrachii, thenar, carpus, m. abductor pollicis longus; 5) the M. may be double or only the tendon or the whole thing, both parts may attach to different points or originate from different places, e.g. one on ulna, the other on radius. pudenda externa and circumflexa femoris medialis from a. femoralis and a. obturatoria from a. hypogastrica.

Adducts and rotates the arm inward; when the arm is in horizontal position, it brings it to a sagittal direction (anteversion), lowers the raised one; pars clavicularis may raise the shoulder ('shrug the shoulders'). With a fixed limb, movements of the thoracic cage (deep breathing) and of the whole body (climbing with the help of hands) are possible. 1) Isolated from other anomalies of the muscular system, complete absence of the M. is extremely rare, more often complete or underdevelopment of one or another part: only pars clavicularis or pars clavicularis and abdominalis or pars sterno-costalis and abdominalis may remain; 2) partial defects of partis sterno-costalis are frequent in the presence of m. sternalis; pars abdominalis is particularly often reduced; 3) sharp boundaries between individual parts are not uncommon; 4) the origin of pars clavicularis may be insignificant and limited only to the sternal end of the clavicle, but more often, on the contrary, pars clavicularis extends to m. deltoideus, from which it is then difficult to separate; 5) pars sterno-costalis may originate from the tendon of m. sternocleidomastoidei or cross its antimere; fusion of both antimers along the midline and transition without boundary into each other is possible; 6) the origin of pars abdominalis may descend to the first inscriptio tendinea; connection with m. rectus, origin from fascia mm. obliqui externi abdominis and serrati anterioris and even from the IX intercostal space between the teeth of m. serrati anterioris is possible; 7) often the superficial bundles of pars sterno-costalis and pars clavicularis send their tendon fibers into the fascia of the arm - m. tensor fasciae brachialis - along sulcus bicipitalis medialis to epicondylus medialis, even through m. deltoideus into its fascia; 8) occasionally the terminal tendon splits and passes the tendon of the biceps M. (caput longum); this splitting bundle attaches to crista tuberculi majoris or minoris; the splitting may be with each of the three portions; the tendon of pars abdominalis often passes into fascia coraco-brachialis (m. chondro-coracoideus), into the capsule of the shoulder joint, bursa subdeltoidea, tendon of m. supraspinati; in the presence of a 'muscular subclavian arch' its tendon attachment often abuts the aberrant tendon of m. pectoralis major; on the other 00 1 Latin and Russian name.

In the simplest case M. begins tendinously or muscularly from III rib, from the sternal end of one or many cartilaginous ribs (up to seven), from the edge of the sternum or processus xiphoideus or from the sheath of the rectus M. of the abdomen. With stronger development M. touches the fascia of mm. pectoralis majoris, obliqui externi abdominis, the tendon or the m. sterno-cleido-mastoideus itself. The form of M. is also very diverse: from spindle-shaped to wide triangular or elliptical. The direction may also vary from longitudinal, craniolateral and caudolateral. Attachment may vary: tendinously to membrana sterni, corpus, angu-lus or manubrium; or, if M. continues cranially into m. sterno-cleido-mastoideus, fascia m. pectoralis majcris by one or several bundles. Antimers may be symmetrical and asymmetrical, merge with each other, cross to the opposite side, cross in the form of an X, form a star; M. reaches particularly large development in case of underdevelopment of partis sternalis m. pectoralis majoris. With very large development M. is noticeable in a living person under the skin. Frequency of M. on average in Europeans 4.4%, in Negroes 5.5%, in Japanese, according to Adashi, 14.3%, according to Koganei 6.7%, in anencephalics 48%. 1) The origin of M. may reach on the sternum to the second cartilaginous rib; 2) attachment of M. may be: on the clavicle at pars trapezoides lig. coraco-clavicularis, on lig. coraco-acromiale; 3) with bilateral development the tendon fibers may cross to the opposite side and thus a single M. is obtained-m. interclavicularis an-ticus digastricus 1) M. may be on one or both sides; 2) antimers may connect with each other-this is m. interclayicularis (sup.) (Hyrtl), which lies ventrally from lig. interclaviculare; 3) once (Vestarini-Cresi) this M. attached to the medial edge of m. cleido-mastoidei; 4) related to this M. are: a) m. sterno-fascialis, s. sterno-cervicalis-from manubrium sterni (dorsally from m. sterno-mastoidus) into the fascia of trigoni omo-hyoidei; b) m. supraclavicularis singularis-from manubrium sterni and clavicle, its dorsal surface-to the tendon of the deep isolated bundle of m. cleido-mastoidei; c) m. cleido-hyoideus-from the cranial surface of clavicle to the body of hyoid bone A. sterno-cleido-mastoidea from a. carotis externa, as well as from it branches aa. occipitalis, auricularis posterior, thyreoidea superior and from a. subclavia-a. cervicalis superficialis and a. transversa colli Rotates the head to the opposite side and upward, and its side downward, when both antimers contract the head and neck bend; if they are extended by the contraction of back M., then the chin is raised upward and the head is thrown back.
With the head fixed, it raises the chest and the girdle of the upper extremities. 1) Complete separation of both portions is quite frequent (the n. accessorius passes between them); 2) complete fusion, on the contrary, is quite rare; 3) absence of the entire M. is very rare (coincides with absence of the clavicle); absence of caput sternale is also rare; 4) occasionally the number of portions increases to 3 or 4; these will be: mm. sterno-occipitalis, sterno-mastoideus, cleido-occipitalis and cleido-mastoideus; 5) there may be bundles between it and m. trapezius; 6) sometimes there may be an independent m. cleido-occipitalis from the dorsal surface of the clavicle to linea nuchae superior; 7) caput claviculare may sometimes attach to processus transversus epistrophei; 8) inscriptiones tendineae are described on caput sternale; 9) an aberrant bundle from the ventral edge of M. may go: a) to the angle of the lower jaw; b) to lig. stylo-mandibulare; c) to os tympanicum; d) from the dorsal edge to the fascia of the neck region; e) to the auricle; f) to the parotid gland (m. mastoido-parotidien Chudzinski); g) to os hyoideum. №№ Latin and Russian names.
